We love almost any kind of noodle such as <i>beehun</i> (rice vermicelli), <i>kwetiau</i> (large rice noodle), <i>yellow noodle,</i> <i>ifumie</i> or bakmi. We <b><a href="http://mirror-on-thewall.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">love</a></b> them all. My daughter's favorite is always the kwetiau and indeed its delicious especially the fried kwetiau. But right now, I want to share a recipe using different kind of noodle which is <b>dried stick noodles</b>.<br>

We need to boiled this stick noodles first before cook. Usually, I boild the water first before adding the dried stick noodles. I add salt for savory flavour and cooking oil to the boiling water to prevent the stick noodle from sticking to each other. Wait until the noodles turn soft then put the hot noodles under tap water to stop the cooking process from the heat. Drain. Well, I <span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">want to keep the ingredients simple and use garlic and fried shrimps as the main focus.</span></div>

<div>
First of all, I must confess that I really really love all <b>Bruno Mars</b>' songs. But this particular song has few dumb words which irritates me. I bold all those words on the <u><b>"Marry Me"</b></u> lyric above.</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
I like this song ever since I heard it. The music is fun and the singer's voice is great, until I listen carefully to the lyric. Well, English is obviously my daily language so at first I was doubt and maybe somehow I listen to the wrong words. So I google the actual lyric and found out that I was not that wrong anyway. Turns out that the lyric is not as fun as the music and the singer's voice.</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
I mean, who among you beautiful ladies out there who want to <b>marry</b> a guy like this? He wants to marry you just because he wants to do something dumb on a beautiful night and of all other dumb things to do he chooses to marry you. He doesn't mention anything about <b>love</b> since I can not find a single word in this entire lyric. <span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">And the dumbest of all is the part with underline above. That if somehow, after got married on a stupid night, you wake up and wanna break up, he says: <i>its alright, since last night was fun after all.</i> In other words, you can always get a divorce a few hours after getting married. I can tell you that indeed it is a <b>dumb</b> thing to do. </span></div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-1E_sCtAzTEo/UtYYaZhBFNI/AAAAAAAACrk/whf1e0iz6qo/s640/blogger-image-359918988.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-1E_sCtAzTEo/UtYYaZhBFNI/AAAAAAAACrk/whf1e0iz6qo/s640/blogger-image-359918988.jpg"></a></div>
</div>
<div>
I consider <b>marriage</b> as sacred thing to do. You need to make sure that you are ready to marry someone and put a commitment into it before <b>putting a ring</b> into your finger. You need to make a plan for your life and think about what you need to do to establish your marriage life. It is not easy. That is why so many people choose to live together with their partners instead of getting married. You face different kind of responsibities when you choose to get married instead of living together. And I am sure that each and every adults know what's the best for their love life whether its married or living together. No one should judges anyone's choice after all.</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
But considers marriage as a dumb thing to do is totally different. If you really don't feel like want to be with the same person for the rest of your life then why bother getting <b>married</b> at the first place? Every woman wants to marry a responsible and committed man who willing to pour his heart into his new family. Instead of a dumb guy who wants to marry you just because its a beautiful night and he's looking for something dumb to do. Tell him to go away and that he can marry the first tall palm tree he found instead. LoL. Have a nice day ladies :)</div>

We use chillis in almost every meals but this one is different. It has <b><a href="http://mirror-on-thewall.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">sweet taste</a></b> with a lot of spices on it. The original name in Indonesia is <b><a href="http://rismahutabarat.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">SEMUR</a></b> but I can not find a suitable word in English so I use the original word instead, <b>smoor</b>. Meat is the common ingredient for this recipe, you can use beef, pork or chicken. But sometimes people also cook smoor with hard boiled eggs or tofu. In this recipe, I use <b>chicken</b> with additional potatoes.<br>
<div>

