My Oven is my ultimate favourite thing to have in the house. It was my birthday present from hubby two years back and my love for it is still going strong. I love the big capacity of 40L and ability to do two trays of cupcakes at the same time when I bake.
It’s a breeze to bake chicken nuggets/ fish fingers and heat up stuff using the oven. I’m using it more often these days then the microwave oven which sits right next to it. Even though it is a conventional microwave oven which can bake cakes too the texture and look pales in comparison to cake that come out freshly baked in an oven.
There are so many different things that I can bake/cook with the oven.
Here are some bakes which I have done in it.
Traditional Chinese Egg Tart
Baked cod fish
Home baked Pizza
Very soon I’ll be having freshly baked bread from that oven too!! Baguettes, multi-grain loaves etc.

6.Raising Amazing Kids
This book explains to you why it is not necessary to make a dramatic change in your lifestyle. You can incorporate your kids into your new lifestyle and make changes to accommodate them. The greatest takeaway I got from the book is this “Kids must learn early in life that you mean what you say and that your words are consistent. Rules must be accompanied with consequences and the consequences must be consistent.”
