CHEAT DAY Because life’s too short to always order the salad
IF MOON WAS COOKIE... The Mid-Autumn Festival takes place this month, and to celebrate, local cookie purveyors Baked Indulgence have put together a CookieMoon gift box. Inspired by sweet Chinese flavours that are typically enjoyed during Mid-Autumn Festival and other holidays - think sesame and candied ginger, egg custard, yuzu and longjing tea, and walnut - these soft, chewy cookies are a perfect way to pay tribute to the moon if traditional mooncakes ain’t your bag. The mooncookies come in a pack of six flavours, lovingly packaged in a beautifully illustrated gift box for $298. Available at Baked Indulgence’s IFC pop-up, which is running from now until February 10, 2021.
THE INDISPENSABLE MATERNITY APP
Pregnancy Tracker is a free mobile app with medical advice and useful services for moms-to-be. Even if you are not pregnant now, it is still worth getting to know the service: when the time comes, you will already know what will help you lead a healthy and informed pregnancy.
The homeland of the popular "pocket" assistant for expectant mothers is Russia. The project announced itself in 2016 and in the same year entered the “Top 10” apps in the “Medicine” category.
Today, the Pregnancy Tracker is used daily by more than 1.5 million pregnant women in Russia, USA, Canada, South America, Australia and European countries.
The popularity of the app is due to the fact that it gives expectant mothers what everyone needs, regardless of which country they live in. The service allows you to get rid of unnecessary anxiety, answers hundreds of important questions about the health and development of the baby and allows you to involve your loved ones in the process of preparing for delivery.
The Pregnancy Tracker has charts for weight gain and abdominal growth, counters for movements and contractions, a Market screen with exclusive offers for moms-to-be, a pregnancy diary and even its own loyalty program. But the main feature is the content: the information provided can be completely trusted.
All texts in the app are confirmed by experts in evidence-based medicine. Employees of medical universities in Moscow, São Paulo, associations of obstetricians and gynaecologists in America and Asia are responsible for the reliability of the data.
The mobile app meets the needs of both expecting first time moms and expecting moms that already have children. The former receives new, detailed information about the baby’s development and changes in their body, the latter can "raise" the history of the past pregnancy and compare the current indicators with the previous ones.