<b><span style="font-size: large;">Chicken and Potatoes Smoor</span></b></div>
</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
<u>Ingredients</u>:</div>
<div>
1 kg chicken, cut into medium size</div>
<div>
0,5 kg potatoes, cut and then deep fried.</div>
<div>
A ltr of water</div>
<div>
2 pcs cardamom</div>
<div>
3 cm cinnamon</div>
<div>
3 pcs star anise</div>
<div>
Sweet soy</div>
<div>
Salt and pepper</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
<u>Blended ingredients</u>:</div>
<div>
10 pcs red onions</div>
<div>
3 pcs garlics</div>
<div>
3 cm ginger</div>
<div>
5 pcs candlenut</div>
<div>
1 pc nutmeg</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
<u>How to cook</u>:</div>
<div>
Heat cooking oil in a medium size pan, then add the blended ingredients, stir well for about 3 minutes</div>
<div>
Add the chicken breast and stir until medium cooked.</div>
<div>
Add cardamom, cinnamon and star anise. Cook until you can smell fragrance of the spices.</div>
<div>
Add sweet soy. The amount is depends on how sweet you want your smoor to be. The more sweet soy, the sweeter. My kids love sweet smoor so I always add more sweet soy :) </div>
<div>
Add the deep fried potatoes then stir well until all chicken breasts and potatoes turn brown with sweet soy. Then add water.</div>
<div>
Let it boiled for at least half and hour until all the spices absorbed well.</div><div>I usually sprinkle parsley on top of it before served.</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
Enjoy! :)</div>

Time really goes by. <b><a href="http://rismahutabarat.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Chrismas</a></b> is over but I can still feel and enjoy the joyful moment until today. This year, we received quite few <b><a href="http://mirror-on-thewall.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Christmas presents</a></b> from family and relatives, including FIVE CHRISTMAS CARD! I was so excited to read them. Well, don't you? LOL<div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-7QTE_bUwFoc/UsEXAW8fXiI/AAAAAAAACp8/P2Wr4Ls3Iu8/s640/blogger-image-1068826324.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-7QTE_bUwFoc/UsEXAW8fXiI/AAAAAAAACp8/P2Wr4Ls3Iu8/s640/blogger-image-1068826324.jpg"></a></div><br>
<div>I mean, its been a long time a go since people started to replace the old style Christmas card with new method such as: text messages or emails which seems to be more effective and time saver. Your friends and relatives will receive your Christmas greeting in just a second after you send it. Even these days, in social media era when every places seems to get closer and closer, we can send Christmas greetings through various ways such as: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Path or Blackberry Messenger. And the fun fact is that you can add pictures of you and your family (in colour!) then send them along together with your Christmas greeting. Your friends and relative will receive it in just a second! How awesome is that! And as we all can see, Christmas cards have been forgotten.</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
Like it or not, Christmas cards do take time and efforts, just like. I describe above. But actually I miss them now. I miss the colourful card (sometimes you can find one with musical instrument attached and play Christmas songs while opened), I miss the beautiful words of Christmas inside. I think Christmas cards are personal compare to short messages we used on Twitter. We may call it old style but Christmas card will never be totally forgotten. Somehow I feel that someday people will get bored of all these social media phobia and return to use the old style Christmas card again. </div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
Anyway, I still want to give you my own Christmas greeting here my fellow readers. I hope your Christmas there as merry as ours here. Merry Christmas and Happy Welcoming New Year 2014</div>

Its made of soybean (obviously) and has been preserved with salt and other ingredients so that it can be keep for longer time without being rotten. The taste is salty with dark brown colour and you can still see the soybean inside. This time, I want to share a recipe using this soybean paste.<br>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
Basically you can always use anything other than fish to cook with <b><a href="http://rismahutabarat.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">soybean paste</a></b>, such as: shrimps, squids or eggs. This time I choose fish instead.</div>

is an usual menu for main course. Now, I want to share another favorite menu for my family, this time for breakfast. It <b>Spicy Sausages Fried Rice</b>. We all love fried rice for breakfast and I usually combine it with other type of additional and not just sausages. I love to combine it with scrambled eggs, pepperoni, mushroom, salted-fishes, etc. So, basically, you can always replace the sausages with other additional dish you like. <div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

