Kids ,snack and nutrition

Being a mom I find it very difficult to keep a balance between nutrition and taste for my kids. Sometimes it is almost impossible to make them eat as anything which is nutritious will hardly make them motivated to eat. So whatever I cook for my kids I cook them in such a way that they are highly colorful and attractive . Kids generally like colors and multiple taste in one recipe. Today I am going to share combo fruit salad for toddlers . For this the ingredients u need are...

 Banana-1
 Strawberry-1
Grapes- 4-5 pcs
Fresh cream- 2-3 tbs
Kiwi fruit- 1/4th  of a fruit
Pomegranate- little bit

One actually have to do nothing except cutting these fruits in small pieces and mixing it with fresh cream.( This receipe is for one toddler only, the amout of fruits can be varied as per his /her likes and dislikes, this receipe is made to be eaten  fresh and preferably should not be stored )


Too much of salt and sugar should be avoided in baby food as the natural flavors are enough for them. Colorful presentation of food always entice them for eating , through my experience i have learnt that kids wanna be self sufficient they want to eat themselves and they really hate being spoon feeded or being  forced to eat. Mothers please don't force your child to eat . Let them feel hungry and be hungry so that they can eat well over stuffing your kid may hamper his digestion and made him feel lethargic.
Tell your kid some interesting story while you are making them eat and just see the magic.

BUSINESS OF EMOTIONS

Everyday every second I see emotions selling,either it be some daily soap ,or news channel or a roadside hoarding.Everyone in the market understands so well that it is extremely easy to market emotions than marketing products, I hardly see advertisements which show usability and features of the products rather than capitalizing on the emotional appeals.despite being the most intelligent animal on earth ,we are still so susceptible for emotional deception.T.V commercials have influenced our mind and psychology in such a way we are captivated in clutched in just 20 seconds and thats their win.

This is not the end i happen to visit one of my relatives in hospital who underwent a surgery and when the surgeon came out of O.T his words were ; despite the surgery being tricky and time consuming it went on well ,the moment he said this he laid the foundation for justification of his exorbiant fees and he did it so smoothly.

Though emotions make ultimate decisions,they can be judged effectively by our analytical skills,thinking capablities and decision making.

BIG IS BEAUTIFUL ?????

Being born and bought up in a small town ,Ranchi i have always been fascinated by the word BIG. Big building, big malls, big size vehicles,big apartments , big school, big college and many more bigs has always attracted  my thoughts,In my childhood I use to think that if my father would have been a big man ,we would have been living in a large bungalow and traveling in a big car  and shopping in big malls traveling across all the big cities of the country. Now I laugh at these childhood thoughts of mine but still still cant deny the charisma of BIG.ya its true that Big word spell bounds, If it would not have been then think why there is craze of buying big plasma T.V, big refrigerators with not only dual doors but four doors, big cars (one can see toyota innova inspite of very less advertising is the one of the top selling muv just beacuse if its big size).

Even our big business hunks and gyan gurus always emphasizes on thinking big ,creating big and doing big after all everyone knows only big gets noticed. there is a race all around to create  Big ,Bigger and biggest. Companies are spending crores ,recently they opend a largest mall in bangalore in banerghatta which is incomparable to any of the other mall here . When i read it in  newspaper i only thought its just the charisma of Big.To become Big and great has created a blind race which is consuming so much of valuable resource .

Now when we are getting limited of resources we have to stop and think , think of getting out of this Big syndrome or else i am completely clueless where our next generation will land into ?

WHY CONFUSION IS SO IMPORTANT

Today i had a long discussion with Jai on confusion, Jai has always supported confusion in a different manner.He logically says confusion is always good,its good for new thoughts and new possibilities.whenever u are at the verge of taking a decision its creates a  barren land where u can crop up whatever you want,that barren land is totally yours where anything could be sowed and anything could be reaped .confusion gives you a space for trial and testing of all alternatives. Confusion stokes the creativity.If one is in confused state of mind that means he is fueling or feeding his creativity bug, scope of innovation is more in this state of mind.
He gave me the example of many scientist ,and one impressive one was that of Albert Einstein, it is said that ,that man was always confused but no one in this universe can deny his contributions . So confusion is important or not he left it to me . Even i am confused whether confusion is good or bad.Could my blog readers extend a helping hand by giving their point of view?

A SHIP IN HARBOUR IS SAFE -BUT THAT IS NOT WHAT SHIPS ARE FOR

Being safe and playing safe is something which everyone of us wants but is this really good for us. Everyone of us including me  always try to be diplomatic in order to be safe or on a safer side , but then i use to wonder  sometimes that taking risks ,being straight forward is so so difficult for almost everyone of us. recently i started some stock trading , everyday while purchasing i have a peculiar palpable feeling of............ shall i take this stock or not, shall i wait so that it may go down and at the end i resulted taking nothing. Is this happening with me only or it happens with everyone ? I don't know but i know this much that human psychology is averted to risks, i have been a die hard fan of GEETA and Geeta says .........................karmanya wa dhikarastya ma faleshu kadachana........................means we should be only focussed on our karma and rest fruits of the karma we should not worry about. this is too easy to read but absolutely difficult to follow .Believe me i have tried to follow it always but have never been successful, Everytime i do something i first think of the outputs and thinking of outputs makes me effortless.

I have decided i will make my ship sail no matters where it goes and where it reaches , at least i will give my ship the space for what it has been made for . i know my ship also wants to sail ,sail under the endless sky and above the endless ocean.Who knows my ship will reach the shore one day and yes that day will b my day , a day of victory , a day to relish that taking risk has paid me returns.
