  • Dear world, I'm told today is children's day. What does that even mean to you? A gathering of parents and kids in a park? A speech from the mighty man himself who rules the country? Giving them gifts to make them feel special?do the children's themselves know what the day really means? To the curious, here is what it means as per the old trusty, wiki. Oh sorry, did you think I'll quote it here, nope😊go educate yourself on what it really means As far as I'm concerned, when I see the children who suffer and are still suffering while I write this message here. I don't know about you world but i really dont feel like celebrating. Not until you can tell me the little innocent one's around the world are safely tucked in their own beds with their belly, full of a home cooked meal. Every single child. Can you? NO,I don't think so. We have nothing to celebrate. Closer to home, dammit!(excuse me) Why do you have to make my life difficult! parenting is already hard, do I need to also buy them gifts or show them a good time to make them feel special? How do I answer my little one when she says,"mama today is children's day, do i get a gift?" Why do you commercialize everything. How will they be satisfied with my hugs and kisses, my love when you've brainwashed them to expect gifts? I won't do it, I'll probably hurt my kids by gently refusing to buy them anything but I won't do it. if you insist on making a big fuss, I'll make a yearly pledge on this day. "To my darling kids, I pledge to love you and be there for you as long as you need me. I will always be proud of you, in my eyes and dada's you will always be the baby with tiny hands and feet we bought home. Where ever you end up travelling in the world, know that you will always have a place to rest your head, safe in our arms and home. We love you all just as you are. And remember, if life gives you lemons mama and dada will be right there with you making lemonade" this is my pledge, there world, i hope you are happy now? On a lighter note my recipe for pressure cooker biryani is up on the blog. It's a great pne pot meal to make on weekends. I hope you try it. #thoughts #thinkingoutloud #abm
  • Sundays, the day I dread and love at the same time. It's when I laze about making dozens of short reminders to accomplish through the week. Small lists, small goals. My family shake their head and make remarks on how I even work with a messy table and the chaos I surround myself in. Well, I tell them it's my organised chaos. What can they expect from a left hander and a Geminine? Last week it was my eldest's turn to ask me this question(yes, they take turns). Aah, the benefits of being young and thinking they know everything. I had to remind her, with all the chaos I surround myself how I've managed to bring up the four of them, dish out three meals a day + feed a great dane who seems to be forever hungry, manage the home front, keep them hale and hearty and a few other tiny million things that come up with a family while I've got my own little blog to run that any food blogger will tell you takes most of our days but do it because that's passion and dedication.alhamdulillah. Outcome was silence and I hope new found respect and understanding, I forever hope. So don't let anyone tell you how to run the life you're given(even family). Be humble , Do whatever it takes to rock and rule your tiny world. For yourself and only you. Be a little selfish, it's ok. Do what you like not what people expect ypu to like Concentrate only on the good and do what it takes to achieve them. That's all I needed to say folks. That said, here's an easy recipe for your Sunday meals😊. It's also a great way to get the kids to eat their spinach. Recipe is up on the blog today. #foodforthought @thefeedfeed.glutenfree @thefeedfeed #recipe #glutenfreevegan #mom #momthoughts #vegans #cheflife #cook #instafood #foodies #huffpostgram #yahoofood #foodblogger #realcooks #instagood #foodpics #thinkingoutloud #f52grams #homemadefood #lowcarb #30minutes #easylikesundaymorning #goodeats #insta #vscofood #foodphoto #kitchenbowl
