are fun! They are easy and uncomplicated. You watch them because you know there's fun, drama, tears, shock, eye-rolling moments all packed in. And because they are reruns, you never really mind pausing them, running errands in between or putting it off for another day. You know Rachel gets off the plane. You know Meredith...

Alexa Mornings…
Red bought an Echo Dot for th house last year. Suffice to say it's the digital pet. The offspring has bonded with Alexa quite a bit. I keep hearing his voice trilling , "Alexaaaa" on and off right from the time he's up in the mornings. Echo Dot has more capabilities that can be tapped... Continue Reading →
Ever Notice…
how you always eat more when you're on a holiday? Carbs and protein are attacked with the gusto of being long-lost sibs. And once you're back home, you can't wait to be rid of them...like an inconvenient zit or a house guest who's overstayed their welcome? How you can sleep longer on the days you... Continue Reading →
Peas, Worms&Reruns
I'm stuck with buying frozen peas when my batch of fresh ones run out. I try to buy a few kilos at a time and then chuck them in the refrigerator for as long as they'll keep and go back to the supermarket for the frozen stuff once I run out. Yesterday while I was... Continue Reading →
New Year Rung In!
I woke up today in soft flannel pjs and alone in my bed. And it was bliss!! Red and MLM had crashed in another room because they weren't feeling the fun flowing out of the eardrum-bursting music and seizure-inducing lights from the party in our community. I however have lower standards and wanted to experience... Continue Reading →
Priorities
We have a Gopro mini camera. The offspring loves it because he can take it underwater. I love it because it helps me not lug the entire camera gear I tend to normally take. For a totally amateur photog I have quite a bit of gear; which we discover only while packing. We're vacationing in... Continue Reading →
Trivandrum Mornings…
Here for a spell. My kid wants to see crocodiles. Look into reptile retail so we can buy one and take it back home. In the meanwhile he had his first lobster...literally willing it to come flying out the kitchen doors. And then later wanted me to turn the crustacean over so he could see... Continue Reading →
In The Dance Of Life…
I often suffer from tip-of-the-tongue phenomenon. My husband would disagree entirely given how often he gets a pained look on his face when I keep gabbing away or how quickly he reminds me that it's really late and I should be FAST ASLEEP already! There are occasions when a particular concept floats into my head... Continue Reading →
Loose Lips…
Yesterday while running an errand I got blocked into a narrow lane by an imbecilic cabbie who had parked bang in the middle of the road with no thought for anyone else. Apparently when you have to take a whizz everything comes a poor second. So there I was, getting more annoyed by the minute... Continue Reading →
Kids: Boon Vs Bane
The jury is still out on that one. On one hand you can remember them as the cutest, cuddliest, chubbiest drooly monsters that walked around with a diaper-covered bum. And on the other hand you wish you could sedate them or keep them in suspended animation when they're getting their best and most annoying bratty... Continue Reading →
