Ghee Making... DIY

Ghee Making... DIY Hi all!! I’m back again with another interesting yummy healthy food for your little ones... When I was a kid... my mom used to feed me mostly ghee rice in my house... but when I used to have my food in my grandmas house... I would taste the same Ghee... at first I thought that it was a product of the same brand that both my mom and my grand mom used to buy in common... But, to my surprise it was both homemade... and the taste would be exactly the same in both the places... As I grew I started asking my mom for the recipe and hoped that one day I will be able to make exactly the same as my mom makes it... And one day “ tada “ ... I made it... and I felt so happy and proud that it’s passed on to me... it tasted exactly the same... and my efforts paid off when my kids would eat the ghee mixed with rice... mixed with the chutney powders for it to go with our typical Indian breakfasts like Idli, dosa or even roti ( chapati )... The method and ing...

Almond ( Badam ) for cough

Almond ( Badam ) for Cough ... Absolutely, you read it right...  Almond (  Badam ) is a dry fruit which has been used all through these years as a snack... Women, mostly use Almond as a sweet garnish... they would soak the Almond overnight and the next day, peel out the skin... cut it into slices and either add them to the sweets or garnish them with it... For long, my friends would always complain on a regular basis... that their children’s cough is something which goes away with some antibiotics and cough syrups... but it’s back again within a short period of time... They were not willing to continue the syrups for a longer period of time... neither do the doctors suggest it...  So, I gave them this brilliant idea... cause this is what I do for my kids... rather than giving them syrups regularly... I make this cough resistance recipe myself at home and give it to my kids... this not only helps them in getting rid of the continuous cough, it is a ...

Curd Making... DIY

Curd Making... DIY When I see my Mom setting curd, step by step... and the formula is just so perfect... that the Milk can’t get away but to turn into Curd... the procedure and the method that my mom follows never changes even a bit... no  matter how many number of times she keeps the Curd to set... the method remains exactly the same... Perrrrrfect.... I have always wanted to make it myself... cause the curd that we make at home will always be healthy... and added to it the one thing that I have noticed about kids is that... whatever their mother makes... be it a simple curd or just a single Chapati... kids will relish and eat it... Hmmmm... This ones for my mom...

I’m sure you are definitely surprised reading the 3rd point.. Yes... you read it right... the first time you star...

Curd... dahi... for the stomach...

Curd... Dahi... for the stomach... Curd  is an amazing invention that’s transformed from Milk... So, we can say Milk transforms into curd after a very simple yet complex procedure... In every culture, curd is eaten either before food, or it’s eaten mixed into food, or it’s eaten after food... be it morning, afternoon or night... In some families curd is a part of main course meals... food is never served without curd... We have always been hearing about the benefits of curd... definitely it is very much beneficial, as it’s a probiotic food... Kids are given a spoon of curd before going for their exams... Grown ups are fed a spoon of curd by their mom’s when they have to go out for any important work... but why? The reason being ... curd is a probiotic food... when we eat curd... it keeps our guts healthy... we will not get a stomach upset... what is the link between keeping stomach healthy when we go out for any work? Hmmm ... throughout my life, my father a...

Olive Oil for Pain

Olive Oil for Pain.... Olive oil has been giving innumerable benefits over the centuries. It has always proved to be one among the best oils for the treatment of Pain related problems in our day to day life. If I start listing the benefits of Olive Oil for pain alone, then the list would be endless. So, I’m sharing my real life experience and knowledge about this oil in the best possible way. Firstly , let me talk about how it begins...these pains actually start in a negligible manner, but later on in the long run, turn into severe illness and leads to Surgery, which will be the only option available... Secondly , I had always wondered as to why my parents never underwent something called as minor or major surgeries... the reason being, they made use of the little things in life that are easily available, gave in their time and effort to keep themselves fit.... and never ignored their little problems, nor used over the counter medicines for immediate relief... Hmm...

Common Cold...

Common Cold Regular Problems and its Home Remedy... I am a mother of Three Kids, blessed with it... my kids have been administered with regular antibiotics for the treatment of common cold and any other illness...  Few months back, I had a chat with my friend and discussed about the regular intake of antibiotics. I had also read articles on how antibiotics can harm liver and kidney in the long run... after reviewing the pros and cons of antibiotics I decided to stop taking too many antibiotics.. As of my life experience I have observed that Common cold is a very regular illness same as the name suggests... and mostly moms keep themselves busy treating this common illness which passes from one person to another infecting almost the whole family and returns back to where it started from all over again. So, the cycle keeps going on... And if, it’s a large family of many number of children, it’s a 24/7, 365 days process round the clock... hard to imagine as to the tasks d...
