Come back - with a blog Marathon ! post no. 1

-


Today I noticed that I had been neglecting this place for long.

so long that I missed the customary end of the year summing up post and also the New Year wish post. 

 Life has been treating me good and I am eternally grateful for it.  There has been some health issues bothering me but then life can not be a bed of roses always isn't it?

So how has life been treating you?

Just to add some challenge to my writing and to compensate my absence from this place I am going to start my 'Blog Marathon' from today on wards. Count this post as post no.1.

Care to join me? because no marathon is complete with out some fellow marathoners. 

Please leave your  comments and blog address in my comments so that I can follow you and we can mutually encourage for an awesome 'Blogathon' .  Let us start writing.

By the way Happy New Year to all of you, wishing an amazing, lovely year ahead.


P.S: Also I  am happy to share that one of my stories got published at 'Juggernaut'.

In search of the prefect 'Yeast'..... post no. 2

Apart from the blogathon that I have jumped into there is another very important issue (!) which has been circling inside my head for long and hold your breath, it is about getting hold of a good yeast (!!) So that I can venture into bread baking..which I had been longing to do  for so long.   This search for a good yeast has been going on for so long that I have tried at least 4 to 5 types of yeast till now, I brought a pack from kerala store in Delhi,  then when I went to Kerala I brought two packs from a bakery thinking that the kind of stuff they have at their shop, definitely they must be selling  good yeast and was excited about trying it out.. then I brought packs from different bakeries in  Delhi.. to cut a long story short... none.. yes... NONE of the yeast ever worked.  During this Diwali I wanted to bake cinnamon rolls  and started imagining the joy of my children when they will be eating the perfect, melt in mouth cinnamon rolls made by their great Mom … but a

Love for lanterns...post no. 16

    Image courtesy : Internet.  M y love for lanterns stem from my childhood memories. Lanterns are an integral part of that memory because we lived in a house in a small town in Kerala, this place had no electricity at that time, but we never ever actually felt the lack of it.   The dim light of the rustic lantern which we kept on the ‘poomukham’ (or raised verandah in English) shall remain fresh in my memory forever. We studied under that light, we prayed and played pranks on each other under that light.   Those lanterns and the luminous light emanating from it was witness to some of  the bestest years of my life.   These are some images which I heart, including the header of my blog,  also I have a small collection of miniature lanterns with me.    This mini post is dedicated to my love for lanterns.
