                                Mumbai and Winters!! Yes the winter is here....😅                    For the first time in many years, this winter there's no fan from last 2 days! And today I was surprised seeing myself walking around in the house with my pair of socks on 😆.                     Well, now totally gripped in my cooking baking spree, I still find the "soul" food is something which is cooked by someone else....😜. Just had a serving of Yam Kababs made by a friend and they were simply super delicious! I think we should all go back to the roots - start the barter system for at least cooked food. Winters is the right time to hog all kinds of food - and here we get a small window of this weather!! That's a foodie talking...😅                   ...

 Amongst many other things people learnt during this lock down - is introspection! 😈😆.  I think that was the best thing to learn. It made everyone a lot calmer and non judgemental about many issues we face on day to day basis. Biggest example being the house help not cleaning things properly on a regular basis 😬.  Then I observed with no help when I started doing it, my best move was, making short cuts 3rd day onwards....😝.  So, just going to and fro with these thoughts, I thought about our moms generation who had just stepped out to work. Everything was under their forte - their new portfolio - a job, and expected portfolio - children plus household work! There was no option of outsourcing much, and surprisingly no complaints too!!  And, here we are,  the privileged ones!!  Well, with these threads I stepped into the kitchen...and today whipped up the amazing strawberry pie!  Amazing! Yes!! anything and everything with fresh fruits would be s...

                                                                               As the time is passing, I am realizing we all are going to miss the 😈 adorable house arrest!!                                             When lock down started, we all were thinking it as a 15-20 days at best situation. So, we started the binge watching various web series and movies.  Things were scary outside, but the inside story was different. After all, that time the thought ticking away was - "aisa mauka phir kaha milega"😆.                      It was only after a month that we realized the gravity of the situation and saw the gloomy...

          Is there any easier way to learn that one day we are going to go back to normal lifestyle 😜.  Yes, that sounds like ages ago now.                  In the meantime, today our society decided to lift the ban on the final “ not allowed” things. So, today when vendors were allowed to go door to door instead of dropping things off in the lobby, suddenly the floor looked like a market. With 8 flats on a floor - everyone had multiple deliveries - so non stop bells ringing ....and everything looks like has come back to life.  After this, the only phase left now is kiddos school. That looks far off for now.  So, here I am, still confused - about safety issues. Tons of sanitizers n masks have gone down the drain ....how much more do we need. Or like everyone is saying, make it your lifestyle now. 😬! And like the saying goes, amongst this chaos, life keeps moving on!!  I was telling my mom - you m...