She always loves school and she enjoys almost all activities she has in school everyday :) Sometimes I pretend about not taking her to school one day with many reasonable reasons, she always refused and said she need to go to school to study and meet her friends no matter what! LoL. That's how she loves school.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
One day, when I picked her up after school, she entered the car silently and with no smile at all. Well, this is not her very much. She always enter the car in smile and can not stop talking about what happened in school that day. But on that particular day, she act different. I asked why she looks like having a bad mood. I wonder whether she's sick or something. But she said, No. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<i>"Angeline, my classmate, doesn't want to play with me. And she asked my other girl classmates to stop playing with me too. So I have no friends to play with, while I'm waiting for you to come and pick me up."</i></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
She told me about that in a very sad voice and face. I thought: oooh geeezz, this kind of <b>bully</b> has already started among a very young children nowaday. I remember back in my time, almost every 1st grade students get along with their classmates well and play together everyday. And bullies began to start when they grow older such as 5th or 6th grade after they meet more kids in school and trying to make new <b>friends</b>. But now, it seems that it starts early enough among the 1st grade students.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-W9mW0dPc7xA/UpLPaIc7YJI/AAAAAAAACmU/O6Cnm-UlxBU/s1600/image.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-W9mW0dPc7xA/UpLPaIc7YJI/AAAAAAAACmU/O6Cnm-UlxBU/s1600/image.jpg" height="320" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
To be honest, this is the first time for me to deal with this. I read a lot and learn from other parents about how to deal with this kind of problem. The conclusion that I got is that we need to teach our kids about self-confidence first. To teach them that they are equal with their other friends, so there's no need to be afraid and you can make friends with everyone. In my daughter's case, I think she's dissapointed to see one of her friends has managed to push other kids to stop playing with her and how they listen to her. She was afraid that this means she will be alone all the time and no one will play with her again unless she follows the rules made up by this Angeline. She thought about what will going to happen with her in school without any friends to play with. School will be fun no more.<br />
<br />
I don't want to add more negativities to this anymore. I don't want her to pay hatred with hatred since that will never solve the problems. Instead it will add bitterness into her heart in the future. So I told her that she does not need to feel sad about it all. There will a way out of every problem she has in school and she needs to keep that in mind. In this case, if Angeline stop playing with her and order her other classmates to stop playing with her either, she can always find other friends in school to play with. If she can not play with her classmates, she can always go and meet friends from other classes. In there school, there are five classess for 1st grade students and many of them are her former kindergarten's classmates also. She can go and play with them instead.<br />
<br />
She looked surprised with my opinion and started to smile.<br />
"How can I not think of that before?" She said excitedly. "I still can play with Ayumi, Anastasia or Zsezse in Rainbow Class (name of other 1st grader class room). And she said she will absolutely visit them tomorrow. I was happy to see her smile back again. And to add a little relief to her dissapointment before, I asked her to tell this Angeline:<br />
<br />
"Hi, Angeline. If you refused to play with me, that is fine. I still have so many friends out there who willing to play with me. You are not my only friend. So, please be nice with your friends."<br />
<br />
After that day, she realizes that she still have so many friends outside her class room to be friends with. And teach her how to make new friends too by saying 'hi' first to other kids and introduce herself first and remember to be nice to them. She makes more and more friends right now and knowing that so many new friends to come in the future. So no need to be worry about not having friends in the future anymore.<br />
<br />
Good job, my daughter. I love you :)</div>

