When life runs at a pace where I have to run harder to catch up, what do I do? I slow down and watch it race by. In the process I catch those small moments, that would have otherwise slipped by, and enjoy them. The is the story of my life lately. I have ignored this blog for a long time now, not because I cannot write but I wasn't in the state of mind to write. With VT bringing home his writing assignments, Im forced to brainstorm various topics and those sessions are sometimes humorous. That brings me back to my own life- what happened to my sense of humor? Why can I not laugh at little things? Not only laugh but also pen them down so those memories can be referred back to? And brought me back to this page. Share a laugh, share a story, vent it out...whatever it may be , it is better on paper.

Is this a new beginning?
Most women await for with moment with anticipation. Whether it was a choice or an accident, it is always a joy to be a mother. It bring a new sense of accomplishment, a new essence of love and new meaning to giving. Its unconditional, but is everyone ready for this. Am I ready for this?
I always thought of these days when I was expecting. I knew what I was asking for, the demands, the challenges and felt I had the strength to face them. But when facing reality sometimes the ground is shaky. In the same moment I question myself, I find the answer. I'm ready, I'm strong but I'm no sage and do not have endless patience. When I look into the eyes of little man I'm responsible for (who right now is very keen on drawing a clock on the carpet)

Missing life
so..my life has been so full of festivals that now I lost touch with reality. Things just started to hit me and they hit me hard that I'm surprised I didn't fall flat on my face. Before I go on this senseless rant , here is what's been happening!
October was some month..full of festivals of knowledge (aka exams according to one of my profs.) which made me miss some of the real festivals and friends. Yea, I missed all the important festivals coz I had something the next day. On the same note, I lost touch with all , I mean ALL , my friends and family. I feel so disconnected with my friends, don't know what's happening in their lives and they have no idea about mine. The distance had widened and I don't know how to close the gap now. Not that I didn't feel it, but it took a friend to slap the fact on my face and say "hey wassup with ya, come back to reality". You know things don't end there, it's followed by a whole slue of wrong impressions, false opinions! ahh well, in short all the uncomfortable situations that follow.
On a similar but hopefully less awkward note is family. I stopped updating blog , so its like I have disappeared from the face of the earth. Not really but literally! Two reminders , nice ones, to update my blog came along in less than 1/2 hour , so u know how bad things have been!
Its a new month and I hope to begin it fresh, make efforts to reach back to people I love, I care about. I have to send the message across that I care for them, I miss them, I don't mean to ignore and all my friends and family mean a lot to me. Wish me luck since I will need it all.
btw...Happy Diwali to all...

updates of kitchen
Alright, here I start my consolidation of foods section.
weekend was good, my cousin was here from India and he was leaving back on saturday, so I told him I would give him food for flight. I don't know what he thought about it, but I gave him food anyway. I know how bad food in flight can be and to top it off, sitting in the same place for 8+8 hours isn't fun at all.
Since I was eating out from the day i wrote about using food at home, I really didn't get around to cooking till yesterday.
Thai Red Curry - with Thai Red curry paste, coconut milk and some stir fried asian vegetables and tofu.Sorry, no picture coz I finished my lunch and emptied the box.
aha...How can I not mention poha ( beaten rice). I never realized (or may be I did but still bought another packet) I had a big packet of "thin" poha. I remember I messed up atukula upma from it ,so I guess I decided I will buy another packet of it. OKie the issue now is, how do I use the whole 2 packets!!!!!!!Especially when I made a box full of snack and still have big box of it waiting .
sorry , no pics again, will post 'em as soon as I get home.
aaahh....boss is here so more later
