It is also true that healthy food is not enough in the absence of healthy emotions. Sweets at home create f eelings that fill up the heart and children don't take more than double servings. If they are constantly deprived of sweets or bread due to healthy eating obsessions they may develop eating habits that make them addicted as adults. Another idea about sweets is the stupid habit of buying store sweets for children just because the parents didn't spend the whole week with them and weekends seem to be the perfect occasions of buying anything they wish. Day care deprives children of the sentimental power they receive from food. Eating mother's warm soup is not the same as eating day care soup with several children guided by strangers. It is neither cool nor skill-developing for a future pupil. It makes childhood an even shorter period than it already is. Socializing abilities that are supposed to be so important in daycare is a bad argument. It is actually the parents'satisfaction that the child consumes the energy outside the home and the mother won't have to tidy up a messy house everyday. It's as simple as that.

Modern health concerns about sweets are somewhat overblown. Isn't it strange how so many women nowadays are obsessed with only feeding children healthy foods but don't mind leaving them in day care the whole day since the age of 2+ mos? <br /><br />I'm sorry you are experiencing health problems, hope your treatment will work!

Each child had a birthday cake made by Mom and in times of crisis and poverty this was a huge effort. The feeling I get by making, baking or cooking for the childen especially, gives me a security I need as a mother and wife. As a mother I feel encouraged to make my children remember nice moments they will offer themselves further on, while as a wife, I am blessed to feel the testimony of a happily raised man that has become strong and self confident because a good mother made cakes, food and whatever needed with a great heart for her home although she often had to trim ingredients she couldn't buy. I know sweets are not so healthy but they make a nice atmosphere around. My brother enjoyes my homemade things too when he drops by and he just feels better the following days. He asked me to repair something I had knitted for him, although it wasn't something very important or modern. It had a sentimental value for him. As for sweets, I have no problems with desserts because I am on treatement and I cannot stand sugars anymore due to the pills I have to take. I resume to a narrow slice of cake or coffee with a biscuit. It's my heart that gets filled with joy whenever I do things for my family. Nevertheless, I am going to bake "Torten" only on special occasions.Preoteasa Alexandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05996489147504336535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3139017677124620997.post-57157589998959692242016-01-09T14:31:46.430-08:002016-01-09T14:31:46.430-08:00Isn't it funny how men crave sweets?Isn't it funny how men crave sweets?Sannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08124283361844607678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3139017677124620997.post-40560675667071795622016-01-09T14:31:03.503-08:002016-01-09T14:31:03.503-08:00I thought her accent was strange!

I discovered some simple things quite late in my 20s but I don't mind. Cooking is something I want to learn lifelong. As an experiment, I made sachertorte last week and my husband asked me if it was store bought. This made me feel so encouraged because I learned the basics of cooking by making mistakes and feeling useless in the kitchen. That is why I started looking at videos in order to educate my eyes and steal some secrets from the very hands of the cook. Every recipe was something new to me especially refined baking or special dishes. I love staying in the kitchen now that things are under control and I start trusting my hands more or less.Preoteasa Alexandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05996489147504336535noreply@blogger.com
