What place in the world do you never want to visit? Why? The world has really shrunk! I see most tourist places crowded and it is definitely marketed all over. It is also not expensive.

It is new year for us. The dawn of new beginnings and wishing all those celebrating today a happy new year! I was asked what we do today? Just like all the cultures pray a bit, cook and eat a ton. So what was special. The boring aama vadai. Or the tortoise shaped lentil donut!…

Where do you see yourself in 10 years? WordPress prompts appear on my jetpack app! The problem being it shows different prompts every time I open. Some I may have done or some I am not interested in! Anyhow I really wanted to answer the above prompt since I knew what to write. By the…

The cold week ended. We even had some snow! It was a bit (or a lot) depressing. Anyhow the week was spent cooking and not any cooking but that involving lot of fat and carbohydrate. We did throw in protein and being vegetarians it was lot of lentils and different varieties of them. Anyhow I…

Describe something you learned in high school. abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz zyxwvutsrqponmlkjihgfedcba I think I was the last batch to learn typewriting and shorthand!

What’s the most fun way to exercise? Exercise is hard! It requires time and a process that can be painful too. You learn about new muscles that exist after a workout! So what can make it easy? Maybe group exercises? I have never been to one in person like a pilates class or a yoga…

My husband ordered me a new iPhone yesterday. This is my fourth since I started using a smart phone since 2012. I have zero interest in it’s features. I get a new one because the old one really doesn’t work properly. Tech companies are smart. They try to make you upgrade stuff. I do not…

The Killdeer bird is back! The mama has laid her egg! I love the way she is protective. In fact she got the attention of my young man who paused at her loud noise. The flowers are everywhere, a feast for the eyes and a nuisance for the nose! The daffodils and tulips are in…