The movie is about a serial killer who got caught by police in his last "action". The killers common victims are young girls whom he raped first before killed. Apparently, he's in some kind of therapy for his "craziness" and still try to get rid of his beast intention over young girls. In the end, he failed and once again caught by policemen. When he's been interrogated about why he could do such a horrible thing to young girls, and why he prefer young girl instead of adult women. Because he can actually get a prostitute anytime he wanted. It's his answer that I think we need to realize. <br />
<br />
<div style="color: red;">
<u>"Why do you think the use young girls on posters? Why young girls want to be portrayed half naked with mouth and legs opened wide, just to promote clothes? And they call it modelling. I think deep inside their hearts, they want people like me."</u><br />
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-TzedP9XwrEI/T_QI8wjFMxI/AAAAAAAACT4/qv2UF2iBuVI/s1600/b.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-TzedP9XwrEI/T_QI8wjFMxI/AAAAAAAACT4/qv2UF2iBuVI/s320/b.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
Geezz, I never think that way before. But I think that something is real about this thought. Pedophiles are increased in numbers. You can read or watch or heard about so many young girls have become the rape victims. The police caught so many of these criminals everyday but somehow their numbers are keep growing and growing. The rape victims are getting younger and younger every year. I keep asking myself, why?<br />
<br />
Yes, these predators are animals! They destroy young girls' life and leave nothing but a traumatic memories behind. But young girls aren't innocent either.<br />
<br />
Have you noticed how young girl dressed themselves nowadays? It's true that almost of them look half naked. Tiny tank tops, tiny shorts/skirts, tight dresses, etc. They walk with almost every part of their body opened. They don't feel ashamed because almost every young girls dress like that. And they considered it cool because that style is in trend. You can see it in many fashion magazines. How young girls as models photographed in certain kind in order to sell clothes. And most of the time, almost naked.<br />
<br />
Well, you may say that it's all for art, yes you may. You can also say that it's not that picture's fault, it is depend on how you interpret them. It's not porn until you consider it nasty, some says. But you can't control other people's interpretation. Some sick guys like the criminal above is one of the nasty people.<br />
<br />
You can see those half naked young girl portrait as art and fashion, but guys like those predators considered it as invitation. Young girls with tiny tank tops and tiny tight short can easily become their victims. You can also become the victim even if you dress properly. You can imagine what will happen to the half naked ones.<br />
<br />
My point here is, you should watch what your young girls wear everyday, mommies. Will you let your daughter leave the house topless? We can explain to them why they should avoid that kind of dress, not just as mom but also as woman. Tell them how crazy the world outside. Don't make yourself as a trigger to those predators craziness. It's doesn't mean that they have to dress like nuns everyday, just dress properly. Don't show off too much of your skin. Cover your breasts properly. Do not expose your thigh and your behind, just because your favorite models dress that way. <br />
<br />
We realize that it's not easy to get understanding from them. But still we must teach them this, right? Before something terrible happens to them just because some sick guys watch them walking in the mall with some friends and most of them wear tiny tiny tops and bottoms. It's a hard world :(<br />

I was informed that they're no longer receive any students anymore and will close down the school start from next month. Ridiculous! I've never found a school like that which obviously close down the school while so many students still willing to continue their study there. While so many school out there were forced to close down due to lack of students interested to study there.<br />
<br />
But the most unfair part of this story is that because we're given the information without any notes from school at least a month before. All parents don't have any idea at all that their kids won't be able to continue study in that school anymore and totally unprepared to find other school right away. As result, the options left are only expensive school which still available for new students for next months since almost all school were already full with new students and unable to receive any new ones.<br />

Well, that means that my dear Asha will be removed to other good school which fortunately still have 2 spots left for new students. This is truly a precious experience for me as parent that I'd rather pay for a quite pricey school with trust-able reputation in the future. Well, what can I say, education is not cheap. But parents will do anything to get a perfect school for their children and work as hard as possible to earn more money for their education funds. I just hope all the best for my cutie Asha :)<br />

Every <a href="http://rismahutabarat.blogspot.com/"><b>mom</b></a> will be very <a href="http://www.femalestuffs.com/"><b>happy</b></a> to have her own new born baby in her hands from the very first second, I suppose. I said “suppose” because apparently there will always be mothers or mothers to be out there who plan to get rid of their new born baby as soon as possible with various reasons. One of the reasons I got is because having or nurturing a baby is such an enormous responsibility.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kIqNIi7Qomk/Tkp1fPzPYFI/AAAAAAAAAzg/f2wVHO9cn-M/s1600/breastfeeding-or-bottle1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="224" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kIqNIi7Qomk/Tkp1fPzPYFI/AAAAAAAAAzg/f2wVHO9cn-M/s320/breastfeeding-or-bottle1.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
You can’t just say: <br />
--> <i>“Alright, I’ve had enough of taking this tiny person in my womb for nine months. Now it’s your turn to take care of her from now on.”</i><br />
Or<br />
--> <i>“I’m still feeling exhausted. Could you please take my baby away for couple of years then bring her back to me right after she can walk on her own feet.” </i><br />
<br />
Then, maybe that’s why some of those moms choose to give up and ask someone else to take their places as moms.
Breastfeeding is also one of issues that mom should deal with after delivering her baby. And for me, breastfeeding is all about decision. It’s sad to see someone looks down on a mother just because she’s unable to breastfeed her baby.<br />
<br />
--> <i>“Why don’t you breastfeed your baby? That is really irresponsible!” </i><br />
--> <i>“What?! You choose to give that synthetic milk for your baby? Ewww. What kind of mother are you?” </i><br />
<br />
I think it’s not fair. No one should ever judge a woman’s capability of becoming a mother based only on her capability of breastfeeding her baby. There are many reasons why moms unable to breastfeed their babies and turn into formula milk and I don’t see anything wrong with that. Formula milk is not poison! It was carefully formulated by the expert to support baby’s growth so that the ingredients will be as good as mom’s milk.
Some said that mom becomes unable to make physical contact with her baby since she feed her with plastic bottle, which is not completely true. You still able to hug her in your arms while feed her with bottle. Anyway, feeding your baby is not the only physical contact you’re about to have when nurturing baby, right?
My point is that you, moms out there have all the rights to choose whatever you want to do with your body. No one should ever judge you just because you’re different from the other side of group.

