We, the authors of this blog, have already shared our ways of finding time for creativity, arts and crafts with the readers: Anastasia’s approach, Natalie’s approach. Today, a new mother Alima will tell us about her tips and tricks:

“How did our parents manage us when there were no washing machines (and there also was a tendency to iron things), no diapers like pampers? I even do not talk about dishwashing machines and other modern helpers. We’ve got almost everything that makes the life of a new mother easier but I still feel lack of time to do everything. It seems here comes the answer – our desires are unlimited and even if we had a babysitter there would be tons of things to do and places to visit. So, let’s change the attitude – I do not get tired at all, I have enough time for everything and, what is the most important, I have enough time for the baby!

My hubby, Igor, wakes up and puts on a non-iron shirt. It is not a non-ironed shirt but a shirt which you may not iron, thanks to the modern technology, and which is made of cotton. He warms up his breakfast in a micro-wave – sensor heating – just indicate the temperature that you need.

Breakfast which is always ready

Natalie and I have worked out a list of products (with no semi-finished products!), which can provide a good breakfast being used together or separately:

* Oatmeal. Natalie’s method: put rolled oats into the dish, cover it with boiling water and eat the dish in 3 minutes. Anastasia’s method: put rolled oats into the dish, cover it with cold water, put the dish into the steam cooker together with the vegetables for the baby, add raisins and eat. The method of Anastasia’s husband: put the oats into the dish, add cold water, put the dish into the micro-wave and add mashed banana – then you can eat it.

* Boiled buckwheat. Anastasia’s method: put buckwheat into the saucepan, add cold water, leave it on fire for 10 minutes. Natalie’s method: Read the rest of this entry »
