This is my second post on the topic of baking after writing Introduction to Baking a few weeks ago. This cake was for my little boy turning 5 who had fallen in love with the greatest ship ever, after visiting a Titanic exhibition in Macau on its 100th anniversary. The Planning It was like an exciting, new… {Read More}
Rape in Mumbai
In one of my recent posts Bombay meri jaan I have mentioned about the survival spirit of Bombayites or should I say Mumbaikars, how they face all kinds of odds with a smile and how they get tougher mentally, enough to feel comfortable living in any part of the world. While I had said it… {Read More}
Shorts, tops, dresses and more for SALE!
As any normal teenager I loved shopping! Shopping at that time meant buying fun stuff like clothes and shoes and not visiting the supermarket! I always went more for cotton, casual, comfortable styles. Shorts, t-shirts, jeans… I could live in those! Though I did like the glamour of visiting high-end stores and branded boutiques, it was street… {Read More}
All set for BIG school now!
I called him “Dolly” in his ‘toddler-hood’ days as I believed that God had gifted this walkie-talkie, rolly-polly doll just for me to play!

I love getting the… {Read More}
I had a dream…
Dream is defined as A series of thoughts, images and sensations occurring in a person’s mind during sleep. I dream quite often actually, most of them lasting up to the the first signs of dawn.

A wonderful evening
Wednesday July 17 I had a lovely evening today. Just like old times it was just the three of us at the dining table. My mother, my sister and I. We were having a simple khichri-sauce meal prepared lovingly by my mother. Post dinner we sat in the hall trying to work on a common… {Read More}
Bombay meri jaan!
“Next!” calls out the receptionist as the heavily pregnant woman takes another tired step forward and inches her way ahead in the serpentine queue to collect the admission form for her yet to be born child. Unknowingly the baby feels yet another jerk in the womb as she patiently waits along with her mother in… {Read More}
Just a week more to go
Can’t believe it’s the last week of school. Can’t believe the mad rush every morning, noon and night is about to end or rather pause for the next 7 weeks. I can feel the tempo slowing down already. After-school activities are ending, some already have. It’s the week of saying goodbyes to friends, teachers and to… {Read More}
