assumptions and prejudices of the twisted human brain

 this morning a very funny incident happened which gave me the idea for this post. i made a parantha for breakfast for my husband. i served it to him, he had two bites and i shot the question "how is it?" he replied "very nice". a minute later i told him that it is cooked in olive oil. instantly he replied "no no, it is not that great". i swear i could not control my laughter. i realized how psychology plays a substantial role in our liking or disliking a certain person or thing.

an unconventional weekend

as soon as friday says hello we start dreaming of the weekend. plans start cooking; where to party on saturday? which movie to catch? what chore to complete on sunday?and then where to have that evening coffee?. i swear planning weekends are fun (it is another thing that weekend plans always come with last minute amendments before the final execution).

 Just the other day my sister who is a fitness freak could not help lauding this particular couple that comes to the gym. They recently had a baby and the husband is now helping the wife get back in shape by accompanying her to the gym. The way my sister describes him, he is a constant boost for his wife. I was amazed to hear about them. I felt glad knowing the extent to which  partners have become cooperative and supportive these days when it comes to fitness.

every song has a story



The other day i was listening to the song raabta from the movie Agent Vinod and it brought back the memories of my courtship period. i realized every song has some story to it. it can remind you of a particular person or a certain place or just good times. for some the song is significant because the lyrics are relevant and for others it is significant for the crazy beats it provided to dance the night away with friends.

the tinda tale



my mom has always been modest when asked about her cooking skills. but i for a fact know that she has always been amazing and has only got better over the years. she keeps experimenting. she tries to make a new and different version of the old styled conventional dishes by adding some or the other twist to them.

the perfect omlette

after a heavy dinner and even heavier stomachs, this morning called for a light breakfast. i opted for a simple mix of yogurt, fruits and some muesli. and then, i popped up my routine question to my husband "what will you have for breakfast?". now i still don't know if it is my husband's liking towards vague statements or if he simply wants to play the options game with me always, he answered "i will have something light" (wow that was helpful i thought *eyes rolling*). i asked him "cornflakes?"(option 1) and no came the reply. then sticking to the safe bet i asked " so eggs and toast?"(option2) and after him giving it a pensive thought my anticipation came to an end with his yes(sigh of relief!). so "omlette and toast" it was for him.

OUR first rain

it is not that it has not rained before this year. i had mentioned the translucent rain a few days back in the other post.  my husband had been repeating himself incessantly about bathing and playing when it rains since forever(we are kids at heart :p).  but because we were at our workplace the other day, the plan of bathing under the nature's translucent shower could not be implemented. we both love rains so i was all game for going crazy and was looking forward to the monsoon(2012 same time we were in the courtship period, and ours being an arranged set up we could not really go crazy bathing together in the rain).
