There’s this contest taking place at Clarity of Night . Below is the story I submitted for it. Ironical part of my experience was I ended up writing 3 stories and then went stark MAD thinking which one should be sent. My hubby had a good laugh at the predicament I put myself into. Well, eventually I picked one yet…

I'm a mom living in Virginia, enjoying chronicling my various escapes with the kids and around the kitchen. I believe being a mom involves a balance of holding on and letting go. And since being a mom is a 24/7 job, cooking though essential, needs to be as easy as can be. So peruse my blog for various experiences in parenting and experiments in cooking.
Go ahead : Try It !!
OK ! I’ve never claimed to be athletic. Far from it. The only times I’ve come close to sports is PT in school, some light throw ball, and badminton, but that was all back when I used to believe throwing around a shuttlecock was fun . Now don’t go imagining one of those girly girls who is never willing to…
Sundays at Tiffany’s
An Ok read. The story is about this girl who has an imaginary friend and grows up to find that he’s her one true love. The concept is unique and handled well, from two different points of view. Though I feel there is a Lot more that could have been done with the story. At the end you are left…
Walking the Fine Line
Every day we make decisions. Every action is associated with an expectation. We make educated guesses for the best action. How to behave in a given situation, how another will react to our words, how a relationship will grow or change, how close we want to be to someone, how much distance we want to keep with others, how to…

Thoroughly enjoyed the every page. It’s the story of a woman, who after years of being a wife, and mother finds herself alone again, finding her way…
Thrill Rides ??! No, Thank you.
I love Amusement parks. The melee, the sounds, the cotton candy, the long lines, the colorful rides with the equally colorful people, the soft toys, the stalls, the silly games, the smells, the speed of the rides, looking at the reactions of the others as they go on, go through and come out of each ride, imagining how each ride…
Valkyrie
“The bravest are surely those who have the clearest vision of what is before them, glory and danger alike, and yet notwithstanding, go out to meet it.” I saw Valkyrie a few days back and I am still reeling, with a million thoughts running through my head. I Oscillate between awe for courage, intelligence, dedication to the cause and sadness,…
For One More Day
Just finished this today. An easy read about the life and times on a man, whose given one more day with the one person who cared for him the most. The person he took for granted every step of the way. It’s a good book, with a lot of insights into our day to day lives and how we do…

Something Blue
Just finished this book day before yesterday and what fun it had been reading it. I just loved the concept that they’ve gone down to the core of those drama queens out there who are so all about themselves. It’s not just the concept, but the whole journey which is thoroughly entertaining. The book is about a girl who is…
