One Life to Love

There’s a superb show in NDTV Good Times that I follow which is “ONE LIFE TO LOVE”.And undoubtly it’s a show to watch out for. Hosted by noted writer and editor Simran Bhargava, the underlying philosophy behind the show is: ‘If you’re alive, you may as well be happy.’

What I like about this programme is it deals with issues which we face in our daily lives in such an uncomplicated manner. My favourite guest is Deepak Chopra.Aha! What an amazing person he is.

The simple things of life which most of the times I had forgotten, simple happiness which I had forgot to grasp. Leading a simple and hassel-free life is what I discovered all over again after watching this show.

And indeed we have only one life to love..what say!!!!

My Love for Cooking !

I am a foodie and like to try different cusines. Back home in Assam, my mother tried her best to make me learn the art of cooking. But I was a tomboy. For me entering in a kitchen meant only to grab something and feed my hungry stomach.

It’s when I came to Hyderabad that I realized the importance of home-cooked food. May be when you are away from home it teaches you lot of things and one important thing is “ghar ka khana” which one can make only at home..

Six years ago, I started with ready to mixes available in the market and later on switched to making simple recepies at home.Initialy when I started cooking it was like saving money in the week days as in the weekends I used to eat out. Gradually after attending few food festivals, I learnt that cooking is indeed an art and there is so much that one can learn.

Over the period of time my passion for cooking has become such that I never miss watching cooking shows of TLC, NDTV good times, Khana Khazana etc etc.It’s a delight watching these shows as they use simple ingredients and make a mouthwatering dish.

I still have a long way to go as there are different methods of cooking which I have to master. And who knows I can make it to the Master chef India next year….

My Morning Walk!!

After a long hiatus from my workouts, I am back to start my fitness regime. This time I have started with morning walk.

And indeed nothing like getting up early in the morning. It’s like being with nature as she is at her best in the crack of dawn and more than walking what I like is the tranquility around me.

It’s so refreshing with greenery around and still fresh shadows. With the untouched cool breeze, and the dew like soft grass, It feels as if the birds are singing merrily.

Must say that there’s a real magic in the early morning hours….

Rainy Season

Every Year, I eagerly wait for the rains ,as this is the season, where the environment is lush green. When the rain drops touches the ground, it naturally feels like, life is back.. I love the evenings of rainy season when there are different beautiful designs of clouds appear in the sky in different colours. And the little wet and sweet breeze (and something yummie to eat). ........

The rainy season brings back the memories and the fun days which I spent with my brothers and friends in Assam. We used to enjoy getting drenched in the pitter patter raindrops, jump in a puddle, and tried to brave the rains with our umbrellas and dance with joy. While coming back from school with our raincoats on, we used to splash in the pools of water. It was a joy to make tiny paper boats and see them sailing on the clogged water….

And now when I look out from my window sipping hot tea with pakoras.It is a delight to see the rain drops faling from leaves, the sweet fragrance of the earth and not to forget the cold but unsullied breeze coming by………
