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..

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…
Midge playing bridge whilst eating Chinese (food)….
A pile of clothes freshly ironed and kept on my bed. Now the tedious task of putting it all into the cupboard. I hate doing that. I hate sorting clothes. I am lucky that in Mumbai we have a privilege of getting clothes ironed for us. So many people do their own laundry, ironing, everything. … Continue reading Midge playing bridge whilst eating Chinese (food)….
Still waters and a tiger…
Stuffed my face with three vada pavs, 2 dunker cookies and 1 lotus biscoff post a 45 minute walk. No point burning 178 calories because I must have consumed a gazillion more. I am so freaking bored. Bored as hell. I really need a life altering change in my life. My life has been literally … Continue reading Still waters and a tiger…
Tales of hair, food and heels..
If only we had no hair. Life would be easier. I mean the hair on the body. Waxing is so painful and boring. Sadly it is an integral part of my life atleast. A celebration is in order, call your parlour lady. A function coming up? Tring Tring! Traveling somewhere? And a whole beauty regime … Continue reading Tales of hair, food and heels..
Zapped and not so zenned…
Weekend: I am shocked at how hyper active I am becoming. I just want to be immersed in some sought of activity all the time. It's not a great sign to be honest. There was a time where I would be happy doing literally "nothing". And now I just cannot sit still. The Mother feels … Continue reading Zapped and not so zenned…
X factor stuff and just wondering what else can I write about on “x”….
Sitting in my room, with my windows wide open. Cool breeze flowing in and making my long pony tail sway. Suddenly few days back, all my maids decided to quit. And quit in such a horrid way. They just ran off to their village, without even telling, without a notice. And suddenly everything was on … Continue reading X factor stuff and just wondering what else can I write about on “x”….
Who, what, when, where and why??….
Spy kids was a movie that the Sibling and I would watch often.. In that movie there was this song... "Who, what, when, where, and why do I delight in?What do I intend to find this time?"... These lyrics really stuck on and for some reason, after many years, today I was humming it...and it … Continue reading Who, what, when, where and why??….
Tiresome routines, tiring tasks and just plain old tiredness….
I was suggested by my friend to write on Technology. But as I opened to type, I let out one long sigh. I am so so so SO exhausted. I just want to scream out Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! It's a task for me to keep up with the challenges I have set for myself. Blogging is still … Continue reading Tiresome routines, tiring tasks and just plain old tiredness….
Stressed stories…
Have you all noticed that we are one stressed out generation? Even though we are way more privileged than our parents, our struggles are literally "half" of what they have gone through.. Yet we have more mental health issues, anxiety and stress.. I recently read a story about this young woman whose life seemed perfect. … Continue reading Stressed stories…
