She opened her rice flour dabba and what she found...

She opened her rice flour dabba and what she found... Is hilarious!! &  dangerous too!!

-new house saga
-name of the post due the bizarre titles I come across on Facebook ;)

One normal morning in my kitchen involves me scratching my head as to what to prepare for breakfast. In a new house you are yet to get familiarized with so many things plus take care of a toddler! Phew...!!  Okies.... So I wanted to make tapple dosa/ vagarne dosa/tadka dosa. All my Boston friends will definitely know this!! Lots of memories with this dosa. Anyways.... I pick the rice flour dabba/box. It looks somewhat like this. 



I get this tiny winy doubt looking at the color and texture difference in the box. I take a pinch and taste it and it's all granular. But then I think I'll go ahead as it looks fine. I prepare the batter with all the ingredients and feel like tasting it again. It's same granular.  I still go ahead to make the dosa, I spread it on a pan and in a jiffy everything moves to the corners and the middle part bubbles up like soda or like how eno does. Now I confidently, I throw the batter and call mom to figure out what went wrong. And lo!!! She says, may be it must have got mixed with rangoli powder!! Freaking!! 

Anyway I try to make a rangoli out of it and in a jiffy again this happens!! Thanks to the lil cute lovable monster in my house! Happy diwali all!!

Diaper party

 "This post is a part of the Pampers #SoftestForBabySkin activity at BlogAdda

It was a wonderful Halloween day. The 31st of October. I was enjoying it all the way more as it was my son's first Halloween in India and second Halloween since birth. This cute little boy since birth has been keeping me so busy and happy that everything on my mind is either him or related to him. I so love him for the innumerable reasons i cannot explain. Hubby had hand picked a beautiful Japanese costume for my LO during his Japan trip. It was off white in color and had few prints on it. He looked incredibly cute and i was continuosly addressing him and kissing him saying "My sumo wrestler". Being just 15 months old, he was quite cranky initially but I shooed the thought thinking it was his nap time and hence this crankiness. 

We ladies had decided a potluck at 12pm and a time-pass fashion show and of course loads of pictures for our babies. One by one arrived and we gathered. We had fun gossiping and discussing all the struggle we put up to dress these cute little monsters. Few young ones were left on the ground who were hovering about here and there as they were aptly dressed as fairies and butterflies. The older ones were roaming about as aimlessly as they could. A few cries, a few sniffs were heard now and then. Going a little into their costumes, one was a spider-man completely clad in red costume. One was the cutest witch ever, she was giving poses like a super-model. One was a gruffy monster and one was a pretty scary vampire. There were few super-man's and harry potter's too. I was appreciating all the mom's efforts as it wasn't an easy task to dress them up as it was not a tradition in India. Meanwhile my son let out a loud cry. I rushed to him. Unwrapped him from that over protective costume and let him play in his diaper for sometime. Actually, something amazing happened; he was so happy and bubbling and babbling too. I asked him to do all his tricks and he instantly sprung into action. He showed his nose, eyes, did his turn-around, stamps your-feet, did his naughty faces, kissed me a ample number of times etc. We all laughed so much. I added "why not all of us do this?" We stared at each other.  And lo!! Gods grace, all these cuties were on their feet in their diapers. So much fun I had and had never seen this much cuteness in one place. This was one of the best party's ever. 

Since the birth of my son, I have been using only pampers. I love the texture, the wetness indicator, the feel and most importantly the smile on my LO's face when he's in it. 

So many thanks to pampers for reminding me about this wonderful incident. I smiled all the way through out writing it!!

That woman!!

He doesn't like the sight of me nor my feel,
Heart wrenches with these wounds to heal.

Accept me, I'm human too...
This is not the punishment even in the zoo. 

Hell broke loose,fingers pointing at me
Speechless and frustrated as much as I could be!

Again I hear her voice over my shoulder
Patience has all gone as I too am getting older. 

I frown, with the dirtiest expression ever
I shout, give the loudest cry
Beware, I yell
Don't mess with me, A single soul have I hurt never!

(Why must I endure so much pain?
Be wrapped in darkness 
Wrestle with demons
Sacrifice my dreams 
& Get so lil back?  ) - Jon Mills

Feels so good that this series has 20 pics in it. I could have done a better job may be but Mann... This guy is so mobile now and very difficult to capture shots. Here's him looking at the wonderful flowers in our new home. I love the colors and his juttu in this pic!! God bless you darling!! Mmmmuah!!
