Odd Even Formula for Cars in Delhi applies for Laundry at home also !

Memories of Laundry starts from when we were child. We have seen our mothers washing clothes with their own hands. I have seen her using Detergent soaps to rub the clothes. Their  hands have become rough with the time.

Earlier, it was considered as girls job to do this work while men used to go out for work. I don't want to go into if it was right or wrong.Washing of clothes has become much easy with time

Washing Machines has taken the place in all households doing all the hard work. That was what i used to think .But its not true .I have seen my wife often,  rubbing  few areas of clothes which had  got stains on it even after washing in machine .I asked her why , she told me : "Some stains stay back even after washing from Automatic washing machines".

That was the time I realized washing machine was not the complete solution unless you have a good detergent powder specifically made for Automatic washing machines.So it was right time for us to try out the Ariel Matic.

With Ariel Matic our household's #LaundryGoesOddEven. One of the reason which I feel made this odd even formula work out better was Ariel Matic's ability to remove even the tough stains. There was no need of extra effort in hand washing. Men will be Men, they can't learn years of expertise of Hand Wash in a day. Hand wash is a delicate task and we, inexperienced men, can apply extra force, extra powder  and tear the clothes apart. Thanks to Ariel Matic to give "The Men " the equal right and play an active role in helping  our beloved mother & wife. Ariel Matic has served as an equalizer.

I went to the washing area .Started filling water in machine .My wife saw this and was surprised at my gesture. She asked what are you doing? I told her today I will wash clothes for you and  you take rest .She replied instantly, "Are you  going back to your hostel life days ?". I said no, it is just helping and supporting you in sharing the work load . Her question made me realize that  I never  had an issue washing clothes when I was in hostel. But I never washed them when I was at home, either my wife or my mother washed them. Then I just asked the Question "Why is this " to myself & felt guilty. But then said lets forget past (Past is Past) lets work on present & future. :-) and make life and wife happy.

I was busy washing clothes on that specific day. My kid came running to me when i was  washing the clothes. He didn't gave any surprising look, may be because they are not educated/taught by the society on what we should do & what we shouldn't. Hopefully, he will remain the same once he grows up.

Note:-
I am taking part in the #LaundryGoesOddEven Challenge by Ariel India at BlogAdda.

#Immunity4Growth : Strong from Both Inside & Outside.

On 8th of May 2016, there was a meet to discuss on #Immunity Factor & its necessity for growth. The meet at Vivanta by Taj was organised by Horlicks & GSK in association with IndiBlogger.
I, being a Father of a young one, was determined to attend this meet without a miss. I had to cancel one of the planned activity for this meet, and yes I can say it was much more worth to attend the #Immunity4Growth Meet.

I started for the event at 3 pm to make sure I reach the event at Vivanta by Taj, Bangalore on time.  

The event started with the Registration and greeting at the check in counter. Check-in was done using QR code, which was very swift and good use of technology.

The meeting started with introduction of Jill Castle, America's Childhood Nutrition Expert, by Anoop. She is a registered dietitian nutritionist (RDN) and childhood nutrition expert with over 25+ years in the field of paediatric nutrition. It was a very informative & eye opener session. The session by Jill was followed by a panel discussion.

In short, Its a 3-phase of fight to get  #Immunity4Growth.


1. Acknowledge the Problem :- First thing for us is to acknowledge the problem of Nutritional deficiency among our children. Statistically its said that 30% of the kids in the developing countries are with Micro Nutrients deficiency. Well stats are stats, lets worry about the world & others later. Lets check the Nutritional  value of our own kids. One can do that at http://nutrimeter.horlicks.in/.

2. Understand the Problem :- Hidden hunger is one such problem in which there is a nutritional deficiency inside but from outside kids look nutritionally sufficient. For children to grow well outside, they need to be strong inside.

3. Fight back the problem of nutritional deficiency:- A planned & complete diet is the main solution. To make sure that the kids have a proper diet parents, teachers & school staff needs to be educated and make them part of the war against the nutritional deficiency.There are only few food products which can be regarded as wholesome. So make sure that you have wholesome nutritional diet.

• Milk & Egg have all kinds of nutrients.So its a must to add them as part of daily diet to make it wholesome.
• Follow 5210 formula:
• 5 : Increase in Fruits & Vegetables as part of diet.
• 1 : Few hours of Activity to keep kids fit
• 0 : Avoid Artificial Beverage

I took a pledge on Mother's day as a Father, thanks to Horlicks, that I will be part of this fight against Hidden Hunger for my kid. Lets build our future - strong from Both Inside & Outside.

After the panel, there was a good nutritional dinner :-) along with networking with fellow bloggers.