In the past days, we usually bring our products and sell them directly to customers in need. Then some people started to use media as show case to gain more interests. It’s not uncommon for us to find certain company sent catalogues of their products via mail. Then there’s improvement when people started to use email as well.<br />
<br />
Then what about selling your product online? People usually pay more attention to products displayed online on a professional website. Well, I also love to spend time to look at beautiful products displayed on certain online store and sometimes buy a few of them just a moment after that. That’s the power of selling online. You don’t have to carry your entire product anywhere. Just put pictures on your website and everyone will be able to see them no matter where they are.<br />
<br />
So, if you’re thinking (and planning) about having an online business, make sure that you use a proper <a href="http://www.superb.net/web-hosting"><u>web hosting</u></a> or <a href="http://www.superb.net/managed-hosting"><u>managed hosting</u></a> to support you, such as <b>Superb Internet</b>. It’s important for you to have a professional and trustable website as your online store, so that your customers (or customers to be) can access your online store easily. But, if somehow you already have your own server but still need more help, then <a href="http://www.superb.net/colocation"><u>colocation</u></a> is another option for you. I hope you will be able to manage your business properly, whatever options you have there.<br />

Because it's actually the main idea of why you should have your own blog in the first place. If you think that no one should able to reach and know you through your article, then why bother to make a blog then? Use an old fashioned style diary with a cute lock outside to prevent anyone from peeking.<br />
<br />
Since you want to share your opinion with other or even want to start a discussion with your readers, you need to have and manage a proper blog for it. An accessible blog/personal website will be a great advantage for you to gain more readers. And for this, you need to choose a right <a href="http://www.webhostingfan.com/"><u>web hosting</u></a> to support you. As a matter of fact, web hosting can be used for other purposes too, such as promotion, information, online shop or public service. It will help you reach more readers even from different countries, especially if you use the internationally known language, English, as your main language in your blog/personal website.<br />
<br />
Of course they will provide you with many options first before you make any decision by reading their <a href="http://www.webhostingfan.com/reviews/"><u>review</u></a>. Choose one from the list according to your need and budget. Happy blogging!<br />

