Said the giant before Jack whooped his bottom and took away his essence of being a giant altogether! Ok...how does that make any sense you ask? I'll tell you...just let me spin out my tale a bit more... Parenting. Glorious parenting. Tis fun. Tis joyous. Brings tears to your eyes at times (for many reasons,... Continue Reading →

Another take on parenting...a funky one at that.
Mommyhood: Some Truths
Any mother will eventually admit to this- they love their kids the most when the children are either asleep or doing something that doesn't require them (the moms) to be an active participant all the time. See the thing with kids is this- you are doing things with them, for them, watching them do things... Continue Reading →
A Pesky Beauty Pimp!
This transcript has been reproduced here to my best recollection and is verbatim. And YES. It did happen. Exactly how it reads. Full points for persistence to the person on the other side of the phone though I'll keep my obesity, skin problems and unwanted hair, thank you very much! Me: Hello. Customer care rep:...

Partial Year-End Review
2014 has been an interesting year by all accounts. We settled into a new place. I screamed at people who didn't deliver on the specified timelines. A LOT. We've seen the brat learn more and shock/surprise/amuse (take your pick) us to no end! We've caught up with family on important occasions after a long while.... Continue Reading →

Well epic differs from people to... Continue Reading →

Confessions of a SAHM
Gather around...this will not be repeated for the fear of an epidemic of husbands dumping more work on frazzled wives and especially the SAHMs. I'm going to share the secrets of the sisterhood with you but hush now and come closer and read quickly because this post will self-destruct in 1 minute! We like doing... Continue Reading →
Hilarity At Home- Lost In Translation
Author's Note: This is an exclusive post for the people who understand Hindi. For the rest, it falls flat. My husband's native tongue isn't Hindi. Neither is mine but having lived amongst Hindi-speaking people all my life, I can speak it without my native tongue's influence intruding. But living in India one cannot but be bombarded...

Movie Review- Ghost Shark
First off- 0.5 points for having a slightly hatke theme on a creature flick aka a vengeful reincarnated shark. In all my years of watching dumbass movies where the sharks chomp through people like an all-you-can-eat buffet at a tapas bar, the notion of a shark who comes back from the dead to wreck revenge...
