Shilpa Shetty's work-out video today got a little twist. The 44-year-old actress ditched the gym and hit the garden with a jhadu instead. Looks like her share of today's household chores was to clean the garden. Shilpa shared a video of hers jhadu-ing away dead leaves in the garden area, thanking her house-helps, who are usually in charge of keeping the house clean. In the video, Shilpa says: "This is a work-out guys. Maid nahi ayi hai... garden ho... ghar ho... safai karo. Isse better work-out nahi ho sakta. Aur self isolation mein karne layek occupation bhi mil jaata hai. Yeh ho gaya aaj ka cardio."

Shilpa accompanied her video with a heart-felt note about the secret heroes of her house: "Cleaning and tending to the garden for these last few days. This lockdown time has made me realise and remember that having help in any form is one of those few things we should always appreciate. Our lives become so much easier because of all our house help/staff but unfortunately, sometimes we only realise this in times like these. Today, I'm grateful for every single person who has made life easier for us in their own way. It is because of them that we can enjoy the gift of time to go out and pursue our dreams. When life gets back to normal, don't forget to let them know that you value them."

Spending time with Viaan usually entails a baking/cooking session once a week. He loves to experiment and whip up healthy, easy-to-make recipes in his free time. We use this heart-shaped mould to show it's made with love... This time around, we baked the gluten free "chocolate heart cake" with coconut sugar, celebrating this time together Bake the quarantine blues away. Every day well spent Since I have more time on hand, I found these pics from the past to show how time flies, but something's don't change. Take time out to show gratitude for the time we 'have' on hand , and let's spend it with our kids with happiness in our hearts... K sera sera... whatever will be... Will be... . . . . . . #EveryDayIsSonDay #bakers #motherandson #famjam #qualitytime #SwasthRahoMastRaho #staysafe