My pregnancy is getting older and my due date is getting closer, about 3 months again. I've been reading a lot about contaminated formula milk in my country before especially formula milk for new born babies. It really makes me hesitated to feed my new born baby with formula milk. I plan to purely breastfeed him for at least 6 months before introducing formula milk as additional. And that's a huge plan!<br />
<br />
Because I already have a 4 years daughter right now and she needs a different kind of attention right now. I never use a nanny service before because I can't simply imagine anyone else will ever take care of her as best as I could do. That's why I choose to resign from my previous job and become a stay at home mom. And I make it. I manage to raise my first daughter by myself until 4 years old. But by the coming of my second child everything would be different. I don't think I'll be able to breastfeed my newborn baby and at the same time nursing my 4 years old daughter all by myself. I can imagine that it would be very hectic for me. The only way out is to find more help and support.<br />
<br />
I'm going to need a nanny eventually, no matter how hesitated I am about it. I've been trying to find a qualified and credible nanny for about 3 months now and end up with nothing. Meanwhile, my due date is getting closer. It makes me hold my breath just to imagine how hectic the situation with me in the next few years. Being a mother is never easy and it's going to be harder and harder. May God help me to take care His two amazing miracles in the future.</div><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54488/254/F74AB7A312A4DA524C98B650A134AAAB.png" style="border: 0 !important; background: transparent;"/>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2465381258233310919.post-17625639361026567492011-04-02T07:22:00.000+07:002011-04-02T07:22:22.732+07:00My Baby's Kicks<div align="left">Every time I feel his kicks inside my belly, I just can't stop <a href="http://www.femalestuffs.com/"><b>smiling</b></a> no matter how sleepy I am.The funny thing is this is my second <a href="http://rismahutabarat.blogspot.com/"><b>pregnancy</b></a>.

<br />

So when you've found one, you will try your best to keep the nanny with you and please her with everything she wants. By doing so, you hope your kid will be happy and in a good care of a loving and professional nanny. And at the same time, the nanny feels comfortable to work in your house and willing to stay for a long time.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-Yv3wm1c7Kxc/TXSgxA4oLBI/AAAAAAAAAy8/fOtaaSH3sDw/s1600/nanny.bmp" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="114" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-Yv3wm1c7Kxc/TXSgxA4oLBI/AAAAAAAAAy8/fOtaaSH3sDw/s320/nanny.bmp" width="320" /></a></div>But, watch out, mommies! Your kids could become so attached to the <a href="http://www.femalestuffs.com/"><b>nanny</b></a> and slowly forget to learn about how to be an independent person according to her/his age. Let me tell you a story about a nanny of my daughter's classmate in playgroup.<br />
<br />
This little girl (usually called Taya) is 3 years old. The regulation in the school is parents must leave their kids study in the class room alone. Parents can wait for their children in a special room together with other parents. But no adult people is allowed inside the class room except for the teacher/s. If your kid is new, you can accompany her/him for the first three days only, after that you must leave the class room and wait with other parents in the waiting room. Most of the kids usually cry and upset when watching their parents leaving them inside, but it's only happened for a few days. They will soon understand that parents aren't allowed to accompany them inside the classroom and they will accept it and happily meet their parents back outside the classroom, after the class is over.<br />
<br />
But this little girl, Taya, has been accompanied by her <b>nanny</b> for almost 5 months inside the class room. Her nanny makes an excuse that Taya will be very upset if she leaves her alone in the classroom. But regulation is still regulation. The teacher finally insisted that the nanny must wait outside the class just like other parents did. When this happened, Taya screamed and cried so loudly, but her teacher managed to persuade her after 10 minutes. She has been told that her nanny is waiting outside, no one is going to leave her alone. She stopped crying but still refuse to study. Her teacher keeps persuades her and at least she's willing to stay inside the classroom without her nanny. Next time she'll get better.<br />
<br />
But outside the classroom, silly thing happens. The nanny's crying. She said she can't be separated from Taya (even for only about 2 hours!?) and the teacher shouldn't have forced her to do so. The nanny told us that Taya is so attached to her 24 hours a day. Even when she needs to go to the bathroom, Taya will drag her chair and wait for her exactly in front of the bathroom's door which must be left opened. Can you imagine how stupid that situation is?? Maybe the <b>nanny</b> told us the story in order to gain our sympathy and showing us how close and important she is to Taya. But, instead of looking at her with a smile and understanding, we look amazed and frowned. What kind of nurture is that?<br />
<br />
The nanny failed to teach Taya about independence. I wonder what's going to happen to this little girl if suddenly her <b>nanny</b> can not work and accompany her anymore. In this Taya case, I don't think that the little girl has a problem about left alone in the classroom, but the nanny is actually the person who refused to let it happens. She's so proud that she can make her employer's kid so attached to her that she doesn't care about the bad impact that Taya will face in the future. I'm sure the situation will be harder for Taya when she moves to a higher step such as Kindergarten and Primary School. When all her friends can adapt just well in the new school, Taya will still struggle with the condition that she must be separated from her nanny everyday.<br />
<br />
So, if you mommies hire a <b>nanny</b> to nurture your kids everyday, make sure you pay attention to this side of the story. I'm sure you want your kids to grow as independent persons who can adapt well and face everything in front of them on their own in the future. Nanny is good to help them with food, hygiene, doing homework, etc. But nanny won't stay forever, someday she will leave. And tell your kids, that they must deal with it someday. But life must go on and they still need to learn and grow bigger, even with or without the nanny beside them. That's the point. Don't let your kids so attached to them. And tell the nanny to teach your kids about Independence before she managed to make your kid so attached to her.</div><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54488/254/F74AB7A312A4DA524C98B650A134AAAB.png" style="-moz-background-clip: border; -moz-background-inline-policy: continuous; -moz-background-origin: padding; background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 0%; border: 0pt none ! important;" />Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2465381258233310919.post-13225914075901497962011-02-08T10:04:00.004+07:002011-07-26T14:23:23.526+07:00Home Made Meal For Kids Lunch<div align="left">

