A FOODIE HERE, A FOODIE THERE



A foodie is someone who goes beyond just putting food into his or her mouth.  Foodies don’t judge people based on their eating habits, simply because they are too concerned about their own food to even care.  Technically speaking a foodie is someone who breathes, relishes, feels, celebrates and then eats food.   That’s the difference between a foodie and someone who just likes to eat.  The same difference between someone who owns a DSLR  and someone who actually has a sense of photography.

                                                As for me, when I see food, I go eeeeeeee!

So the next time you think you’ve spotted a foodie and sincerely wondering which category he or she may fall in, this checklist might help.

  • ·          Menu cards are souvenirs for them.
  • ·         Their eyes light up if someone recommends a dish they find worthy of having.
  • ·         While others are ready to gulp down the first thing that appears on their plate, foodies  analyse the texture, preparation and presentation.
  • ·         They feel compelled to share their knowledge about a certain dish even if they haven’t been asked.
  • ·         They have a dreamy expression while walking through the aisles in supermarkets.
  • ·         They may even indulge in casual conversation with food-   “Oh my white chocolaty coconut banoffee pie.  It’s been so long since we have met!”
  • ·         Each moment and experience with food is unique and they revel in it.

You needn’t  really go elsewhere for food recommendations if you have such a friend.

Mummy- The Irreplaceable

Mummy,  Amma, Ma. Just hearing this magical word gives a sort of comfort felt by every being in this world. Words can never describe the role a mother plays in the life of a child right from its birth .
My mother is someone who has carved me and shaped me into an individual who I may not say perfect, but does have values that am proud I have inculcated.
My mother, a self- motivated woman has been the sole reason people define me as sorted, head strong , disciplined,  self-driven and above all a ‘good- natured’ human being who has a sense of ‘ justice’.
To this day if I aspire to do something, I owe it all to my mother’s encouragement. Heaven alone knows whether I will ever find such a selfless person anywhere in this world.
Mummy, today I am sitting here in Mumbai beating the humidity, the heat. I miss your touch, the comforting words you tell me, the way you worry about me (though I don’t want you to worry), the way you pamper me. I admit I have often felt it annoying when you aske…

CHUCKLES

Gambling amongst the chitter chatter, a small pause to catch her breath She rocked back and forth holding her little tummy, as though inside it were a child unfed.
Tears rolled down in all its glories to compliment the joke put forth How does one churn balooney into humour, with no one to provoke?
The unforced blush had a strong impact on complexions never seen These moments took their breath away, these moments didn't seem to demean
A déjà vu moment was felt around, the birth of a pleasant revisit Hungry they all became for more, cos no one wanted it’s exit.
The hero here deserved a pat on the back for this act of charm and wit. He gave the funny bone some good exercise, and made everyone’s ego quit!





Sometimes its nice to let yourself loose Laugh like never before.... Infact...its always nice.....
