Why do we frequent Koshy’s?

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 […]

V-Day has become V-Scary Day!

Fol­low­ing my post yes­ter­day, there have been more inter­est­ing (and pre­dictable) devel­op­ments in the Indian pub­lic space. Peo­ple in the city of Jaipur are advised to indulge in pri­vate dis­plays of affec­tion instead (this is very much Indian cul­ture, btw) and make loads of babies. It’s good for the coun­try, peo­ple. Jai Ho! Actu­ally, this hap­pens every […]

For amusement purposes only

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 […]

The view from here

“Smart,qualified, witty, employed young women, extro­vert, party ani­mals — in short “eli­gi­ble” in every sense but unmar­ried. Rea­son: they haven’t come across the “right” man yet. Are their expec­ta­tions very high? Do they want the looks of a Brad Pitt and the qual­i­ties of a Darcy and the wealth of Bill Gates prefer­ably with the voice of Amitabh Bachchan and the poetry of Neruda? Not really. They just want a man who shares their inter­ests and respects their inde­pen­dence and is fun to be with. Or so they claim!

My least favourite household chore is…

“My sec­ond favorite house­hold chore is iron­ing. My first one being — hit­ting my head on the top bunk bed until I faint.” ~ Erma Bombeck I can’t even begin to tell you how much I empathise with this state­ment. Really. There are very few things that I abhor in life. But if I had […]

House hunting woes in Bangalore

So I’ve been look­ing for a place to buy. My mom thinks I should get “set­tled”. I think it’s a scary word and I have never quite under­stood why par­ents make it the pur­pose of their lives. If chil­dren are happy and con­tent liv­ing their lives the way they want, why put so much pressure […]

Radio Indigo Rocks

These days I’m mak­ing excuses to spend time in my car because of Radio Indigo, 91.9 FM. Where was it all along, I am asking?

Mid-week (welcome) break

Aqua and I were sit­ting at a place called Salon Mousse in Indi­rana­gar get­ting our beauty treatments.