The common purpose of this allowance is for lunch at school or to buy snacks on their spare time. But I think we still need to figure out how they spend their allowance. Little kids usually can't make a right choice for healthy food for lunch. If you just give the money and let them figure it out for themselves, then you couldn't blame them if they're getting over weight due to eating junk food everyday.<br />
<br />
Kids would prefer burgers, hot dogs, chicken nuggets and french fries rather than fish or vegetables. They always try to get rid those kind of healthy foods even where you're there watching them. Imagine what will happen if they can choose whatever they want without having you around. Not to mention the food's hygiene and how your kids can end up with indigestion problems.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
Maybe you would like to consider about preparing a home made foods for them instead of giving them allowance to buy meal for lunch. Healthy sandwich and fruit in a small cute bag which they can carry to school will be a healthier choice. You can guarantee the freshness and nutrition and maintain the hygiene level. Yes, you will going to spend more time to do this, but it's worth to do. You can find various healthy recipes for children every where (books or online) and serve it the way they like it.<br />
<br />
I don't hate junk food at all, because junk food is actually tasty. LoL. But I don't want my child to eat junk food everyday. I still can enjoy junk food once a week, especially on weekend. But that's all. </div>

There's been pros and cons about this so far. Some mommies say that it's okay to give vitamins to help our kids grow healthier and smarter every day. But the cons say that supplementary vitamins are not urgently needed and how mommies should think about the side effects of unnatural vitamins like that to our children.<br />
<br />
Indeed, I can understand all the explanation that both sides gave so far. And I think both of them are right. The pros said that <b>supplementary vitamins</b> can be used to support our kids growth and that's true. Those supplements have been clinically proven and studied by the right experts concerning the ingredients and the use of each supplement. Maybe they're not as good as the natural vitamins but not as bad as other mommies thought also.<br />
<br />
For the cons side which refuse to give supplementary vitamins for their kids, I found their reason is good too. Nothing better than giving our kids the real carrots to gain vitamin A then giving the a vitamin A tablet. But, what if you don't have time to prepare the proper food for your kids due to some other urgent daily business? Are you going to choose to not giving any kind of <b>supplementary vitamins </b>too? Or what if your kids refuse to eat those carrot you gave them? Are you going to force them to eat it? Kids are well known for their picky habits. So, while we teach them to love foods, we must think about their need of vitamins at the same time too.<br />
<br />
So, I think nothing's wrong about giving your kids supplementary vitamins each day as long as you remember that they can't replace the good from natural ingredients such as fruits and vegetables or grains and eggs. Just be a flexible mommies. If your kids enjoys every kind of food you gave them (including fruits and vegetables) and you always have spare time to make sure that they meet their correct proportion each meal according to their ages and needs, then you shouldn't need to worry about not giving your kids supplementary vitamins. Just make sure that the intake is proportional so that your kids can be avoided from Avitaminosis.<br />

But, if you feel that you can provide a complete package of vitamins for your kids, then supplementary vitamins are not forbidden. But they can't replace the healthy and natural foods whatsoever. Because on top of that, we, as parents, only want the best for our kids.</div><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54488/254/F74AB7A312A4DA524C98B650A134AAAB.png" style="-moz-background-clip: border; -moz-background-inline-policy: continuous; -moz-background-origin: padding; background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 0%; border: 0pt none ! important;" /><br />

