All kids go through stages of eating. Sometimes they eat until you think they will explode, and sometimes they don’t eat at all. They go through stages of eating only junk food and stages of eating real food. Though as a parent this may concern you, it is important to understand this is common amongst toddlers and young children. You may be able to get them to eat everything in the world one day and nothing at all the next day. All kids have these same eating habits.

My son has episodes where he will eat and eat and eat until I am really afraid he is going to get sick. Some days I just have no clue where he puts it all. Then, there are some days that I cannot get him to eat a darn thing. I get terrified he is going to dehydrate, be malnourished, or lose weight. As a mom it is important for me to feed my kids enough food, but sometimes it seems impossible. Whether he eats or not, I always provide food for him just in case he gets hungry, or for those times when he eats to oblivion.

Through reading some REAL Food Blogs, I have realized that my child is not the only child in the world who goes through theses habits. Children go through growth spurts and during that time, they eat like crazy to provide enough for the body to grow. Once the body has grown, the child’s eating slows. You see the child doesn’t need that much food to maintain his /her day to day functions, but he/she does need more food when they go through growth spurts. It is important to always offer your child food, but don’t panic if they don’t eat this is the natural way our bodies work.

The first time I was offered a zombie cocktail, my expression was kind of horrid because I had no clue what this drink was about! Over the years I have experimented with a few versions of the zombie cocktail and I’ve realized that even a small variation in the ingredients can make a big difference to this cocktail. This article is dedicated to the craziest EVER version my friends & I tried out!

Let’s cover the ingredients first- take gold rum (1 ^1/2 oz), lime juice (about 3 tsp), dark rum- Jamaican (1 tablespoon), white rum (about 1 tablespoon), pineapple juice (about 1 tbsp), papaya juice (about 1 tablespoon), sugar syrup (about 1 ^1/2 tsp), 151 proof rum (about 1 tsp), one pineapple stick and finally a pinch of powdered sugar.

All the ingredients should be shaken well but leave out the portion of rum. Remember to throw in loads & loads of ice, throw in the stick of pineapple & add the sugar. Take a Collins glass and strain into the glass. At the end garnish with a cherry and pineapple. Just before you serve, add the rum in the drink & sprinkle some sugar on it.

Boiling an egg is one of the most basic cooking skills that anyone can learn, as you all you would need to do is place a couple of eggs in a saucepan, add water, and set it to boil. There are several instructions on how to cook a perfectly boiled egg though, especially if you want to experiment with texture. Soft-boiled eggs or oeuf a la coque are considered to be very creamy and a bit smooth to the palates, while hard boiled eggs are usually more solid in texture. If you are planning to enjoy a soft-boiled egg the recommended cooking time is about 2-4 minutes once the water begins boiling. Hard-boiled eggs on the other hand require about 5-8 minutes before you can enjoy them. Cooking times may also vary depending on the size of the eggs you want to boil. Small to medium eggs naturally require less cooking time than larger ones.

So many people think that clipping Cat Food Coupons is really a waste of money, but it actually isn’t. It really does not take that much time to clip the actual coupons and find them, but you have to remember to bring them to the store when you need to purchase your cat food. If you take the time and can wait for a sale to happen, you can bring your coupon in at sale time and save additional money, which is the best way to maximize your savings. Take into consideration that you might want to stock up on cat food when there is a really good deal.

Unless you have multiple cats, you do not want to purchase too much at one time, because just like our food, it will go bad after awhile. Typically the shelf life on cat food is pretty long, but you never want to buy more food than you will use before it goes bad or otherwise it is a waste of money. But, if you are on a tight budget and looking to save some money, this is a great way to do so.
