Today was Bogi, the day started with Konda running to check out the Bon fire. But I couldn't see many of them doing it. Went to office and was discussing what to make for Sankranthi, thinking about Poli. Hubby dear was telling with the hectic schedule we need not bother about such laborious tasks!

I was only too glad to heed to that!..:)

Today finally after 4 days of missing their Dad, Chinnu and Konda were crying non stop for an hour. Hubby dear had gone on a trip and every evening when the kids came home, they ask for their dad and convince themselves that he has gone for office!

Somehow Konda gets so sentimental the moment she hears her dad is gone on a trip. She manages not to show to the boys. But this evening, she started crying and Chinnu followed suit and for non stop one hour he was crying!

Finally the lolli pop saved the day!

Thoughts of the Day ~ Things that get done!

As I was crossing by, I searched for the sun.
I could scantily see it come by
It was shying away like a new bride
Kissing so softly the clouds as it passed by.
The breeze so soft and cool, it felt it was
a winter morning still.

With the sun playing hide and seek,
The day still not fully bright.
Hopes stirred again with hopes that
things planned well ahead, will surely
get done as planned. And the day ends
with a sweet note of things accomplished!

Started the day very bright, somehow when the day is cool with chill breeze I get very motivated. Had lot of things done. Though had planned for two posts tonight with hubby dear still traveling. But slept with the kids and woke up with a start! One post out, its 11.30 pm now. Hope hubby dear doesn't read this, editing the second post!

Wanted to quickly update today before the usual things get me bowled over! Being Sunday has its own regular things to do. But for a change, I cleaned the Pooja room which normally is hubby dear's favorite one to do.

The day started with the kids most favorite breakfast Appam with Tomato Kurma. It's either this or Poori with Channa. Since the boys didn't eat their dinner last night they were keen to have an early breakfast.

They have now gone to watch their sister play cricketucal (cricket)

A Journey called Life...

The painting you see on the header best describes my outlook towards life! Unruffled, calm taking stock of what life has to offer in the best way possible. While still continuing my fishing...Though I have never been fishing, I can empathize on a different level what that reflects to life. If your bait is good you will surely land up with the best catch! Plus it teaches you patience, the most important trait to lead a happy life.

In a different lifetime, I was a writer, poet, an artist. In this, I am a wife, mother, a blogger. While my day job is something I love, it is completely different from what my blogs talk about. I believe one person can have passions for many.

I am very passionate about Indian Cuisine and would love to share my whatever little knowledge I have learnt from my mom and mother-in-law. If you are interested you can check out what gets cooked in my kitchen in Cooking 4 all Seasons.  I am also interested about Parenting, planning diet for Kids and Diabetes. I urge you to check out Spice your Life! I am sure you will have load of things to Spice up your Life!

Though this space was created first, it hardly got the attention it deserved. As a remedy I decided to update everyday with something that was my focus during the day. Enlightenment, spark of light or knowledge, call what you may, can occur at odd times to different people. To me, it mostly occurs when I am on my bike, especially climbing a bridge. With the cool breeze that hits hard, raising me along, makes my heart light, soul bright and thoughts sour to a world different. Words that flow may not be exactly like from The Bard, but then I am not the Bard right!

I hope you stay to enjoy what this space has to offer you!

Events as they happen ~ Jan 9th

First Saturday in the new year that I was at home and spent very usefully by cooking about 3 different dishes. Then got around getting Konda sit and decide on what she wants. Though it was almost most of what I make through the week, it was fun getting her interested. We decided on the breakfast and lunch.

Went to pick up the boys and my niece. They were elated seeing me. Had a fun trip back home and spent next hour making them eat cakes and playing house with them. They are so easy to please. Well almost!

I am trying to change the template of this blog, lets see if I can!
