A Sad Day

Today was a very bad day!!!!

From the start of the day, it was a major disaster.

Firstly, i thought today was my son's graduation and dressed him up in the getup and went down to drop him off at his bus stop.. When the bus came, the teacher asked if today was his graduation, i happily said,"ya...." On the graduation day i was not supposed to send him his lunch box. i was walking away from the bus, then the teacher called me from behind. She asked me,"why doesn't Z has his snack box??". I happily told her,"Maam today is his graduation". The teacher told sorry dear today is not that. It is on the next thursday!!!!!! I was sooo ashamed of myself......


Then today there was another heartbreaking incident. My husband's colleagues wife was pregnant with twins. She lost both the babies at 6 months......
Moreover he had to go with his colleague to bury the two children (both were boys) with no one else at the funeral. Its kind of hard to talk about it now, will write about it in my next post.

Fish Curry, for the soul

Today I made a Fish curry, central Kerala style. This is the type of curry that my ammai(aunt) makes at home back in kerala. I loved it and then I found a recipe for it on a food blog called kitchen mishmash. The recipe worked wonders. It was really close to the taste of the fish curry that I had from Kerala. The recipe has only one probs it requires you to squeeze out fresh coconut milk!!!! But you can always use the instant alternatives.. but believe me, taste wise the long way round works best. However it was a hit today. I made a big meen chatti (a claypot to make curries) full of this curry and bought some porotta from the nearby restaurant. There just one porotta left and just a small container of the curry left... Anyone who is reading my blog should go to this site http://kitchenmishmash.blogspot.com/ and try out this recipe, it is a gem of a recipe.

Hello world

Hello World!!!!


I am back..

As for my resolution......

I think I acheived a small breakthrough.......

The day before yesterday I was crossing a busy road and there was this lady with a toddler. I helped them cross the road and I gave a smile to this lady suggesting that her toddler was very cute.... I guess that did the trick, she smiled at me..... (1 smile acheived...)

Yesterday my better half was worried about some financial matters and was in a foul mood.. usually i get bugged up and get pissed off on something or the other.... but as you all know I have turned over a new leaf, so I just said that this is the part of the game and everything will turn out fine and i cracked up some joke... voila' it did the trick. He smiled (2nd smile acheived.....)

What say???? Am I doing a great job or what!!!!!

See ya soooon....

Enter into the world of a simple housewife......

How do we spend our whole day???????

This is a question that baffles me..... I say I am busy with my house work and think that 24 hours in a day is not enough.....
Does anyone out there think the same way???

I see loads of people do wonderful things for the world around them.

There is a resolution that I am going to take now. Today onwards I will do something meaningful. I don't care how small it is, I will make someone smile each day.
