yes, you are right Most of the mothers feed children with some unhealthy snacks just before a meal or an hour before lunch. This is not good What they should know is they should allow only liquids such as some nicely cut fruits or juices, healthy drinks if the children ask for before their lunch or meal as it becomes a part of their food. Even if they do not each much for their lunch or meals it does not matter and mothers need not worry. Old people were quite strict in not allowing their kids or toddlers to eat any snacks just an hour before their meals or lunch timings.

Hi Peach? How have you been. Merry Christmas and happy New year. Yes,I so much agree with your post to feed the child every meal interval to let them grow fast, have healthy body and always on the go. Once a child is not feed in between meals, I notice, he/ she is weak, but when feed with the right food, the child is so lively. A child does not like to play if hungry and he / she keeps on crying searching for the answer of the feeling why feel that way. Some children touch their belly as sign that they are hungry. There are mothers that do not care that is why there are so many mal- nourished kids.

The kids at home, the sons of my sister drink milk twice at in between meals. They are also forced to eat solid to always have good health.

I have learned a good lesson during my journey to Varanasi. We should eat an item at where it should be eaten.
When I am reading this blog I felt something was striking in my mind as somewhere I heard this name. Yes…it is in the train while going to Varanasi. The vendor was busy with his business. He was carrying a big basket and there were many items meant for taking as snacks. I was waiting for some light tiffin as I had no breakfast while getting into the train. I asked for these items with the vendor. He told me that they are not on the train and advised me freely to go for some snacks available with him.
I asked him to suggest a good and nice snack. He said “You go for Potatoe Pattis.They are fresh and are full of vegetables”. I took two without any idea.
I tasted one along with a sauce (chilly). It was really great. I finished another one also.
But, the effect is that I could not take my lunch when it was served to me. The only reason was that the Potatoe patties were very strong enough to be digested though they were not served with Onion dip.
After reaching Varanasi during a casual conversation I told my friend about them. He took me to a restaurant and there I tasted the real Potatoe Patties. Yes, They are really great. They are very nice than hose I had those in the train. During my return journey, I could not prefer them when they were offered to me as I tasted the real Potatoe Patties.
The Potatoe Patties should never be preferred while making a train journey. Always prefer eating them in some nice restaurants only.

My partner in New Zealand is a happy loner. He prefers to be alone with his pet cat now.He has a son and is separated from his dad.But what I noticed that there is always association of word blue in his emails, Skype, Facebook, plus, his clothes ,brief, Polo-shirt, t-shirt, pajamas, pants, jogging pants, all in blue. I wonder why he likes but. I never dare to ask him why , but all I know is , he is happy to be alone.In fact, he changed his mind from being marriageable to non-marriageable. That made me sick when he told me that he changed his mind to remain a non-marrying type.I think those who like to live alone pretend to be happy when actually not happy. Man is a social being and he needs someone to talk to. Having gadgets and other things never equal the happiness felt when there is human to be along with, to be happy with and to share some thoughts, problems and heartaches.

All I can say is, I can never live alone. I will be lonely of alone living in a house. I need someone to be with. It is not enough to just watch TV and do on line activities, so weird, but I cannot blame those whose preference is to live alone. They are loners and I believe they are cowards to face challenges of life just like my foreigner partner.

Living alone is an art This is the real meaning of life. Living alone is a challenge. One who overcomes it can take up any kind of challenge and achieve it with a great ease and comfort
Yes, I agree with you that there are many who are living alone and are happy. Living alone is not a sin. If we say that man is a social animal and he needs some company in life it does not mean that he should be in the company of somebody who will be hammering around him and picks up quarrel with him It is better not to have such company
In general, most of the people will have a company But, if by chance if one had to live alone he should equip himself to face the situation There are many things available nowadays. We can make a life quite meaningful living alone
One can do yoga, one can visit ground and watch the games, one can spend time watching T.V. Meditation is another way of spending time which gives good opportunity to realize the things in life Attending foreign languages class is another way of spending time nicely There we will have different types of people we can interact with. Spending time with like-minded people on Fb and other social media sites is also a good way of spending time lonely. There are many ways. One need not worry if one has to live alone

Bringing them back into mainstream is not impossible, though highly improbable because what usually happens is that in the process of trying to capture the perpetrators, they get killed! Quite often these people have already made up their minds to die!

