We come across articles online or in the papers about the divaesque behavior of the celebs. But what about the diva that lives within us all? The one who is temperamental? Volatile even and turns away in a huff? The one who turns up their nose at some transgression-imagined or otherwise. I am very closely... Continue Reading →
Coffee Is The New Glue
Somedays are TOUGH. You get up and move along without realizing that you're putting one foot in front of the other. Zombies have a nice shuffling gait and make it very evident that they are in lurch-mode. But there are some days when you can't remember how you got from one room to another because...

Buddha Had A Bulldog
Note: This post has been patiently waiting to see the time of day. It did not get it's moment in the sunny blogosphere due to a nasty hand injury which prevented me from doing anything else but insulting the world at large. Read on below. Or did he? It's one of those things we may... Continue Reading →
Of Romance and Fried Eyeballs

The Offspring (T.O), who shall not be referred to as MLM anymore, had a relatively no frills birthday this time around and while that didn't translate to no fun; it was still quite low-key. Be as that may, we are currently... Continue Reading →
Movie Review: The Meg
Ever since I was a cute little girl and got introduced to killer sharks by my semi-misguided parents who thought it was ok to take a 2 year to a creature flick; I have sought out shark movies. I have watched the good ones viz Jaws, Deep Blue Sea, The Shallows and its rather limited ilk. I... Continue Reading →
9
Red and I completed 9 years in our parenting journey. They have been a lot of things but never dull. We were handed a longish and skinny baby who filled out quickly enough and we couldn't stop nom-noming on his cheeks, his nose and all his little limbs. You have never been digustingly mushy and...

Movie Review: Karwaan
I'd like to start off by saying- Go watch it. It may not be something you'd want to watch again and again. But you'd like it if ,you did watch it just the once. This is what Karwaan isn't: It's not a screwball comedy a la It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World It's not... Continue Reading →
