Review - Pride Of Cows Milk

When I was a kid, we used to get fresh milk from our farm and there really is nothing like it!!

As I grew up, life became all about instant food and packed / frozen meals so, it came as no surprise that even fresh milk was a passe and packed  milk replaced it.

Three years ago, when my daughter was ready to have cow's milk; like most moms I too wanted to provide fresh milk to her, but the TV reports across news channels about contamination of milk got me really worried. Ever since I decided to say goodbye to the milkman (who just might be mixing up stuff in the milk) and got Nestle (tetra packed milk) instead.

Now recently, Pride of Cows milk came as a surprise to me. I tried it by ordering a sample and the rich & creamy taste really did remind me of my childhood days when we used to get farm fresh milk everyday. In fact, quite a few of my friends have tried it and have loved it especially for their children.

My overall rating for Pride of Cows Milk is 8 out of 10. One point reduced for the pricing - as some Parents In Powai might find it a little expensive at Rs.75/- per bottle.

The other point deducted for the fact that this has to be immediately refrigerated unlike the Nestle tetra pack which can be stored without refrigeration till the carton is opened. 
But the point is that this is fresh off the farm while Nestle is not. 

So, if you really love and appreciate fresh authentic milk, then Pride of cows is totally worth it; especially for kids. 
I would gladly recommend it to parents to try it out. To get a free sample bottle simply send your contact details to vidhirshah@prideofcows.com or bookings@prideofcows.com and you could try Pride of Cows and judge the milk quality yourself.

Music CD - 50 Greatest Children Songs - Review

Since my daughter was born, like most children she loved music. So, my search began for a music CD which  I wouldn't mind playing in the background all day long. I tried and tested a number of CDs but invariably I ended up with nursery rhymes sung in silly accented shrill, baby voices which was pretty irritating for me as well as my daughter.

Then one day I picked up a CD named 50 Greatest Children Songs, with a great song compilation sung in lovely soothing voices. Its been 4 years and my daughter still enjoys listening to this Music CD and thankfully I am still not tired of hearing it too.

I would rate this music CD a 10/10 - as its a soothing one to play in the background while enjoying Mommyhood.

Happy Listening :)
