In culinary anthropology we study that it’s quite easy to point out one’s personality from the food they prefer to eat! Yet, there is one more dimension to it…the garbage they dump talks even more about that person. To the next level…the way they use their refrigerator can depict it even better! I am shocked […]

Spending dreadful days during this cold season in a small town with no much activity around, can do weird things to one’s phyche. In fact, my 2015 resolution is to stop day dreaming and to wake up to the reality. Yeah, I have been going through a lot of self analysis these days. And, am convinced that I was born […]

I just lit up, when I saw a friend request from my best buddy (actually my soul mate)…with whom I had lost touch with. When we spoke to each other…it was so mutual and so natural…that we started being silly, pulling each other’s legs and giggling for the whole time! He quoted all about the […]

First let me clear the air…this recipe is from my cousin Harini, who is supposed to do her thesis (Master’s) in engineering at Germany!

Hello Hello Great Ladies, Mommies and Nannies (Daddies if any too)! I made it through. Yeah, my lil infant accepted her first meal, finally. She must have felt sorry for me and gave in. Phew! Sigh and deep breath! If you could relate to my situation…of unbelievable tantrums, yelling, turning away, crocodile tears, sticky mashed […]

For years…I have been avoiding baby showers! Its a pure awkward moment for an unwed, never-been a Mom and men to be present there. And to witness…all the hormone driven glowy-type women, to go…on & on with their stories. And, the mandatory ‘awwww’ that follows after each and every sentences. I know, I know…its not […]

‘Congrats!’ I effused to my friend who recently baked a three tire cake stand. ‘You can do it too,’ obligatory punctuation followed…from her! ‘Why should I do it? Are you kidding me?? No baking stuff for me! In the end, what have I achieved? Dirty dishes? 200 pounds? Complete exhaustion? Naah!’ But, somehow I managed […]

Last year, around the same time…I was like a python who ate a Bison! With full blown pregnancy…counting my big day…I drove to this nearest hospital to check out what they had in their cafeteria. I heard from behind ‘Indian’? from a strange (equally Indian looking) lady! ‘Yep’. The next question came straight ‘Doctor’? ‘I […]
