Veena put the lovely Rajnigandha sticks in the vase. The vase she had mended with care, so it could hold water again. NOt everything that gets broken is useless.
Urvashi had been working hard for 6 years now and she had been left far behind than Aditya. But she was sure she deserved her success this time. As she opened the appraisal letter she was glad to see that her hard work was finally rewarded.
Milkshake in a Straw – SipahhAs the name says, it truly is an Ahh! I just discovered the best and easiest way to make milkshakes and am going to share it with you.
Say hello to Sipahh! A unique milk flavoring straw from Australia, which has less than ½ tsp of sugar in each serving. All this time, I had been adding various milk flavoring powders to my milk to make it tasty and was consuming loads of sugar with it, now I can just use Sipahh instead. Amazing isn’t it?
Recently, I was sent this amazing box of milk flavoring straws in 5 different flavours and trust me I have been bowled over. It is tasty, healthy, with no artificial colors, flavors or preservatives, with less than ½ tsp of sugar in each serving and is a super fun way to make milk interesting. AND, my baby absolutely loved it. He has been asking for ‘Malk’ ever since he had these. 😊
What is it ?
It is a straw filled with flavored beads. Each straw is filled with these colorful balls which imparts a unique flavor to your everyday milk and makes it tastier for your kids. As you sip, the pellets inside the straw dissolve and infuse a tasty flavor into your milk. Here are some of the things to note:
. The straws are filled with flavored beads
. These can be used with reduced fat dairy milk, soy milk or any other milk alternative
. These can be used with both room temperature and cold milk
. 250 ml serving of milk with this straw has less than ½ tsp of sugar
. It comes in various flavors; thus there is a whole variety of tastes to choose from, my personal favorite being Lamington Dreams
. All these flavors have a very subtle taste. They enhance and don’t overpower the taste of milk.
. Each straw is made of stiff plastic, with a mesh on both sides through which the milk passes.
. Each straw can be used one time only
.These are gluten-free
. Excellent for kids who may be fussy about drinking milk normally
. Adult supervision is recommended
What I liked best ?
Apart from the fact that it makes the milk tasty and flavorsome without having to add the sugar loaded flavoring agents, there are a couple more things I liked.
It is so much easier and mess-free. No adding, swirling, or shaking it up in a blender. You can just plop the straw into the glass of milk for your child and sit back while they slurp up the milky goodness. Lazy Mom Win 😆
It is lower in sugar than the other widely available ready-to-drink flavored milks and flavored syrups.
It is as flavorsome for an adult as for a kid, so yeah, even you can enjoy your glass of milk with some flavor without worrying about extra sugar.
Lastly, it is a milkshake in a straw, what more can I say? 😊
My baby liked it so much that he did a little dance upon drinking it, and kept coming back for more. He kept saying ‘Nam Nam’, which means ‘super tasty’ in baby language.😄
Here’s a link to the video I made of him drinking it :
So let your kids enjoy the Sipahh flavoured milk and let the goodness of milk fulfill their nutritional needs too.
Messy bun and yoga pants, that is my style statement nowadays. And guess what, I like it. There is a reason why ‘moms’ adopt this style, coz it is smart, and easy. So to the younger me who was like ” I am never going to be the messy bun and leggings mama” “Girl !!! Weren’t you stupid 😂” When you are a mom, you realize the beauty of this style. It lets you run around a toddler who is always high, without worrying about your dress getting creased, it lets you walk out and get groceries at a minute’s notice from the shop downstairs. It lets you run down to the park when the toddler has had his nap and needs his exercise.
Of course, Elegant flowy gowns are a thing of beauty, but not so much when my toddly hangs on its neckline and pulls it till it gets stretched beyond recognition.
Of course I like the satin night gowns with frills, but i cant be bothered to change in and out of it everytime I have to go pick up my kid, or drop him, or go get veggies for his soup and dinner.
Of course, i love to style and braid my hair, but my toddly thinks that yanking the pins forcefully out of mommy’s hair is the greatest 🙈.
Of course I love my beautiful tops and blouses, but the tshirt can withstand many washes which are required thanks to the innumerable stains of mysterious origins that pop up on it. And frankly, I never iron these, just take it out and put it on
And well in this hot weather having my hair high up is the only way i can survive. So shorts and tees and yoga pants and buns and ponytails are my staple styles. Dressing up is great but frankly it happens less frequently now.
I mean face it, leggings and messy bun are there for a reason and that is because moms know how to do it right. 😆. Yay ! rocking my average mommying in my yoga pants. Do you mommas love the messy bun too?
Ramesh was a respectable member of his society. A locality which had been his home always. The Road which led to it, did the same road not lead away too?
Priya had been saving up for a beautiful purse like the other girls had. It will make her as stylish as them and they would finally accept her as one of them.
Lalit was intrigued and fascinated by Vinay’s lamp. The small boy, had no such light in his life. It was his friend Vinay who would dust away some dirt and with it a whole lot of darkness.
Here is a review and picture of my recent puchases from @carters from @firstcryindia. Two sets of 2 piece Top & Shortalls with dungaree style straps, and 2 tshirts, perfect for the summers and a very bright and cute prints. These pieces are Cotton & Machine Washable, I always prefer machine washables as I really hate the hassle of hand wash or dry cleaning required clothes and baby A’s clothes need a wash every time he wears them.
The one pictured below is the Dark blue & Yellow 2 piece Top & Shortall
The top is very bright and adorable and the metal buttons on the shortalls look very good. The print is adorable with small airplanes on it. Both the dungarees are very easy to use as there are romper style buttons for a quick diaper change and you don’t have to open the whole dress for a diaper change. One of the reasons I avoid dungarees during travel or while going out is the problem of diaper change. But these two are pretty easy to use. And dungarees look so cute.
It is very comfortable too for baby A.
I loved boths sets and it looks adorable on baby
⏺ Top 100% Cotton
⏺ Shortalls 100% Terry Cotton
⏺ Metal Buttons
⏺ Pants have romper style buttons for easy diaper change
⏺ Dungarees style straps
⏺ Machine Washable
The model was not very willing to pose as he had other things to do; namely chewing on bad quality plastic water bottles. The ones I have a habit of collecting whenever I fly or visit a hotel. I have quite a collection of such bottles. And baby A knows where they are kept and takes them out to chew on regularly, as he has yanked off that drawer’s child latch already. Featured here are two such bottles; One is from Madarin Hotel Singapore another one is from the closed Kingfisher Airlines i think 🤔. Well, from ensuring that I only use BPA free containers for him; when at all i have to use them, to not caring if he eats crap as long as it is not actual crap. I am rocking my average mom journey. Parenting fail 😂
Along with these I also bought two t shirts for the tiny tyke. Both cotton and have very cute designs.
The material is very good on both and these two are machine washable too.
It is really hard for me to buy cute clothes for baby A, not many brands cater to this need, whereas it is pretty easy to buy clothes for girls. Carter’s is thus my highly favourite brand given that it has a lot of adorable designs and their quality is superb.
Nothing but the best for the baby, right? Also keep a lookout for discounts, I bought these from Firstcry.com with a pretty decent discount. Carter’s is available on Firstcry site
Om picked up the orange peels and went outside. he had never eaten an orange in his life. He was an orphan. The little boy was sad because he knew that he will never get to eat one eve either
Meera was a very good employee and loved her job. She went and had a baby, she had not expected that when she came back she will reflect as another person unto others.
Boy stalks girl, Boy follows girl, Boy makes unwanted advances, Boy confesses his love. One day girl falls in love too and they live happily ever after. so many stories have been told like that. my story is one such, which waits for its happily ever after
