United We Stand…We Don’t Divide

That's right! In our home division has little role to play. Not because we're excessively cohesive as a family but simply because MLM doesn't like to do division.                                *rolls eyes heavenward* I've recently realized my folly in asking in why... Continue Reading →

Reblogged: The Hanging

Four years ago I had blogged about this on another blogging platform. Facebook reminds me of many things, usually trivial and mainly goody-goody but this blog post reminded me of something that usually doesn't go down well in my home- the concept of capital punishment. My husband is pro-life to the core and I am pro-choice.... Continue Reading →

Book Review: Closed Casket

I am an Agatha Christie aficionado. Rather an afficianado of the characters she has created. I haven't read up much about her life per se but somehow I pictured her to be a bit like the wax statue of Miss Marple I'd seen in Madam Tussaud's years ago. The back cover of her books proved...

Free-Range Vs Helicopter Parenting: Indian Scenario

I am all for being a hands-off parent. I really would like to be able to observe my child, see him grow rather than always be present while he is doing his thing. For someone who has been a SAHM from the first moment, it is quite a treat to be able to see your... Continue Reading →

Making Digital Media Your Friend

I started my kid out on digital media way too early in life. And I still regret it. But I absolutely CANNOT deny how wonder it has been for me as a mother and how helpful it is when I need more information, especially for my kid. Today barring the frivolous stuff that he watches...

What I Learnt From My Kid’s School

Courtesy Facebook's memories I get to know about how and what I was thinking not only on a time a specific time in the past but also how I was feeling. And when I wrote this post I was a bit more of an anxious mother, fretting about my kid's school, academic "career" as it were... Continue Reading →

Let me start by saying that I've usually felt that Salman Khan is akin to a horse's ass. He isn't that good an actor and the only thing I can say in his favor is that at his age, keeping up with that kind of body and dancing like a lunatic takes stamina. So yay...kudos... Continue Reading →

A Little Latin Goes A Long Way

I came across this phrase today and it seemed to encapsulate how the world seems to me of late-HOMO SUM HUMANI A ME NIHIL ALIENUM PUTO. What it means is " I am a human being, so nothing human is strange to me". Over time it has come to be used as a motto advocating respect for people... Continue Reading →
