Truly South Indian - Dosa time !



Seven months after marriage and this is the first time I made dosas from scratch! I had enjoyed the batter made by my MIL or bought from a store on our way back from work. Now that I am a full time home maker, I have no excuse to buy the batter from outside and my mother-in-law's absence had forced me into this experiment. Whether or not it was worth the effort, I will only know tomorrow. But with my curiosity levels rising and having no other option for dinner, I decided to prematurely try the batter. It came out good, but I am sure it will taste like it should only after it is left alone for fermentation. I have learnt my lesson, but I am glad I can now make dosas on my own. Yippppeee! I can now proudly claim to be a South Indian. Phew!

Bon Appetit !

The Man

  Last week, this song "The Man" by Taylor Swift, played as I walked into office. It felt like a great way to start my work as I marched into my floor and inside my cabin. Pumped, I start my daily routine at work and as I get through the day, I realize I enjoy my work and that I am good at it. Would I be at a different level if I were a man? Maybe. But I would rather go through my journey my way because we cannot keep regretting what we cannot change. However, I do lend that hand to a younger woman and guide her so she learns from my mistakes too and can work smarter. I make sure I am the person representing my girl-tribe in moments where their skills are sought for.  This also reminds me of Cher's interview where she says that instead of marrying a rich man, she was the Rich Man !  I'm so sick of running as fast as I can Wondering if I'd get there quicker If I was a man And I'm so sick of them coming at me again 'Cause if I was a man Then I'd be the m...

A Birthday Celebration to Remember

  Last year, June 2022, we celebrated my son's 8th birthday and thanks to the concussion and memory loss, I didn't remember anything about it. This year, as he turned 9, made sure that I was present and there were many presents(more than what you can see here) !  And ofcourse, this year, with the cake, friends, family and the time-off from work really helped me spend quality time with him and my family and really this was a birthday celebration to remember.

June - Doctor/Hospital month??? Is this the start of a trend?

 June 12th 2014, I went for a regular scan to my Gynec - 37 weeks into my pregnancy and was asked to go for an immediate scan, that followed a suggestion to get admitted right away, and then surgery was scheduled the next day. 28 years on earth and I had never been admitted at a hospital for anything, not even typhoid or chicken pox! And here I was hospitalized for 11 days, 1 pre-surgery, 10 post until my son recovered from jaundice ! And that's the end, I thought !  June 4th, 2022, I was out shopping with my son. My previous blog posts detail the ordeal and how i was again hospitalized for a week for concussion and surgery to my face for bruises. A plastic surgery that didn't change my "beauty".  Cut to June 16th 2023, a couple of days ago, woke up with a sharp, shooting pain, like contractions non-stop and ended up getting admitted, drips and pain killers not being effective, to rushing to a scan that helped find the root cause - Hemorrhage of cyst in ovary. Sounds ...
