Whatz in ma mind?

I have lots more to pull out from ma mind...So here I come with yet another set of random ramblings!

1.My mom ,dad and now hubby (also joined the list )are taking more pains to make me to write more...They wanted me to improve my writing skills.They wanted me to improve my vocabulary.They wanted me to write a book(A very big dream I say)...These 3 people always ask me to blog more...Whenever I say I am running outta ideas or posts,they come up with suggestions and help me out.Word thank you will never do justice to all the encouragement they provide to me.I vow I will seriously put forth my efforts to improve my writing...Writing a book is something a herculean task at this moment but still why not try sometime at the later stage of my life...

2.There were days when I told myself "itz been eons since I tasted maggi".These days I say "Oh god when will I stop eating maggi"...Every day I eat maggi despite knowing the wax content in it which is very much injurious to health.Received several threats from ma frnds to stop eating it...I need to head their words!

3.Whatever I eat I still long for vathakozhambu and thayir sadam with maavadu...Vathakozhambu made with rich tamarine content is what I always look for.Also it is one easy dish which you can make in a very short span of time.with maavadu as side dish what else I can say about it...It is nothing but a pure bliss.Long live the founder of vathakozhambu.

4.Itz been 3 months since I landed in chennai but still I very easily get confused with roads and lanes.There are n no of ways to reach my home :( whichever route you take you can definitely reach my home.So each day I take new routes which ultimately makes me confused and as usual I call my husband at unearthly hours for directions.Sigh!

5.Itz been eons since I saw sun set and sun raise.I have never enjoyed the beauty of sun which sneak through the clouds and raise in its full form nor have enjoyed the soothing nature of sun set...I work in shifts and that is the reason.I wish I work in normal general timings to witness nature's beauty :)

6.for no reasons I have gained so much love for London city.I wish to travel there to enjoy the scenic beauty of river Thames.Would love to enjoy the beauty of London through London's eye.Already longing to see Agatha's long running play (Mouse trap) oh and I have loads and loads to speak when it comes to London.what am I looking for?An opportunity to visit London..bhooo hoo...


7.After a long time,I have resumed my reading habit.Bugged my hubby and got a book "Go kiss the world"...You can expect a review on it pretty soon :) I hope so :)

8.I always protect my novels like my treasure.I lend my books to all but always worry if I see strains in the book though I scribble a lot in my novels...I will come up with a post about my favourite books soon :)


Thatz all for now.Will come up with something soon :)

Poem from my stash

I wrote this poem when I was in blunt mood.It was in my stash.Here it goes


Lying on the bed
I mull over my thoughts
The pain of my struggles
Are too strong with deep scars

I always feel to be a victim
For things that I am not subjected
Whom to blame for the game?
Is it the Murphy?or the poor Me?

I shift my thoughts to others
Whew!That also disappoints me
People fight,hurt and kill others
Literally with mere words as weapon

I wish to be free from devastation
With love and affection all around
Life is too short to blame and fight
Understand let us forget and forgive

A dinner to be remembered

When Hari mama called and invited my hubby and me for a dinner on the new year day, we were so excited. Who on earth will ignore such an invite from a person whom we admire the most?So we were all set and on new year day evening my hubby and I visited mama's place.

He is a person who adheres to the saying "work is worship"...A busiest person who is always entangled with work around the clock. He was very kind enough to spend his time with us despite his busy schedule...

Janani and Athai gave us good company, which made us so comfortable and I felt as if I was at my own home...Discussions with Janani about movies,actors,food...god it was so so so nice...Athai is simply sweet with her lovely words!

Dinner was waiting at the table with sumptuous menus. Menus included Poori and Kezhangu,Fried Rice,Bisibelabaat,curd rice,crispy chips,pickle...Did I forget something?Yes yes the milk paiyasam which athai made...It was toooooo good!and anyone who hates paiyasam will definitely not have the heart to say "no" for Athai's paiyasam...

Our stomach did not have the room to gobble such lovely dishes...We were then gifted with Pant shirt and a salwar,2 diaries,a book (365 days of inspiration by Napoleon Hill) and a bag full of snacks...We were literally struggling hard to carry the gifts back to home...We got asirvadam from mama and athai along with thirupathi laddu...

After this dinner...Both(My hubby and I learnt a lot).Below are some few out of it.

1.Learn the meaning of hospitality from them.
2.Humility.I see it in Hari mam.
3.Work is worship.Money is not important but still you need it to lead a life.So be dedicated to your work.
4.Miles to go in the field of culinary. After the dinner my hubby says "Ask tips from Usha Athai before you cook fried rice". yes Athai is a great cook and no doubt.
5.Be what you are and always try to forgive others the same way you do it yourself.

The lesson learnt are tremendous .I am sure the word "Thank you" will be so cliched. Spending time with someone whom you respect is something which everyone of us long and glad that we got one. Thanks a lot mama for everything and we always look forward for ur advice/motivation/inspiration and many more in the years to come.
