Published early evening.


Absolutely delighted after I came across this advertisement…

It has brought back many scenes from my childhood…

I don’t remember but either one of our relatives or my maternal grandma had introduced the complan drink to me…

I never liked the taste of complan until unless the chocolate flavored one came out…

But as many other kids I have liked this ad and used to mimic the girl…

Wonder what I could have said to my mother…same line …that Iam growing mommy…

My mommy was so nice to me. she had always gave me her relaxing, beautiful and hearty smile, whenever I did such comic acts…I think all mothers are like that only..

She is still nice to me…and mom I’m just rekindling my childhood moments with you…love you…

Paneer tikka masala with garlic naan, aromatic smell coming from baked puff pastry sheets stuffed with veggies, red spinach daal, bhindi ka kurma , sumptuous egg curry ,cauliflower masala accompanying them was the vegetable biryani…and of course not to forget the Indian delicacy rasmalai…

Roses,tulips,daises, white chocolate covered yummy cherry cake, murmurings of friends ,smiles followed by greetings, watching some funny yet thought provoking commercials on you tube with friends, conversations about work ,sharing or sh{r}edding inhibitions about many things….

Above was the menu at one of our friend’s marriage anniversary party and the mood created over there…

This week has started on such high notes. An 11:00 am chai with leftover veggie puffs, our efforts to hang a beautiful tapestry…followed by brunch. Later in the day went to a massage parlor…

I had forget to wish my friend Bhavs who has again started her career innings from this week…Iam sorry Bhavs…congratulations for a wonderful career ahead of you.

 Felt bad for missing the opportunity to take a glimpse at the total lunar eclipse, as the sky suddenly went cloudy and dusky from clear…

Still hooked up at ‘c & data structures’. Glad at least able to write a pseudo code now…

 My laptop’s performance has suddenly slowed down after downloading the turbo c compiler… I hope it works well…

My doubt was right. My laptop has failed to reboot…so I have to use my pc {for a while} which… is operating on Linux…

Did some shopping for garden… we are looking for a patio furniture as spring/summer is approaching…I love to have my morning tea in the garden.

 Many plants are already started off showing the signs of spring. By covering themselves with flowers, buds and new baby leaves…

Actively looking for parijata tree {Nyctanthes arbor -tristis} for our garden… I have to wait and see if I would be able to find this rare tropical plant or not…
