Kids are aliens dressed as little-humans - III

Watch the video at your own risk. Make sure your speaker volumes are low. Check the volume once before you press the play button. Incline your head to the left and now if you are really sure you want to waste one minute of your precious life watching two midgets screech please go ahead by all means :)



This video was taken sometime in September 2008. It was on our journey to Delhi
Duration :40 hours! Yup. These kids would sleep for 15 minutes and would start screeching continuously for 3 hours (Not exaggerating). It was as if they were programed to do that or may be it was just a routine. God knows. It was definitely not the nicest journey i have been on and yes, i did threaten to throw the kids out of the train. But again i did not carry out my "Master Plan".

The whole situation was akin to me suffering from Stockholm Syndrome. It was a hostage situation of sorts given that there was NO escaping these kids. :)

Nope not funny. Far from funny. At one station i actually picked up the kid and got off the train and let him down on the platform and told him that the train will leave without him BUT if he promises to keep quite i'd help him get in. Little laddie said "Kasam se". To be on the safer side i also told him that the train will be stopping at more stations and if he breaks his promise i could always put him back on the platform, and that stupid kid gave me the i will not break my promise look so i put him on the steps. Do you REALLY want to know what happened next?

The Oceanic Velvet Cake with a Mother of Pearl Frosting©

Image
My favourite cake is the Red Velvet cake. I like the colour, the texture, the salty-sweet-cream cheese frosting and that mild zing of flavours which alternate between cocoa, vanilla and citrusy. I am not a food blogger. I just have started blogging about food because the pandemic has invariably brought out the chef in me and I have started experimenting on a scale I would not otherwise have. I am usually satisfied with a small cake. It takes less time and less effort… that’s what I thought. Until I decided to make a layered cake. Same time and same amount of effort. After I was done, I realised that baking actually isn’t rocket science. It does take some patience, understanding of how ingredients combine and a bit of artistry to make it pretty. I compensate for my lack of artistry with imagination and creativity. I had set out to bake me a Red Velvet cake. The moment I realised that my birthday will also be during the lockdown I knew I’d have to go about fixing this wi

Google Pixel XL - Review

Image
I had been meaning to change my phone for over a year and it was then that this phone had caught my eye – The Google Pixel XL. I had read so much about it. Found that a lot of people that I am surrounded by had no intentions of getting it. Here is the thing, my sole reason for investing in a gadget has to do with the following: ·         Its price should be within a certain range i.e it should not burn a hole in my wallet. ·         It should at least be guaranteed that the product will be receiving software support for a minimum of 3 years. ·         It should have excellent user interface to make life easy and be a tool for communication as well as relaxation. ·         It should have a good camera. ·         Its accessories must be easily available in the market. It’s with the help of this list that I short listed my “This the phone I’d like to own” list ·         Google Pixel XL (128GB) – INR 56,229 ·         One Plus 5T (128 GB) – INR 37,795 ·         Moto Z2 Play (64GB)   - INR 2

Desitude

The feeling is fleeting and yet for the mere seconds that the thought lasts you realize that you are watching the evolution of a generation that claims to be less corrupt and one that is equipped to take on the world. At the same time you notice that this so called generation has a thick pseudo american accent, ideas are plenty but do they apply to us [Indians] and whether this flash of insight was just a piece read in the news paper? Seriously after having moved to Bangalore I have started noticing things that weren’t so evident in Mysore . Things like a person’s attitude towards people – In case you are dressed up like a westerner you evidently have brains. [because you need to have brains to have a very well coordinated psychedelic wardrobe.] Any one clad in salwar kameez or anything remotely Indian is “ Oh! so still living in the dark ages!” . Anyone who speaks English is smart. Anyone who speaks Hindi is a gawar. Anyone who paints her nails black, bottle
