Hi. Friday: A steaming cup of tea and a bowl of "Chapati cha Chura" for breakfast, here I am sitting writing a blog post pondering about what Y must be doing in school right now. It's been 14 minutes since his school started and I can imagine my chunk of heart/whole heart sitting there just … Continue reading Anticipating August…
Weird Barbie and a flood of emotions…
Humming...."We can't let July just be July".... This song is playing everywhere on my social media and I can't help but agree that June and July are two magical months of the year. Maybe because it's monsoon or maybe because it shows that half of the year is over and its exciting to know what … Continue reading Weird Barbie and a flood of emotions…
Marching through March.
Well well well. It seems I can do one blog post per month. That's a fairly reasonable goal I have somehow set without my own knowledge. March has arrived with some new developments in life and a heat wave. It's extremely freaking hot, I feel like I live in a very fancy oven, cooking away … Continue reading Marching through March.
Hello Feb!
I just wrote one post in January. Shame. I have been intending to write at least three blog posts a month but that did not happen and I know it wont ever happen. Nevertheless I am glad I am starting a new month with a new blog post. 12 days later but still. My last … Continue reading Hello Feb!
New Year, new post!
Wishing you all a very HAPPY NEW YEAR! 2023 has arrived with new hopes, new dreams , new plans and new concoctions. I am having a nice big glass of lemon honey water with chia seeds and cinnamon. Apparently it's good for intestine cleansing. And I thought why not. A lot of people plan or … Continue reading New Year, new post!
My miracle danced the blues away..
K was disgusted when I told him to buy Pasta masala from Blinkit. But I feel that we should never underestimate the power of our Indian masalas. Yes the authentic pasta uses garlic, oregano and chilli flakes, no masalas! But any regular pasta can turn out brilliant when you add some desi seasoning to it. … Continue reading My miracle danced the blues away..
Diary of a dreamer Mom…
Hello! Few days back: Why why why! Why do I not write consistently? I love writing, there is just too much on my mental landscape but somehow I don't get around to doing it. Anyway, thought I will ramble today. Let me try to squeeze in at least 2 blog posts before this year ends. … Continue reading Diary of a dreamer Mom…
Extremeness and my K..
Today I have decided that I will NOT be watching anything. So no mindless videos, no TV show, no crappy movie (watched Liger last night. I feel Rakhi Sawant is more entertaining than the entire cast of that movie). Basically no screen time. Instead today will be dedicated to my book and blog. I always … Continue reading Extremeness and my K..
Garba with my guilt…
Yesterday: Hello! How are you all? I have the worst throat ache right now. What is with viral and what is it with the weather. I am now done with the rains. Enough! I have enjoyed them, spent hours watching it, eaten all possible bhajiyas, vadas and maggi. Had loads of tea and khari. Put … Continue reading Garba with my guilt…
Twinkle and my Brahmastra…
Why Hello Peeps! It's a wonderful day as of now. The sun is shining, I am going to have my ginger tea, Y (my little one) is sleeping and I am in a total mood to write. Ok! So what should I write about? A month ago or less, Twinkle Khanna wrote about something called … Continue reading Twinkle and my Brahmastra…
Dilapidated swings and Draupadi…
The way we keep scrolling mindlessly on social media is just like Draupadi's never ending saree. Sometimes I wonder how an hour or two just passes by mindlessly watching random videos of Rakhi Sawant with a weird "afro", partners playing crazy pranks on each other, cute baby videos and by far my most favourite "Kids … Continue reading Dilapidated swings and Draupadi…
Gesundheit..
Why hello! Welcome back to my blog after four months. As you all know (my faithful readers) that I must have disappeared as usual citing reasons such as motherhood, viral infections and burn outs. Well they are all true, but the truest reason is actually my procrastination and laziness. So what all has happened in … Continue reading Gesundheit..
Balm-ing away…
9:47pm - It's a Friday night. Blaring music is blasting here. Mumbai, a place where people are partying everyday! And no, not my sweet happy society. The SRA buildings that are everywhere in the city. They find a reason to celebrate every freaking day. I do not remember a time when there wasn't glaring music … Continue reading Balm-ing away…
From my favourite corner…
And just like that 6 months have passed by since I posted here. I do miss writing, I miss drawing, I miss a lot of things. But being a mother is like being in another dimension all together. Like a different time zone. The days, months, minutes and seconds merge into one giant blob. But … Continue reading From my favourite corner…
Jumpy June and Jiggly July…
Why Hello my friends! As usual here I am showing up after three months. Maybe you will hear from me a lot this month or maybe next year. I myself do not know what I will end up doing. In my last post which was in March I ended up discussing the books I read, … Continue reading Jumpy June and Jiggly July…
Most of my days!
