Lets Rewind

Every one wishes to go back to their school days , college life where we do some mistakes because of our innocence and arrogance. Things we regret now .

Just want to rewind all my good old days. And want to undo few things.

Shoes

Every dark cloud has a silver lining

Of late my family is going through a roughest patch. Situations are not rosy any more. Usually calling my parents was just to have a casual chat .Now a days when ever I receive a call from home its only bad news or worse news. Now don't think that we are facing all different kinds of troubles which we get to see in movies alone. Not really!!! God has been kind and merciful enough and these problems are the usual problems we face in life like health, job etc etc.

A Friend whom I would love to kill

Like the famous quote says “Fate chooses your relations, you choose your friends." I choose this friend of mine. Call it fate or destiny It was I who initiated our friendship. He was like water in the desert. Cause in this land of Tamil, I found someone who speaks Hindi (tappori Hindi of course). We met at Madras University while we were doing a course of Air ticketing. We clicked instantly cause he is a Greatest Admirer of Shahrukh Khan that’s a different issue that he thinks he looks like Shahrukh. In 3 days time we were like chuddy buddies. Our friendship is not like the usual one .We are different.

Walking Down the memory lane

Straight from the kitchen part II

As decided to make this Saturday a tasty one. We finished having break fast. And then I started to worry about lunch.( Guess thats very typical right???) I opened my fridge its weekend obviously vegetables are rare to find. Lucky me I found baby corn and there was some paneer left out after my sister's pot luck. Decided will make use of both.

One of my friends told me to give out the recipe along with the photos. Before I proceed I've few confessions to make......I've never tried this in sense telling the recipe before and I'm not good with quantities and stuff.. What the hell ... let me try.

Alright! I'm not sure whether this kind of thing was ever made. May be this might be my invention. But one thing I can guarantee its tastes simply superb...

Another Saturday

Saturday morning I usually get up late because I know that I don’t have to get up early and cook for my sister. When I got up from the bed I saw the day was gloomy and boring. I didn't even attempt to make the day brighter. Said a lil prayer, thanked God for a new day.

I decided to start my day. I dragged myself up to the main gate of my apartment to pick the news paper (Now don’t think I’m this girl who cant do without a newspaper I'll tell you a secret......not that I'm up to date with the current affairs and stuff just that the Saturday Gossip section from the honey bee is pretty good Shhhhh!!!) As I reached to the main gate I found that the paper is missing. I tried to look around, thought of spying a bit. (U know in India few people have a bad habit of taking theirs neighbors paper) Then I thought no may be its a holiday for the press. Disappointed went to the stove to make some coffee. Boiled milk, got the coffee mug and took a spoonful of Coffee powder and was searching for the sugar bottle, but to my horror it was empty! Sigh!!! .

Oh God!!! What a bad start. So I decided to go back to the comforting bed and bury myself and under the covers. As I reached bed and about to crash I found my sister coming from the wash complaining that she is sick. She got on to the bed and slept. For a while I tried to ignore that statement (I’m sick) and sleep. Lekin mere maan nahi maan raha tha. Cursing my heart I got up from the bed as I didn't have an option but to start the day, fix breakfast for my sister and give her some medicine.

Now I know all I need was a little charging means a good cup of

So with a very sleepy head and lazy bum I changed my nightwear got into tracks and Tee. I went to the mirror to check my hair guess what I found ???? Today's News paper (my sister picked it already and imagine what I was thinking Goddddd) News paper did bring a little enthusiasm (Very tiny miny one I say) which helped me walk up to the store and pick some sugar along with few eggs .

Walking back home I’ve already decided what to cook for the break fast. That little walk did help me to lose my laziness. After I reached home went straight up to the kitchen made myself a good cup of coffee . Looking outside the day looked as if its never gonna be bright. Just then I thought what if I cant change the weather but I can defiantly make this Saturday tasty.

With the same determination in my heart and mind I went to kitchen to make some yummy Bombay toast with lots of vanilla for my sis.. :D
