Healthy recipes: Mum I want Shake Shake

Perfect healthy shake shake for a musical baby

When everything is shake shake, then moms shake to the healthy food ideas of shake shake.

Hi, your son wants healthy Shake Shake what do you do? This happened the other day as I was complaining that we were eating little fruit. But, I had not considered the idea of Shake Shake and whether it would work.

Then I told my son would you like a shake? I was surprised he looked forward to it. If you are not in Thailand where mango is fresh and just calling you to eat it you can use any other fruit that you have in your fruit basket.

So, I peeled the mango that we had, did not even add sugar just to be good and not overuse sugar in my recipes, I put my mango in my kitchen blender by the way I have a small one as the one they gave us on our wedding day is just too big to be carried wherever we go. But this one serves the purpose anyway. Added some ice and this was mango in all its best color the Shake Shake way!

On the table my son enjoyed his Shake Shake, lets see if he will enjoy the water melon the same way.

Bangkok Protests and Bangkok Bombs

Monday Morning in Bangkok,

the standoff between the red shirts (now wearing different colors) is still at its maximum.
There have been rumours of crackdown but this has not happened yet.
Earlier they had proposed to screen hotel rwanda at Hualampong station but was cancelled but yesterday I read that one of the video outlet has reported a surge in sales of this film.
In the last 12 hours much has happened.
Last night Internet rumours of Thaksin death were at its peak, then Thaksin emerges and posts pictures of himself on facebook this is after he hasn't phoned in on the protesters for some time but he explained that he wanted to distant himself from the ongoing standoff.
around midnight last night 6 people are injured in a bomb attack and shooting at the house of a former party leader. Early Monday morning M-79 attack hit Chiang Mai police's headquarter causing only property damage but no casulties.
Homemade bomb spotted in chulalongkorn hospital close to where the red shirt fortress is.

In about 1 hour the PAD(yellow shirts) leaders will hold a press conference to announce their campaign and in the meantime the multicoloured shirts vow to meet every day until the redshirts disperse.

AND
Mr Abhisit turned down the 30-day dissolution demand from the red shirts.

And the Saga Continues!

Family Fun

I'm not an eating out person as you can see in this blog I love to cook and spend most dinners home. But, looking at the community today for most of you who have to lunch out I bet that some of you out there think of a quick meal or quick snacks.
But, guess what most professional marketers know that especially the young people tend to spend lot's of money in fast foods than they spend in movies,sports or any other kind of activity. So,come to think of it they fast food professional marketers are targeting your money otherwise how would recession never get to fast food chains.Their interest is to persuade to buy the foods they sell.
So, how do these fast food bet on your pocket money dollars? Simply by offering large portions so that when you buy you feel like it is the value for your money. Have you been able to watch super-size me? please do. This will give you an idea of what you cash in with that super size.

Then ask yourself is bigger better?
what is your answer? Why would you let the fast food professionals take advantage of you? Let them profit from you?
If we all took a minute to think about all the value for money versus the value for quality I bet the fast food will make less profit and you will be healthier.
I'm for an idea of a fast food serving healthy food thinking of my customers as my family and this way we all benefit from each other.
Next time you bet your dollar think how.
