Love is in the air

 A perfect setting!

A radiant Sun,

A velvety bed,

A splash of fragrance,

Honey and I

Make honey.

Made In China  Sounds familiar ? Ought to be!  As a mother of 2yr old twins, am compelled by my own conscience to buy new toys every other month.So whats there in it ? Every parent of this new age does it.Its not about buying toys that concerns me,but the origin of it. I see that almost 95% of the toys, carry a "Made In China" tag. Be it a small car,soft toy or my computer mouse/keyboard, every 2nd item in my house is China made.Gifts from my relatives abroad, is mostly China/Taiwan/Japan made. Ain't it strange? This made me do some research work on Indian -Chinese Import-Exports.Google is our handy manny :-) (Handy Manny is a cartoon on Disney Channel). Google search on "Made in China" showed me so many websites with an entire range of their products. You could set up a new home, a toy store, electronic goodies and what not.I was even tempted to start a small business.On the reverse, "Made In India" search fetched me the famous pop song by Alisha C...

A tribute to my Pattis

I enjoyed the privilege of living with 2 pattis (my mom's mom and my dad's mom) until recently. Last year Chellama patti (Dad's mom) passed away and Vedavalli( Mom's mom) a few years before.It would be unfair, if I  forget to mention my munadi aathu patti(Janakammal -my front house patti ,who lived in Ambattur).Each of them were strikingly different in their own ways,yet bringing up their family was the first intention for all. Chellama patti  hailed from a wealthy,big(13 siblings)  and orthodox family.She had lost her husband at an young age. Raising 7 kids without any help is an arduous task( time doesn't matter),be it 5 decades ago or at present.N.K.R Mama(Chellamal's elder brother), was the backbone of the entire family.Until today, the amount of respect that my parents, uncles and aunt show towards him is really exemplary. Chellamal's love for her Anna(N.K.R) is remarkable as she breathed her last in his place. Chellama patti was an voracious r...

Greedy Life in the Misty Mountains

Happy Holidays!  I wish my students and  co-teachers. A welcome break to mend my sore and squeaky throats. Time for a noisy get-to-gether (BTW ,my family is a noisy one!), a get- away from the scotching heat adds spice to the vacation.This time, Ranga, our tour operator finalizes upon Shillong and it's nearby places. 27th April 2019 Morning rush to work is a routine.But to the airport ?? "Yes" , today is no different. The phone rings  at 3.07 am. Its Aravind - " Hey, we are leaving for the airport.Where are you ? " and hangs the phone. Omg ! That's when we realize we overslept  and the missed the alarm(which was apparently set for 2 am the next day) , by the tour operator.Our adventure begins here. We dash into the bathroom, then grab the luggage  and sprint to cab with the shoes in hand within 10mins. Phew!! Our adrenaline returns back to normal. Chennai Airport welcomes us with excited chatter-boxes, groggy faces , first-time flyers, bubbly...
