I was newly married and the husband did not want to spend time picking me and dropping me off over the weekends when I had to sometimes work. He felt that the smartest thing would be for…… Continue reading I’m like a bird

Walk of shame
What notable things happened today? A typical school morning for me involves me knocking and at times banging on the bathroom door trying to hustle the boy out in time to board the bus. Today, I jumped a level. In retrospect, it’s super hilarious, but I was super ticked off, while it happened. So, picture…… Continue reading Walk of shame

Hazy, crazy days of summer
What is your favorite season of year? Why? I remember standing on the terrace, guarding the blue plastic sheet with the tiny Vadams left to dry in the sun.

The name game
If you had to change your name, what would your new name be? My parents thought long and hard to find 4 names that started with the same letter and ended with the same letter- alliteration if you will! The best part is that we have the same initials and the worst part is our…… Continue reading The name game
The hot cuppa satisfaction!
Describe your dream chocolate bar. I think it was on day 3 of our trek going up to EBC that we reached Namche Bazaar. Namche Bazaar is one of the acclimatization stops and the start of the real trekking routes into the Himalayas. It is considered the last ‘civilized’ stop on the route. We had…… Continue reading The hot cuppa satisfaction!