I agree that it is only with the bilateral discussion a solution to the menace of Terrorism can be found. But, who should invite whom and the discussion should be made with whom are the main aspects which one should look into. Should U.S and Russia be invited for bilateral discussion? It will be quite ridiculous when they are asked to do so as it is nothing but holding them responsible for the growing international terrorism. Should ISIS be invited for bilateral discussion? But with whom? Should they discussion with Russia or the US? A similar problem as above will arise

Why should we time and again show Pakistan as the haven for international terrorism? Are there no terrorist activities in Pakistan? Have not they suffered from the terrorist activities The Karachi School Bomb blasts has taken the lives of 150 small kids and Children. Nobody, including the Government, evinced any interest in arresting the culprits on war footing basis. The investigation is still continuing and some arrests and punishments holding some people as responsible have been ordered which is nothing but only an eye-wash to pacify the public. Further, no country has made any protest against this ghastly incident and condemned it in the strictest terms.
Similarly, some acts of terrorism are taking place with an act of revenge in other countries taking the issue of Syria. The whole world is quite aware of the forces who are supporting the Government and who are fighting against the military forces of the Government
Why has Russia developed a grudge against Turkey? Is it just because the Turkey has grounded the passenger plane of Russia?

Why has Germany opened its borders to the Syrian Refugees and allowed millions into its country? And why has the U.S Government did not allow any Syrian Refugees into their country dodging the finalization of the guidelines relating their entry?
What interest has China got in the Projects of Afghanistan and why Afghanistan is more interested in maintaining harmonious relations with China? Why has China denied entry to India as an NSG member?
A critical evaluation finally leads to the conclusion that the whole global terrorism is carried out by the countries to achieve their supremacy globally by terrorizing the neighboring countries.
Strictly speaking, there is no such activity which can be defined and termed as Terrorism but every act we are so naming them is an indirect war among different nations the final outcome of which will be fatal and this may erupt at any time openly leading to 3rd W.W.

There are following factors for continuous terrorism activities and unless we get a solution for it I doubt we will be eradicate it completely.

1. The ideology of religious supremacy fueled by politics.
2. Complete ban of arms and ammunition to common man, even though we achieve it, the “lone wolf” event which has happened in the past shows that you dont need arms/ammunition to kill people. Question is how you identify such “lone wolf” & “sleeping cells” incidences and stop it.
3. The countries who instigate such activities or pseudo wars will eventually be engulfed in it sooner or later, still it will continue to happen just goes to prove that people try to dominate and prove they are better than others.

Terrorism is is nothing but personal enmity between the two persons for personal interests not for country interest. Christmas is coming approaching fast and 25 Dec, 2017, but I think it will sprinkle hipness among the broken heart and poor peoples of the whole world. There are such persons who spread terrorism on earth withe help of political leaders and I am sure they are political leaders who support the terrorists all over the world.

Terrorists have no religion but their religion becomes money or illiteracy on earth. They follow Satan’s commandments in practical life forgetting the teachings of prophets completely,

Think for a while who are terrorists nothing but our neighbors and friends live in our surroundings but they have full support of the political leaders just to prolong their reign and to frighten the people.

The main case of terrorism is injustice on earth and its responsible are political leaders and the Chief Justice of any country and the Chief of Army Staff. If two persons are honest in any country the crime s of all types uproot within days but they get heavy bribery at their houses.

Think a awhile from where Chief of Army Staff and Chief Justice get money for their heavy expenditures no one knows but their of getting money is bribery and nothing else. They sell justice in the courts and people resist their justice and make terrorism on earth.

We must resist corrupt politicians in all countries to uproot terrorism from the whole universe. Think who supply them weapons deadly weapons no one but the politicians. It is the main cause of terrorism on earth and we blame terrorist not the politicians i Think we are wrong not the terrorists on earth.

So sad, for there are individual difference.We also differ in customs, beliefs, cultures and traditions.Though there is only one remedy to stop terrorism, and that is what you have said, to believe God, repent, pray and have God as the only Savior.There will be no war on earth for God does not create humans to fight each other, but because we are gifted with brilliant minds, that is why we cannot blame those who like to go astray.

We cannot stop terrorism unless the entire world cooperates.It will be better to send acid rain there in Syria for example and have all those terrorists melted. They are hard to eliminate in the world. They are real devils roaming around the world. they may be near us.Let us always be watchful. I wonder why can’t they be eliminated when US forces are so numerous and equipped with deadly armaments. They are actually doing their best, but still they kill. Just recently they killed a diplomat, so sad the person the terrorist killed is so important in the world and the killer is a useless garbage in the entire society.

But all is written in the Bible, so all we have to do is pray and repent.

Oohh The joy of christmas, who doesn’t like the sound of carols. If anything carols are what get me into the Christmas mood when I hear a song in radio that imemediately stirs me up to start looking for my old cassettes that played Christmas carols because those songs from way back are the original thing so it brings out Christmas in a more natural way than what we hear nowadays. Its true that nowadays Christmas stats early some people even start it as early as the last week of November in preparation for the festive season. The only bad thing about this early celebration is true fact that when the actual day comes people are bored already so the day usually just comes and passed by nothing much is done.

What you have said here is universal. That change of scene is felt everywhere. But I keep to the old traditions and quite enjoy being that way.

Thanks for posting. Reshared to my foodie blog.

If you like coconut and jaggery this is a great snack. You must be having an interesting food blog. How is it faring?
