Weight loss made easy

Weight loss made easy.
The number one way we burn calories is exercise, number two is digesting food. Ask you doctor how many calories you should eat in a day to control your weight, Divide this by five. Eating five smaller meals spread out over a day will actually fool our body into burning more calories by working all day.

How to get Kids to exercise

How to get Kids to exercise
One of the culprits responsible for the increase in the number of overweight youngsters is a lack of exercise. Here are some tips from fitness expert Dr. Kenneth Cooper and the National Association for Sport and Physical Education on how to get your children moving.

- Offer rewards for exercising, such as tokens they can save to attend a sporting event or theme park.
- Have a “toy run” by hiding small, inexpensive toys along a neighborhood route. Walk or run with your child to pick up the prizes.
- Watch events on TV or movies with a sports theme, such as “The Karate Kid: or “The Rookie,” and then try to engage the kids in such an activity.
- Walk or ride a bike with your kids while doing errands.
- Plan birthday parties around a sports theme, such as bowling, miniature golf, or skating.

Tips for buying new furniture

Tips for buying new furniture
Buying new furniture is a sure way to take a bite out of your savings account, but it doesn’t have to be that bad. Here are a few ways you can save while furnishing your home:

Buy furniture from a furniture rental store- Furniture rental outlets often have retail shops where they’ll sell their slightly used furniture at clearance prices.

Buy furniture from a model home- Brand new furniture at clearance prices from model home builders Look under Homes in the yellow pages.

Buy directly from the manufacturer- If you know what you want try dropping into the manufacturer’s outlet or give them a call and order directly from them. It cuts out all the middlemen which lower prices.

Turq and purple pouch

Hi, it is long time that I have not posted my knitting time. I remember that while I was doing my 6 th std at St.Lawrence High School in Mumbai during the 1967 , my craft teacher taught me to knit a double layed scarf. It was a thick scarf , but the center portion was not joined only the sides were joined. I was knocking my brain and trying to recollect how it was down. Luckly I was able to get this method in you-tube. It is called as knitting in a round with straight needles. I was happy with this search knowledge. Hence took out my size 4 straight needles and started to knit and I was able to knit this lovely pouch. It is an all purpose utility pouch and can be used for any sort of storage. Sharing my first purse. Many will follow soon. It has a look and feel like you have a rib stitch.

Cat and nine lives

Cat and nine lives

The store house of a merchant was full of rats. They were everywhere. One day a Brown cat entered the warehouse and felt the storehouse to be a nice place for it to stay. It decided to catch as many rats as possible and decided upon an idea.

The cat decided that it would lie down like a dead cat. Hence it laid itself for some time and ensured that the rats would believe him to be dead.

The younger rats went to their grand father mouse and requested for a permission, if they could go near the cat and play, as cat was dead.. The old mouse was not convinced and wanted to verify himself.

He went to a nearby shelf and started to tell that, the cat has nine lives and would like to check if this cat had many lives. As he was talking, he began to chew a sack which was full of flour. As soon he was able to open a little, automatically the flour began to fall on the cat that was below the shelf.

The cat did not like the onslaught and was finding it difficult to lay still. Hence he finally gave up with a loud sneeze. The cat jumped out from the flour shower and looked like a white cat. The wise mouse said; see the cat has changed into another life. It has changed its color in its next life.

All the younger rats thanked the old mouse for its intelligence and guidance. The rats were happy as their lives were saved by the old mouse.
