Here are this week’s questions: 1. Would you rather bake or buy a cake? I have written multiple times on my blog that I do not bake and I do not make any sweets. Baking requires measurements and so does Indian sweets. I am an eyeballing person and I think I do not have that…

Today morning I went to the gym. Not to use any equipment but to use the indoor walkway. It was 38 degree Fahrenheit outside and I thought walking inside would be best. As I started walking, a lady maybe around my age or a bit older or younger started walking faster than me and was…

Yesterday I shared my about me page with another blogger. I had made a point in that page saying my son’s autism made me a spiritual person! It is not easy celebrating festivals or following a rigid religious schedule with a special need person in the home. Add to that he has his own rituals…
