Yeah..This Day That Year…7 years back on this day, I was waiting for my life to take a drastic turn, waiting for the baby to arrive in this world, for a moment when I will actually hold my baby, marking an end of the Nine months wait of hope and despair, fear and excitement.
When finally the moment arrived, I was barely able to hear his voice and then my senses gave up due to Anesthesia induced Black- out- of- brain. It took me more than 12 hours to come back to my senses and hold that most precious part of my world in my arms.. Continue reading “This Day That Year”

Back from my so called hiatus…. I know how boring it gets for you all, to hear excuses from me about my frequent disappearing acts.Won’t drag this too long, but will surely say… Life gets busy, so much that there comes a time when we are bound to concentrate more on our responsibilities than ourselves.

Oops it already started melting…..
To begin with, it’s my Better Half’s Birthday today , So Happy Birthday Dear Hubby (Even though you dislike publicly displaying affection and all those mushy sentiments..still….).
Then comes the rantings (Ahh that’s my favorite part of blogging..lol). It is a long Weekend here in India and me and kiddie were really looking forward to celebrate this day, since from past many months we hardly had got some FAMILY TIME to relax and enjoy just being together, chilling out with our kid, having fun roaming around, going on vacation…the desires are innumerable, the wishes, unending.

Starting with a Thank you , to all who cared to respond my post through comments and Emails , and all those who tried to help me decide a picture for Click event, I am glad to send the one that got most of the votes..The first picture from my previous post .

This is a Recipe which remained in Drafts for the longest period, the reason being that store brought Gulabjamuns are so convenient to find here and also , these do not cost a bomb. Moreover I find making sweets too unnecessary , since we hardly eat sweet stuff and those in family who love sweets are “barred” from even looking at these, leave aside eating , obviously due to health reasons.

Days turned into weeks, and weeks turned into months. I never knew I could stay away from blogging this long. After I bid Goodbye to Blogging in June, I thought things will go on smoothly and I will resume blogging in no matter of time.But I was wrong !
Shifting to a new Home is no mean task, and it did take away all my time and energy , so much that I was neither cooking anything great nor clicking anything to show off. I almost gave up the hope of turning to Blogging again, since I neither had any enthusiasm to cook something different nor the patience to dust off the camera for the photo shoot.
