  • चाय की दुकान पर मीठे की बहार

    I might be a sucker for a few things but some I do well… and one of those is

    1. Making Custard and Jelly… Primitive for the chefs and cooks all around, but more like a Bharat Ratna for someone like me 🙂 so dinner, and lunch tomorrow would have some custard and Jelly for Dessert… Care to Share?

    2. and the second one is my favorite Cold pasta salad… I have pasta sauce for it today and I have the same veggies again 🙂 but no fotos 🙂 Looked around for pineapple, but did not find it anywhere 🙁 I am sure I did not look enough !!! Lazy ass !!

    Oh and the pasta is different today as well… Not using Penne but Spirali…

    Off to the kitchen now 🙂 a whole lot of work to do !!

  • Of Aha’s and Ouch’s…

    Back from a quick trip !!! Loved it…

    Also realized that the quickest way to throw a friend miles away from you is to ask : ” Who are you to tell me what should I be doing? “

    Anyway….

    More coming soon…

  • Dinner…

    After a long drive last Sunday, I had fixed myself a quick ( well not so quick too) dinner… A nice cold pasta salad… Had to make a pit stop and buy the Veggies, the Mayonnaise, and Penne Pasta… Did not find all the veggies I wanted but the carrots and bell peppers (Capsicum) was good enough 🙂 I would have loved to eat the yellow and red ones though !!!

    and thankfully, it tasted GREAT !!!! might make more this Sunday !!!

  • Facing Myself…

    Mirror Mirror on the wall…

    Tell me only what I like, don’t tell me all !!!

    Thats how I am… I think everyone else too… But then its a generalization and is completely subject to individual opinion and perceptions…

    Having said that, I find it strange and still struggle with doing something my way, and accepting the same thing when someone else does it !!!

    In simpler words, when I act in a certain way, or behave in a specific manner, I find it fine and want it to be acceptable, however when someone else does the same thing, I raise a question, I judge, I reach a conclusion about the other person, I stop talking, I shut them up and other things….

    And it only gets interesting and harder to handle, when I am talking to someone like me 🙂

  • I am Printed 🙂

    Absolutely nothing can take away the charm of Printed pictures… This was the second time I got a few prints ( 20+ actually) and I am really really happy with the results…


    I recommend clicking on the picture above for a larger view… You might just like it better… Even if you don’t, thanks for a visit 🙂

  • Sharp Turn Ahead…

    They had met just once… Long time back ! Felt like a decade or something, but it was just 6 months ago…

    Both scared, both afraid of things that had happened in the past, but still keen on taking a step towards each other, towards something that they felt was strong enough to let the bond stay…

    The first meeting was over even before it started, or atleast it felt like how it was… but still it was long enough for each of them to hold on to something till they meet next… though both of them were not sure when would that really happen… or if that will even happen or not…

    They waited…
    They laughed…
    They fought…
    They expected…
    They Got…
    They were irritated…
    They were strong…
    They had a faith…
    which was to last for long…
    They missed…
    They cared…
    They wanted to say a lot, but none of them dared…
    Something they said, some they left just like that…

    Time was slower then it usually is, for the period they were away from each other… But like time is expected to, it did pass !!!

    Things happened, both bad and good…

    And time just passed… with that strong thin thread, which both of them kept holding on to…

    And today !

    Its a different day…

    They are not two people anymore… they are a couple…

    He is not a boy anymore… he is a husband…
    She is not a girl anymore… She is a wife…

    That thin thread has survived the test of time, and it has only grown stronger !!!

    Life has a new meaning today… Brilliant !!!

  • Eazy Breezy

    No electricity for a loooooooong time…

    The inverter did help, but then again it runs on batteries that eventually died…

    Hot Humid Uncomfortable irritating time…

    The hand-fan did help… it was like heaven when the air from the hand-fan hit my face…

    and then the weather changed… cool breeze flowing all around now… the rains helped the weather even more…

    I feel good !!!

    God Bless !!!
