HEALTHY DINNER FOR WEEK : MARCH 2024

By Neeta

How are you ? April is started already and how life is going? Steady or with full speed? Mine is going with full speed. Mini vacation are over and school has started. Again we are busy with school, study little bit and toddlers play time. Healthy dinners are the most important part of our Indian houses. We Indian families have everyday dinner together because it is the time where we meet each other and we talk with each other.  This was the scene of our childhood lives. Many of you agreed with it.  But,  In my house dinner time is where we strictly off the screens whether it is big or small screens and talk over the meal.  Dinner is the special time where we all have meals with discussion and laughter so we did it mindfully.  A healthy dinner has always been my goal. Earlier there was a house help when my baby was small but now we don't have any help. So the goal is to cook food at home and have a meal with the family, which is sometimes very difficult. But with meal planning I ma

A Little DIY around the House

By Neeta
Happy July,

My current mood is to decorate the house. I am always interested in décor items for our home and try to put in an innovative way, but yet not started. Hope this year I will check out my some inner decoration talent…!!! Oopsss…. I think I have…?


Today’s post is a little DIY (Do It Yourself around the House). This DIY is inspired by Pintrest. I am not able to get the original source. But yes the credit is to pintrest only. I am always on Pintrest and get inspired to do it yourself instead of spending a huge amount of money. This is small change which I need to make. It does really bring a huge difference to my living room, so want to share with you. This is my opinion; you guys please tell me how it is?

                                                                                                  

This is book shelf which has a glass door. I don’t like how it looked; actually it shows all my disorganized stuff inside the cabinet. Instead of spending a huge amount of money on changing the door I want to do a very easy, quick and budget friendly makeover.

                                            
Disorganised....have to do some proper organisation first.

The second most important thing is that Saee’s toys are stored in this book shelf.  This is the only space where I can store all the toys from where she can easily access it. Her friends came to play at our home. Due to glass door they were tempted to put down all the toys.  The whole house became a mess within a minute. So I think I have to organize the toys in such way so that no one can access the toys in the cupboard and play with minimum.


I was looking for a fabric but I did not found the matching one so I choose this gift wrap paper and stick it on the glass doors with the help of glue. And tadda… it turns awesome.



I also organized the toys and books inside the cabinet.


Look much better....hussshhh...!!

One more DIY I made with the wine bottle. I covered the neck of the bottle with some pink colour washy tape and it turns in simple flower vase. It gives an elegant look to my living room.

The first compliment I received was that ..hey when you bought new TV ?  
These are not real flowers, I do love to decorate with the real flowers but not able to do the same due to my small doll.  



This is one of the flower pot…oops…yes, for me flower vase, which gave charming look to my kitchen! Actually I tried to decorate with the washy tape and then I tried to cover with the woolen thread, but It did not turned the way I want. It’s look as good as simple one.

Do suggest me some ideas if you have any to décor such bottles.


I love this corner because I spend the most of the time in the kitchen. I wanted to do some makeover of my favorite place. Frequently I changed the flowers.

This is just start of some DIY. Tune it on memory flies for more décor and DIY.


I love that you stop by!


Do you make any small DIY around your house which make a huge difference? 

Which is your favorite place in your home ?

Hi, there Excited to be a part of #Speakeasy2.1 blog challenge hosted by Dipika and Ruchi. Travelling is one of our (me and Mr. hubby) favorite thing. We do travel a lot and love to collect the memories and hence my blog is “Memory Flies”   As soon as I read the theme “Most memorable travel” my mind starts  hopping and makes me realizes our all memorable travels. It is very difficult for me to pick out the one. My dream destination of India is the South pole " KANYAKUMARI " and the North pole “KASHMIR” . Thanks to Mr. Hubby fulfilled my both dreams.   Today I am sharing my KASHMIR tour which was in 2018 with small kiddos and family. Traveling in hilly areas with small kids is not that much difficult. KASHMIR the word itself gives the feeling of immense beauty and  warmth. Kashmir is the place that you can feel and rejuvenate yourself. The peaceful nature and beauty of Kashmir attract travelers from all over the world every year. Due to its geographical location, it i

Learning Activities for Preschoolers

Happy Weekend.... Disclaimer: I am not professional; I am inspired by Montessori Method. This is my experience which is worked for us and wants to share with you. Depend on your child’s interest, you can start with the various activities which keep your toddler active and build confidence within them. Saee is 2.5 years now; I think it is the right age to start with her the learning activities. She also loves to play with different kind of activities which mumma sets for her, and asking more and more. Montessori is an education method which is based on self-directed activity, hands on learning and collaborative play. These are the basic activities for the children at different ages and to the individual personalities of each child. The main function is to help and allow the child to develop independence in all areas according to his or her inner psychological directives. I am sharing with you five easy and DIY (do it yourself) learning activities. I set up this activit

Bhatukali in vacation

Bhatukali -How many of you know this game?  I guess kids in the 90s and before that must know BHATUKALI. Still, if you don't know, not to worry, stick to the whole post. End of an era of online school Gyan we learn from our kids :  Be calm, accept the situation and enjoy it to the fullest. Our kids enjoyed the school in the same way (like offline)Irritating the teacher by asking questions like which subject is today? Can we write? Which lesson mam? Are you sending this in what's app group? Etc.  For kids, it was more fun but the truth is they missed school, friends, and teachers. Due to online schooling, we are able to evaluate our kid's performance as well as " teachers" performance. We get to know the flaws and strengths of our kids. As a parent, we should utilize it. Now it is vacation time and still, we have to schedule our kid's day, is it really necessary? This means, nowadays schools have everything in their syllabus from guitar to painting. But still,

Happiness is selfmade

It was 1 st January 2020 when one of my subscribers asked me to write on “HAPPINESS” and I did not write at that time. Because it was a really challenging one. I did not want to spread any negativity from my post. I tried but it seems to be more negative. Then I looked back to my life and observe, what is really Happiness to me? Thank you, dear subscriber. As it leads to me in deeper thoughts.   Since my childhood happiness is not equal to me. Then I thought, “NO” there are more countable days when I was happy. Like I was happy when I had my degree, my first job, my marriage, my house, my vehicle, my kid, etc. I think these are the milestone in everyone’s life and everybody tends to achieve it. Yep, it is a different thing that we want something else and we get something. 😊 This is called DESTINY. You will get what you DESERVE! But, As human beings we tend to think about such things which we are not able to achieve. Might be for satisfaction or passion. It is perfectly natu
