Holi !! Holi !!


What a Holi !! It had been almost two years since I played holi... Since this year Holi was on a sunday , I was very eager to play colours . And coincidentally , my parents and my husband were in Banglaore . What else do u need?.. A perfect setup to play holi... so what were we waiting for?

I called up my cousin on Saturday and asked him and his wife to come over for Holi .. my husband and myself bought colours ...

On Sunday , we ate breakfast and dug into our wardrobes for old clothes . by 10:30 am , we were all ready to play holi .. The stage was set.. :) .. my cousin had got few packets of colours with him .. we prepared a bucket full of coloured water .and then .... it was nothing but colours ... colours and colours.....

my mom was a lil hesitant initially about playing holi.. but we pulled her and then was no looking back..

It is such a nice feeling to play colours with your family anf friends... Its so much fun !!!

hope.. we have a holiday declared next year for holi so that the fun can be continued.....


HAPPY HOLI !!!

Anything for my friends!!!

Dinner at 12 PM !! with a friend invited over to our place.. :)
Not my mistake though .. :P
I cautioned my friend that i would take a lil extra time to cook .. He was fine with it ..' No issues.. tomorrow is a holiday'.. so i started cooking at around 10:00pm ..
And now the flashback...........
One fine evening , my friend came over to visit me and my husband . I was meeting him after a long time and obviously we had lots to talk about. We talked and talked... and finally when we checked the time .. it was 9:30 pm .. and i was like .. ' its already 9:30 .. have dinner and go' .. i thought he would decline the offer.. but no .. he said without a second thought .. ' okie.. neways i have nothin much do .. '..
And guys.. this is why i started cooking so late...
And to my dismay , there was no atta ( wheat flour ) nor tomatoes ... :( .. hmmm .. sorry my friend.. this was not intentional..
And so the missing stuff was bought from the shop downstairs and hence the cooking finally started... My husband helped me with chopping vegetables .. Thanks honey :)..
And finally when i finished cooking and looked at the clock .. it was 11:45 pm .. :D..
We ate and I completely loved the fact that the food was good .. now u would ask me how could i be so sure of it.. Well u know.. my friend was licking his fingers.. :) .. and he was all praises for it..
I was on cloud nine...
It was past 12 when we finished dinner...
No worries.. But this experience was one of its kind.. Its just so much fun to have friends come over and an impromptu dinner at your place ..
Anything for my friends !! :)

God Made Roger Federer ??



Thats what a sign board read during the 2007 Wimbeldon finals between Federer and Nadal ...

And i think thats true .. He s a genius ..

The recently concluded Wimbeldon finals says it all.. He is the undisputed Master of Tennis ...
But yeah .. Roddick was also the man to be watched out for at the finals.. He gave Federer a tough fight.. he was not ready to give in so easily.. and full marks to him... My heart went out for him when he lost .. But a game is a game .. And Federer was the new reigning champion ..

Federer has written a new chapter in the history of Tennis ..

Many are of the opinion that Federer had a chance because Nadal was missing at the championship... True.. Nadal is a great player .. aggressive in his way of playing...
May be he was destined not to play ...

Whatever it is.. Federer has won a million hearts with his calm and cool way of approach to the game..

Way to go Federer ..

' The curious case of Benjamin Button '

Recently watched this movie .. Brad Pitt rocks !!!
O man .. he s just amazing..
The director has tried out a different concept .. its a offbeat movie , i should say.. where Benjamin is born old , he grows young and dies as an infant... sounds strange right? But worth watching..
There are a couple of scenes in the movie which I liked most...
One is.. he is sitting in the hospital .. thinking how Daisy met with an accident .. and feels that if the series of incidents which led to the accident would not have happened.. Daisy would be fine today.. The way it has been picturised is commendable...
The other one is ... now that he has a daughter ,the family is perfect... but what bothers him is that he is growing young .. so when he decides to leave the family and go away .. Daisy pleads him to stay back and he just tells Daisy .. ' U wont be able to raise both of us.. '
The movie also has few scenes where the audience is forced to think about the deteriorating relationships in today's world... At one instance , he says... ' Life is too short to hold back .. '.. how true..
At the end of the movie.. i feel that one learns to accept a person as he/ she is .. Love is all that what matters irrespective of how the person is..
All in all a good movie to watch...
