So in my whole friend cir­cle, I know just one per­son who doesn’t pos­sess a cell phone. One. Over a period of time, we’ve grown so used to this handy device that life with­out it is quite dif­fi­cult to imag­ine. I for one, would feel lost with­out one. I, espe­cially find it use­ful when travelling […]

Okay, now let me con­fess that I’m not very big on choco­late or sweets. But that cer­tainly didn’t stop me from try­ing this dessert place called Choco­late Painted Plat­ters. I took the oppor­tu­nity to ogle at the dif­fer­ent shapes & sizes. And take pic­tures. There is a poster with some cute choco­late related quotes, don’t […]

This is one great mys­tery for me. Most of the time the food is noth­ing to write home about and not value for money. The wait­ers talk to you like you are a very sad life form that doesn’t deserve to exist, the place is noisy and you can lit­er­ally hear the con­ser­va­tion on both sides […]

Stuff like this serves as much needed amuse­ment, and bring a smile to my face on an oth­er­wise seri­ously busy day! The ques­tion that gets my atten­tion: Should couple’s be allowed to kiss in pub­lic like in paris? And then I read on… Response 1 what is the harm in it? if the part­neres are loyal to each […]
