Meal time is so easy to become a battlefield, when cooking for children. We spend hours preparing nutritious meals, but all ends in tears with a little tantrum at the table for tea.
There are simple guidelines we can follow when preparing food for children? I would like to say that after many years of experience, and a lot of tantrums, the mines, as well as children, perhaps some of the pressure cooking for children.
My first rule for cooking for small children, do not cook. Or at least, less than a cook. Kids love raw food and very healthy. Keep some cut carrots in the refrigerator. Wash, peeled and cut into pieces the size of a finger, an excellent appetizer. For more detailed information. With a little houmous, peanut butter, or, perhaps, very nutritious. Raw food is very good for children.
Following the same principle, why not try at home milkshakes. Can be prepared in advance and stored in the refrigerator. This is one of the easiest ways to get children to eat fruits and vegetables. You can also use the
moothies kind of pop-ice, freezing them. They have less sugar from commercially available products.
One thing that is easily forgotten when cooking for children is that they have small stomachs. Do you have a little and often. Big meal preparation, which is normally only suitable for adults, for children. You just can not wa
four hours of food before eating. Do you have a lot of healthy food in small portions on your hand.
Where this is the most important food in the home is the biggest problem with the vegetables. Thus, many young children do not eat vegetables, especially vegetables. The answer has to be creative. Salsas they cause. Broccoli, of course, the garlic butter or cheese sauce.
Some objects that children do not eat garlic. But if you lead them slowly. Soon, very popular and very healthy. The same applies to cheese. For more detailed information. Note that introducing children to the various cheeses. It can not, as in everything, but some people may enjoy. Cheese is a valuable source of calcium and vitamin D, which are essential for the growth of strong bones and teeth.
It is important that children think in terms like "adult" because he knows that this is a way to be sure that your diet is diverse. In addition, you can avoid the traps that many parents fall into two dishes to cook. Word of warning here: when cooking for children, no salt. Salt is very bad for babies and toddlers.
Many of the problems associated with food for babies can be overcome through the kitchen with the children, not only for cooking for the children. That is, even helping in the kitchen. I know that two times and two times more effort, but it is important in the long run. Cook for the smaller should be the entry into the world of food and creating a healthy relationship with food. It is better for the child that baking the cake is that you are interested in, and love, not as something to choose, and it is in a hurry, without thinking. You can see that the hull peas eaten, and not on the plate.
Even after we have all these things, There are moments when children simply do not eat food prepared with love. This brings me to what may be the golden rule when cooking for children. At this point you should resist the temptation to shout and throw in the kitchen. Their refusal is not a reflection on you or your kitchen. They are also human beings, and they are. The best solution is to learn to soup, or a portion of the chickens in the yard. They always have, that they Cook. Well, almost always.

This often asked question - the best correction require repair or start a new search? Often, fixing broken appliance can take days or even weeks, if the parties are not available. New can be purchased and installed in a few hours. But buying a new device is the right choice?

The biggest problem with electric ovens and walls.
"These pieces are very difficult to find and repair, often two weeks or more to be done," said Kupersmid-Lehrman.
When it comes to dryers, washing machines and other equipment, the survey showed, people are much more fortunate with the independent business, if the guarantee of on-site factory service center.
However, Consumer Reports says sometimes only one unit is not worth setting punishment.
"You must, if the repairs would cost more than half the price of new models." Kupersmid Lehrman said.

The main content of the furnace
We are halfway through the winter, but it is never too late to bake for the safety and effectiveness. After some basic routine maintenance is one of the easiest ways to save money, and problems with heating, and also helps with air quality in your home.

Make sure your Turn oven up to it so that one engine will not start, while the wizard. You can modify, usually without the filter of the gas or oil, but of all others, be careful and fuel supply. Before you do this, make sure you know how to light the pilot.

At least change the air filter on forced air furnace on a monthly basis. Programmable thermostat will remind you when to change the filter. Some experts recommend a fiber filter low costs, as well as other mid-range filters that trap smaller particles. The furnace performance should not be prejudiced if the filter is changed regularly. Filter selection is based on their sensitivity to fine dust in the air. Vacuum the blower and accessible areas of the oven every few months. Even with regular changes of filter dust in the leaves of the fan.
If you have an old natural gas or propane furnace, the fan motor and oil wells - they are only a few drops of 20-weight oil on a yearly basis. Most new models of private bearings that do not need to be greased.
Your furnace fan can be V-belt with an electric motor. If the belt worn or cracked, it must be replaced. Even if the belt looks good, you can use to check the fan and pulley alignment of the engine, if you do not wear belts faster (and thus more noise). To install, loosen the screws of the motor is running, and then configure the roles of metal with a carpenter square and tighten the bolts.
You can find the oil filter to clean fuel oil combustion comes furnace. Check the manual to find out how to bleed air from the fuel line, but there is no need for their models. Regular monitoring of the fuel lines and connections for leaks is a good idea.
If you have a hot water system, air from the radiator in the year. While the system is activated, just an open drain valve on each radiator until water flows without spraying. Be prepared to water, and be careful - this is hot! There are different types of radiator bleed valves: Some are open to the screwdriver and the other special keys or commands that already exist.
