Cheat Post !! blogpost no. 11

-


Seriously,  for the life of me today I cannot find anything to write. I wrote at least 3 times , wrote around a paragraph and  then deleted it,  wrote a poem, then deleted it.

I googled for blog prompts, nothing clicked, I looked around for topics, found nothing, I blog hopped for ideas and found the tag ’99 things I like’ by Swar and really liked it, wanted to do it,  but could not bring myself to think so much on a Friday! so I have thought of doing it some other day.  I have to give it to Swar for having come up with so much positives in that post - at one stroke,  for me, I will have to really rack my brains to do it.

Well I have written so much but still this post seems too short for my liking, basically this is a cheat post !!   However, I have no choice but to conclude, because today is just not my day for doing a post. So till the time I get cracking with some fodder for my posts, all of you who have landed here on my blog, take care and have a great weekend!

    It's ok, Rekha. Some days are like this. The important thing is that you are attempting to write every day. That's what matters. So keep writing and the muse will come back to you! Cheers :)

    You wrote about your current state of mind...and that's what most of us normally blog of! :)
    As long as you spend time on this space and try to stick to the challenge, I don't think there's anything wrong. There's no cheating in blogging ;)

    Oh I hear you, Rekha! I almost shelved today's posting because I couldnt figure out what to write. Like Shilpa said, guess the only key is to keep writing even if it mundane.

    Even this one is a perfect way to post..to cheat post ;)

Nature - My childhood friend

-
This is not a work of fiction, but it seems so, even to me who is the one who has experienced it all.  My memory of all that is being written here seems to have happened in some other life time, but all of it happened when I was 4 or 5 years old, but still the pictures are so vivid and so real in my mind like I am watching a techni colour HD movie or as if I am still there when I am writing it all down.  I say it is not fiction because of the tremendous  nature’s bounty and beauty and companionship that I experienced at that time  seems so unreal even to me. Let me start with the morning, yes, so the morning started with me the 5 year old running from bed straight to the verandah and sitting on the steps of the verandah (of my house which was in a small town of Kerala), the steps leading to the courtyard, it looking all clean  with fresh marks of broom which looked like half circles made over and over again on the brown earth. Sitting on the steps I looked straight at my fri

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
