Kiddy Movie Reco: Turbo

We LOVE animated movies in this household. Especially about all sorts of creatures you normally wouldn't encounter in your day to day life or even if you did, you wouldn't give them a second thought. Turbo falls into the second category. The story of a garden snail who dreams of the Indy 500 and his... Continue Reading →

Weekending The Right Way

A lot of us just imitate potatoes (or any other veggies if you're cutting down on starch) on the weekends. And any doctor worth their salt erm degrees will tell you that some moments of inertia are needed. Whether you use that to contemplate, zone out or catnap; it's all good. But too much of inertia...

Out Of The Mouth of Babes

Well...just one babe to be precise. Mine. To be more..preciser(?). This summer holiday has been fun for the brat. He's always very happy with my folks and despite the heavier discipline here than at home, he manages to get away with doing his thing most of the times because we love his buck-toothed, lisping, pug-nosed,...

The Right Way To Kvetch

When faced with a "to kvetch or not to kvetch" kind of a question, do yourself and especially those around you a favor, don't.

From juice boxes to joy, partying to poop and basically the utter, utter delight and nerve-wracking situation that is parenthood. Brian Gordon is someone every parent and non-parent should read (although... Continue Reading →

36

Ask a woman if she's easier in her mind about being 36 years old versus being 36 in the waist and you can bet you'll be on the receiving end of the MOST disdainful look which roughly translates to, " Yeah right! AS IF! What kind of question is that anyhow? How DUH ARE you?!"... Continue Reading →

The Laundry Bugbear

I can totally understand why certain people cross over to the dark side and embrace OCD. Well, given that we're talking of OCD am guessing the embracing is a compelling act, 'cuse the pun, por favor. So laundry...yeah. It's a necessary evil if you want to wear clean clothes and in case you don't have... Continue Reading →

There’s A Great White Under The Bed

It's only 3 inches long but my big toe did come in contact with its great gaping maws...and this isn't the first time there was a "dangerous" animal lurking where it shouldn't have been. We've had similar incidents earlier also. Want to know what else is going on? Well there's a mini Giant Octopus hiding behind... Continue Reading →

Parenting Facepalms

The last couple of days have been a series of facepalm moments for me. Let me clarify that. It's been a series of facepalm moments as a parent. Kids do silly things, naughty things, dangerous things but there are these moments which are just out and out, facepalm hall of fame ones. The two that... Continue Reading →
