Dear Visitor from Southend on sea, do let me know as to what are you looking for in this space.. may be I can help you out.. do drop in a line, I am really intrigued by your daily silent presence...
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.

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 rol...
Happy New Year 2025 :) Before I welcome the New year, one word for the year I am sitting in.. its a year like never before. Just when I thought that I had seen it all, Came 2024 and just cut me to size! Well what to say 2024, I have no words, I cant and I dont want to even start about what you did to me. Anyways I am happy that I will not see you again, my only parting wish is please dont cast your shadow on the coming year, please go for good, period! I do not know if any one visits this blog any more, even I seldom come here. Every one who started blogging along with me are either novelists or some super achiever or the other, here I am sitting in this place Blogosphere all alone and looking around to the barren land. Literally this place has fallen prey to the Instagrams, vlogs, youtubes and what not! its sad but it is the reality. Who wants to write it when you can just show it isnt it? Well.. to my non existent readers and my self wishing you a very Happy and fabulous New yea...
