Perfect Sunday - bake a cake and homemade ice-cream

 Hello All, It was so much fun yesterday. I think best time spend with my little one and husband. I was planning to bake a cake for a very long time in the microwave. But for the fast years, I had not gone through the recipe and was just postponing it as I was too busy with my daily work. But then, yesterday, husband darling got into the mood of making ice - cream for my daughter. I was just giving them the beater and teaching them how to use it. Then, looking at my daughter's face, I thought - "well! its getting postponed from quite a few years. let me try it out again." When I told her, "Guess What!!! Mummy is going to bake a cake for all of us especially for you." Her face just lit up. That moment I wouldn't be able to describe in words. It was finally the moment arrived. I made a simple sponge cake which all of us relished. It was just yummmm. A quiet evening but an eventful. The joy of baking which had vanished somewhere, came back to me after many  man...

Why do parents of today's generation have a feeling that children don't respect or listen to them

Image
  Marriage is considered to be a sacred institution. When children come in the picture, the bond gets even more stronger between the partners. Their entire attention shifts on to the kid and they try to give best of the best to their children. But in today's world, most of the parents complain about one thing and it is about children not listening to them or not respecting them enough from a very young age. It sounds weird. But yes, I have heard many saying "Oh God! I used to listen to my dad and never ask a question on his decisions." Now God only knows how true is that. But anyway, sometimes children are often spoilt by the parents unknowingly. Children are like flowers. If taken are care of, they blossom otherwise wither away. Here can be some of the reasons why children do not listen or respond to parents: 1. Parents do not give them attention: Children want their parents to listen to what they are saying or watch and appreciate what they are doing. All of us love t...

How to be different or unique from others

Image
  How to be different from others 1. Make decisions on your own and stick to them. Listen to the discussions going on around you. Be a good listener but go ahead with what you feel is right and make your own decision. Do not depend on others for the choices you make and be proud and hold yourself responsible for whatever choices you make. 2. Be honest to yourself. Never lie to yourself. Do not try to emulate others. Just be yourself and be proud of who you are. One should be honest not just to others but also to oneself as you yourself are answerable to your conscious  at the end of the day. 3. Accept your flaws. Not everyone is perfect. We are all humans, not superhumans or God. We must admit to ourselves the flaws that we have and try to work on improving ourselves. Don't try to act as a perfect person as it leads to being dishonest and displaying your artificial self out there in the society and to yourself. 4. Respect Yourself. Learn to adore and respect yourself. God has ...

How good a strategy was for Rahul Gandhi to not contest from Amethi, his bastion.

How good a 'Strategy' was for Rahul Gandhi to not contest from Amethi, his bastion. The General Elections - 2024 The 2024 general elections in India has not just sprung surprises in the form of candidates but also the political parties are serving all kinds of dishes in various forms to the people to show how good is one compared to the other. The elections are indeed a festival for the people of the country with every nook and corner of the country decorated with different flags of the political parties, the posters and cut outs of the party leaders. Every citizen discusses about the politics that one observe on television or read in newspapers but is smart enough not to open his or her pack of cards.   The Seat Fight The entire country knows from where the Prime Minister will fight the elections but everyone in the country was waiting to know which place will  Mr. Rahul Gandhi contest from. As the phase 1 and 2 got over, the media was asking just one question  - "W...

How To Stay Motivated Everyday

How To Stay Motivated Everyday "Life Doesn't Allow Us To Go Back And Fix What  We Have Done Wrong In The Past, But It Does Allow For Us To Live Each Day Better, Than Our Last."    - Gautam Buddha We are all human beings. All of us have good and bad days. We all want to enjoy, spend time with our family. One bad day, can sometimes, ruin the little happy moments which we had gathered throughout the day. Life is not very easy. But we have to go on. Move on. Embrace life as it is and Change. The sun comes up everyday. Each and everyday brings with it new hopes and gives us a chance to live our dreams. Even if yesterday was a bad day, a wise person leaves behind the past and builds a resolve to move ahead.  Why Is It Necessary To Stay Motivated? If we get bogged down by looking at the lows in our life, we will never be able to stand again. The lesson that I have learnt from children is that no matter what just go on. Do not allow any person or circumstance demotivate you....

Easy Yoga Poses After Pregnancy for New Mothers

    "A Mother's arms are more comforting than anyone else's". - Princess Diana This post is for not only for all the new mothers but also for all the moms who juggle with work, children and personal space for themselves.  Being a mother is a boon which God has bestowed on us. Carrying a life inside our bodies and then giving birth to that beautiful, little life is indeed a blessing. I can say all this from the wonderful experience of being a mother.  Our bodies transform, undergo changes after being a mother. It takes us a few months to get into the normal hustle - bustle of our life. We happily embrace sleepless nights, heaps of laundry, and brains being attentive to just one small little creation - 'our baby'. But, the reward is precious -   million dollar smile, warm snuggles, love and warmth from the little ones. Finding time from the daily routine gets tougher as each day passes through. The 'Me Time' vanishes in thin air. Our bodies require a lot...

How to Improve your Memory - Brain Power

Image
 In our speech, sometimes, casually we say, "hey use your brain . " Sometimes, when being forgetful, ask ourselves, "have I forgotten something?"  Brain is a storeroom of memories, powerhouse of intelligence, architect of our creativity, adviser to our body and its movements, analyst of our senses and source of our emotions.  It contains a depository of memories right from our childhood to present and continues to save it all, till the we exist. We study and play as children, work when we are adults, pursue our hobbies, etc. For performing all these tasks, our brain needs to remain sharp and attentive. These abilities of the brain helps us in executing our actions to perfection.   It is necessary for all of us to sharpen our memory power and boost the functioning of our brain. As we age, it doesn't remain as sharp as it used to be in the past. Instead of complaining about old age, start right from your hay days to program your skills. I hope all of you will find...

Success Hacks

Image
 Success is something which everyone craves for. But no one actually knows, how to define it. It is defined in various terms by the people we meet or live with. At each step, right from childhood to any point in life, we see or listen to different versions of leading a successful life. We often look at famous people and define it in those terms. At other times, we watch it through the lens of rich people, that is, in monetary terms. There are different versions and also various means of achieving it.  From what I have gathered and observed around, I see it when we live life in our own terms with no compromises. No lectures on this but yes some hacks: 1. Love Yourself: This is the most important thing in life which we all forget while leading this busy life. We care for others but stop taking care of ourselves. We tend to look after our needs but often forget that we will life and enjoy it only when we love ourselves. So stop cribbing about the dont's and look at the things y...
