How did we become the #bookparents
Never in my wildest dreams, I have thought one day I would write a blog post on books! The 18 months old toddler at home has read more books than me and my husband has read in our whole lives, so far. So, I thought of writing a few words on how it all began and how are we keeping at it. The first set … Continue reading How did we become the #bookparents
Sathumaavu Biscuits
When I searched YouTube for the recipe of Sathumaavu Biscuits, the first link to pop up was from a channel named “Adhium Naanum“. The minute the video began, there was a smile on my face because the host spoke Kongu Tamizh! Stanley used to make fun of me that my face would brighten up by a 100 watts if someone said they were from Coimbatore/Tirupur/Erode/Pollachi … Continue reading Sathumaavu Biscuits
It’s been 5 years in Kuwait
Kuwait is not Saudi Arabia nor Dubai. Kuwait is a separate country in the Middle East. It’s not fast and trending as Dubai but also it is not mandatory for all women to wear a burqa/hijab like they do in Saudi. Making this clear because that is what I am most asked about. Yeah we have the highly valued currency in the world and all … Continue reading It’s been 5 years in Kuwait

Peanut Ladoo

Having left the fully loaded pantry with the husband has resulted in many unopened packets of groceries. Had to finish them at the earliest before they reach the expiry date and become inedible. This peanut … Continue reading Peanut Ladoo

DIY – Painted Canvas & Storage box
Craft has always been part of my pastime since my childhood. I used to create greeting cards using chart papers, newspapers and pictures from magazines. Hand embroidery was taught in-house as my grandma used to do extensively. Somehow in the work-life marathon I couldn’t do much after I moved to Kuwait. Got a perfect time-off when it rained heavily and the country was shutdown in … Continue reading DIY – Painted Canvas & Storage box
