Special Mom’s blog

My husband and my younger one were arguing over lunch which was unhealthy? My home cooked Ven Pongal (rice lentils and clarified butter combo) or a chipotle wrap! My son asked Chatgpt for the answer and Chatgpt gave a smart answer saying it all depends on the toppings.

After a week of sickness it was getting back on foot. My special one is still not one hundred percent. He has no voice. We have a feeling our flow of energy has not been restored after travel and sickness. If my boy sleeps, I am taking a nap with him.

Me and my husband did listen to Thiruppavai lectures this past week. An amazing Tamil poetry and comparison was made between that and Ramayana. Anyway, these are things that need to be heard multiple times for it to be remembered! Andal, the poet had talked about a wonderful sweet in her hymn and today I made the dish. The ghee, clarified butter oozes from the food onto our palm and flows down the elbow is what is mentioned. Okay, it felt good. But I was not comfortable addimg so much ghee. But attempt of making Akkaraivadisal, the sweet dish was a success.

A trip to the temple yesterday evening, making a dish today all were things attempted by me to make myself active and kick start the energy flow.

We have another round of snow coming this evening and I am trying to welcome it with open arms. Winter is going to be loooong.