Will you believe me if I told you that I've been avoiding internet ever since I got pregnant. I left my laptop upstairs while I spent most of my time daily downstairs. I could never do that before, believe my. I can't live without my laptop. More over, I can't imagine I could ever leave my three beloved blogs like this. But this is what truly happens right now. So forgive me, my friends, if you find my blogs boring for I can't spend time to update any of my blogs these past 4 months. <br />
<br />
Well, at least this post is like the first time for me, now. LoL. I try to update this blog from my Blackberry instead of my laptop. Maybe next time I'll try to open my laptop once again. Alright, you may want to yell at me: "Stop blaming it on your pregnancy! It has nothing to do with it." Then how can I explain this feeling which suddenly appear right after? I can't explain it and I don't know for how long this going to take time. <br />
<br />
But, I'm glad I'm here this evening. LoL<br />
<br />
Anyway, do you a similar experience with me during your pregnancy? Tell me about something weird that your pregnancy brings you and share the story here.</div><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54488/254/F74AB7A312A4DA524C98B650A134AAAB.png" style="border: 0 !important; background: transparent;"/>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2465381258233310919.post-9599301569926606642010-12-16T08:09:00.000+07:002010-12-16T08:09:19.358+07:00Sundial As Centerpiece for Garden<div align="left"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_nRchuqMAIoI/TQlmlFb9o7I/AAAAAAAAAyQ/aM8yEuV-8Sw/s1600/sundial.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_nRchuqMAIoI/TQlmlFb9o7I/AAAAAAAAAyQ/aM8yEuV-8Sw/s200/sundial.jpg" width="193" /></a></div>Do you have a garden in your back yard? Well, I have one in the front of my house. Some people consider gardening as a hobby, just like me. Then if you do it for hobby, you will always try to find something unique and timeless to decorate your garden beautifully. In my opinion, colorful flowers and beautiful greenery are not enough. We need something to be the centerpiece of the garden that can be used as kind of icon to represent it.<br />
Some people my use fountain or a big statue as a centerpiece for their garden. Why don’t you think about using <a href="http://www.1001sundials.com/"><b>Sundials</b></a> such as <a href="http://www.1001sundials.com/sundials-collection/armilary-sundials-S1414.html"><b>garden Armillary sundials</b></a> instead? <br />
Sundial has been use to tell time for a long time ago, just like watch. Well, you can still use for decorative purpose for today event for its beauty and timeless style. Choose certain sundials which made from suitable materials to prevent from damage due to weather problem. It's okay to have fountain or statue as the center of your garden, but sundial will look different on it. Buy one and enjoy your sundial in your beautiful garden.

Or perhaps, YOU need one for your own self. And I tell you, that it’s alright to use a walking cane. Walking cane has reached a different perspective right now, not only usable for elder people with health problem, but can also be use for the young ones too. As right now, walking cane has been presented better than it used to be.<br />

Decorative walking canes can be found in many different colors and some of them even use strips as details. I even saw a unique one which uses a different handle, made in crown shape and look sparkling.<br />

You may find a house using several different rugs in each room because different rugs can bring such a different ambiance. If you want to change the air of a room, rug is the simplest and cheapest way. Of course you can still just change your interior wall color or buy new furniture. But those both options are going to cost you more money. Why don’t just buy a unique rug then?<br />
There are few kinds of rugs such as <a href="http://www.juterugshop.com/"><b>Jute Rugs</b></a> and <a href="http://www.bamboorugsandmats.com/"><b>Bamboo Rugs</b></a>. These both kinds of rugs are environmentally friendly. Jute is actually a vegetable fiber that can be spun into strong threads and the most affordable natural fibers. Meanwhile, bamboo has been well known for its versatility. It’s the fastest growing tree on earth which makes it as renewable resource.<br />
Natural products like jute and bamboo usually easy to maintain, healthy and good for the environment. They are available in many beautiful colors and functions too. So not just having your rooms decorated nicely with natural fibers, you can also take part on protecting the environment at the same time.
