Name the most expensive personal item you’ve ever purchased (not your home or car). I do not buy expensive jewelry, accessories or clothing.

How do you manage screen time for yourself? My favorite travel Youtubers are posting from Japan 😃! I never had any interest to travel to that country. But I love this couple that I ended up watching their video. This lead to a casacade effect. My feed was full of Japan travel videos. The past…

Do you need time? I think 24 hrs are enough for everyone. We just need to learn how we are prioritizing and managing the same. The problem happens when we are prioritizing too many things. And yes, not every single thing is important contrary to our belief. The past few weeks, I cleared off some…

The past weekend we were at Pennsylvania Grand Canyon. Unlike the Grand Canyon of the west this was not formed by a mighty Colarado river but a creek. We thought we would be there to see fall colors but most of the leaves were down and we just had to enjoy barren trees. Mother Nature…

Invent a holiday! Explain how and why everyone should celebrate. I was inside a convenience store yesterday. So many different kinds of packaged snacks both salty and sweet. Then boxes of fruit salads, vegetable salads, sandwiches also adorned the shelves. Every occasion is spent with food around the table. And the occasions and parties are…

What does it mean to be a kid at heart? My younger one shared a Tom and Jerry video yesterday. Usually he just shares snake videos knowing I am not comfortable even with virtual snakes 😄. We both laughed at Tom becoming a victim of his own actions. This really made me think of the…

A week ago I ordered these customized mugs. I received them today. It just reiterated the fact that “I am a blogger” and that blogging is a part of who I am. I never thought blogging would become such an integral part of me 😊! The picture has me wearing a bracelet made by my…

How much would you pay to go to the moon? I am not a Moon person. So no money alloted for “go to moon mission”. If I do get some extra cash or find some change under my sofa cushions those would be allocated specifically to travel to plcaes on Mother Earth. That said, my…
