The era of Bingeing

Pantry Shelves
....As I get into Binge – organizing, I meet my little friends from yester months, (hopefully not years), lurking in the dark neglected corners of the cupboards, I had forgotten that they even existed. Little packs of pancake mix, wild rice, flax seeds, apricots and miscellaneous stuff of that sort.

Tear Jerkers and Bak Kut Teh

It all started with this emotional Thai commercial a few months ago. Then, out of nowhere it re-appeared and I have a new hobby now, watching short films on Youtube. Well! You can overdo that too,  but the Thai commercials have a way of wrenching emotions out of you.

Blogs and Babies!

"So how is your son doing, are you missing him?", this is a normal question I get asked and I reply, " Yes I do!.. but.... I have two blogs!" I can tell they are not impressed.

Odds and Ends and The Music Dwellers



Just so happened today was one of "those" days...I broke a cup and a bowl while hastily trying to clean up the kitchen before the arrival of our cleaning lady. I had to get my sewing machine fixed so that I could do free motion quilting. 

What! No Gold Socks??? But there is Pasta


I was absorbed in making tomato sauce, chopping veggies for grilling.
It happens to be that time of the year, when veggies and fruits are local, fresh and plentiful. I dutifully buy loads of fresh carrots, beets, potatoes, tomatoes, beans, zucchini and spinach from the farmer's market every week.
