A particular project of mine has been in the pipeline for a long time. First in the mental and then digital one but it's finally seeing the light of day. I've started a blog where I review products that I have personally used and can vouch for. The idea came about when I was forced... Continue Reading →
Weird Utterance Bloglet
"You don't want your shark wearing Spandex, baby!"...words I never thought I'd find myself saying. Yikes.
Oh-Cult!
I had a LONG discussion, just before bedtime, with TO about Annabelle. How the whole thing came about, why a doll of all things, how possession takes place, how a possessed item can go on a killing spree and how it was different from Child's Play. Just what every mother wants for her child to... Continue Reading →
Of Feet and Mangoes
My feet are dry and the heels are cracked but I can't figure out why. I badly want an hour long pedi but that's not gonna happen in the foreseeable future so... am blaming it on the heat and lockdown because it's du jour. Red was busy tapping away at his laptop and I told... Continue Reading →

Lockdown Playlist Part Deux
The lockdown playlist grows. These are the current songs looped on my phone and in my head. This is also an exercise in the using the Block Editor in WordPress instead of the Classic Editor that I typically turn to. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u9Dg-g7t2l4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xb3fZmkzy84 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gd_ohoPzYc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QXnr-Dx2QaM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bx3s99FNXzI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y9AaiVKfB58 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxcDTUMLQJI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HiaOFOMPOBc&list=PLDA374CE45E0837D0&index=2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m2ua3O_fdCY

Relationships With Authors…
More than 10 years ago I read my first John Sandford book. It was one of his Prey novels and I was captivated. I came across Lisa Scottoline's books in a famous bookstore in Bangalore more than 13 years ago and bought a few to take back home. I enjoyed them enough to buy as... Continue Reading →
The Mother’s Day Post
I first got to know about Mothers' Day a few months after landing in US. Suffice to say India of the 80s didn't celebrate moms as a rule. That we do it now is more to do with the influence of various types television shows over the decades. Plus people like their social media timelines... Continue Reading →
The Ice Lolly Post
Many, many years ago two girls were running late for a class with a rather strict teacher. The saving grace was that this teacher was a very good one so her snark and barbs didn't always wound. But she valued punctuality and that's one thing college students are notorious good at being bad in.It was... Continue Reading →
