Eggless Wheat Chocolate chip cookies!

Now who doesn't like to munch on these lovelies! Ever since i realized that lil A doesn't quite enjoy her lil kitchen like mommys “real” kitchen i have given in to the fact that i am going to have one messy kitchen! so i decided might as well have a little fun with her in there! These are what childhood memories are made of anyways right?! stealing a few chocolate chip, wolfing down sugar or even licking that butter off the wrapper. so once a week lil A and I cook up a storm(no, really) in the “real” kitchen!
When i make these cookies i sneak in a portion for me that is a healthy alternative! read on to find out how you could also indulge in it!(we mommies need em too!)
Disclaimer: Bring out old newspapers and aprons and let it roll!!
What you will need 



Mommy indulgence Junior extravaganza
Whole wheat flour - 1 Cup(200 ml measurement cup)Refined Flour or half wheat+ half maida- 1 Cup
Vegetable oil - 1/4 cup Butter- 1/4 cup(softened to room temp)
Curd- 1/4 cup Curd 1/4 cup
Sugar- 1/4 cup(powdered preferred)Sugar 1/2 cup(powdered preferred)
Vanilla Essence- 1/4 teaspoonVanilla Essence- 1/4 teaspoon
Baking Powder- 1/4 teaspoonBaking Powder- 1/4 teaspoon
Chocolate chips- As much as you can take!(less than 1 cup please)Chocolate chips- As much as they can take!(less than 1 cup please!)





Mix all dry ingredients and wet ingredients respectively and then add wet to dry!its as easy as pie(err cookie)! and wait its eggless! so we know what that means!its ok if junior decides to put some dough in her mouth!no stomach cramps! But do not let them eat it all up!(believe me it could be a lil tempting!) we need to bake it now! roll it into small balls and press it down with a fork. Space it on your cookie sheet with sufficient space in between each cookie. Top it up with more chocolate chips, i daresay!

Preheat the oven (i use a microwave convention ) at 160 Celsius(preheat before you mix up your ingredients) and then bake it on 160 for anywhere between 9 to 16 minutes(depends on your oven). Keep checking after 9 minutes. The base of the cookie will turn golden brown. Also these cookies get crunchy after you let them cool(i won't judge you if you don't wait for them to cool :)) 

You could also add brown sugar instead of white if you want chewy soft cookies! so soft or crunchy have a whale of a time in the kitchen with your little one today!

Once completely cool store it in an airtight jar. Keeps well for 3-4 days. I have not sent it last longer than that in my cookie jar!

Rise above the little things, Mommy! So this new year i was thinking of a resolution that i can really keep and not one that disappears over the horizon after an enthusiastic debut! Something doable and definitely not restraining (there goes dieting out of the window!). So i started looking at all things i need to work on , things that are WIP for me and i realised that there are many days that i snap and lose my cool with lil A. Call it power struggle, over protective nature, an eager zealous 4 year old who wants things her way, and the innumerable "why's" that demand answers. That got me thinking if i should be tackling each of these issues individually(phew!) or is there something else that i can do that lets me manage myself in all these situations better. Thats when i came across this quote which simply stuck: "ONE RESOLUTION I HAVE MADE,AND TRY ALWAYS TO KEEP, IS THIS: TO RISE ABOVE THE LITTLE THINGS" JOHN BURROUGHS  But rise above what? Thats ...
Bring out the Report Card! Comparison; they say has stopped. Parenting; they say has changed. We will not subject our kids through what we went to, they say. I say- Hogwash! Case in point- A distressed mom was talking to a group of moms about her child acting up and obviously giving out desperate signals of seeking useful advice and solutions. The mom in question was terribly disappointed and gave up when all the other Mothers began whipping out their child behaviour book and comparing how each of their kids react. I Mean come on , not everything is about saying me too or mine too! Sometimes the despaired mom just needs to vent or wants someone to listen to her, not someone who would immediately change the subject and steer it back to a notebook full of comparison points.Check! What happened to our quality of listening or being there? When did it become a competition of parenting skills and know hows? So how can we say that comparing kids has stopped , that we have stopped...
Mommy fatigue- That unaccomplished, unexplained and undeciphered feeling. So a real long weekend with 4 days of school holiday has punched me in the face with the Mommy fatigue- wherein by the end of Day 2 i'am unexplainably exhausted, worn out and (no surprise) sleep off halfway through bedtime story(to be woken up twice by my ever chipper 4.8 year old). So what exactly did i do to get so tired?Ask me, I dare you! Because honestly i am as confused or astonished(as some of my single friends point out) about what i do on a holiday with my little one? So my highly spirited child is not into television or any activity that requires the use of the amazing invention that provides comfort to the backside namely sofa/chair/bench/bed/even floor! She is heavily into role playing(with me) and been so for the past 1.6 years(yes i have been counting). After my initial excitement of participating and being involved in her role playing which could extend anywhere from 1 hour to 5 hours at a...
