Perfect Sunday - bake a cake and homemade ice-cream

-
 Hello All, It was so much fun yesterday. I think best time spend with my little one and husband. I was planning to bake a cake for a very long time in the microwave. But for the fast years, I had not gone through the recipe and was just postponing it as I was too busy with my daily work. But then, yesterday, husband darling got into the mood of making ice - cream for my daughter. I was just giving them the beater and teaching them how to use it. Then, looking at my daughter's face, I thought - "well! its getting postponed from quite a few years. let me try it out again." When I told her, "Guess What!!! Mummy is going to bake a cake for all of us especially for you." Her face just lit up. That moment I wouldn't be able to describe in words. It was finally the moment arrived. I made a simple sponge cake which all of us relished. It was just yummmm. A quiet evening but an eventful. The joy of baking which had vanished somewhere, came back to me after many  man...

Strong willpower, determination and belief in ourselves is what we require.

Hey everyone,

I am glad to be back after almost two weeks now. These weeks I was a bit busy with my personal life and therefore was unable to concentrate on my blog. Anyway, now I am free and ready to blog. My husband is a food lover and I love cooking for him delicious recipes. I explore and experiment with my food and trust me sometimes everything goes haywire. But most of the times it comes out flavorful and mouth -watering. I would say ‘Yum’. That is what my dear husband says to me. Mind you, even if it is not so appetizing, my husband eats without any complaints. I love him for that. My weakness for food and fondness for blogging inclined me towards watching a movie which I just loved watching and now I have added it to my favorite list.

The film that I was talking about Julie and Julia - is a 2009 release starring Meryl Streep and Amy Jackson in the lead roles. Both ladies come from different generations, but their lives are intertwined by their passion for cooking. Julie is a working professional but starts blogging about her passion for cooking by emulating Julia Child’s Recipes. The movie switches back and forth but we feel so connected to the feelings of both the women’s dreams, desires, and accomplishments. Their husbands play a great role in their achievements. In fact, I would say that my husband played a pivotal role by encouraging me to start a blog. So, I would say I had a considerable connection of sorts.

The film was very enjoyable and there are some noteworthy takeaways from the film. The movie shows that if a person has a strong will and determination, one can accomplish anything. One should not desire for the fruit but always move ahead with their work with single mindedness. In the film, Julie takes up the challenge of cooking 524 recipes in 365 days and blog about it while Julia learns French cooking, gives an exam and finally along with her friends co - authors a cookbook. Both face with challenging situations in their lives but they do not give up. That is the gist what I took from the movie. This desire to just go on with our work not thinking or worrying too much about the outcome is important.

So, my dear friends, with this I would like to say goodbye to all of you. Do not forget to add any comments on my blog and you can follow me.

Bye

Namitha

What is the reason that BJP couldn't touch the magic number of 272?

-
The elections concluded with much grandeur and the results were awaited with baited breath by all. The toppers looked upon it as achieving All India Rank with record numbers while others saw it as  an opportunity to gain lost ground. It was a very well fought election from the both sides. The voters were offered different kinds of promises. Five years ago it was the slogan of 'Ayega toh Modi hi' which everyone knew that it was the writing on the wall any which ways. But this time around the BJP went a little overboard with its slogan ' Abki baar 400 Paar'. This slogan echoed the confidence of the party but somewhere it bought some kind of apprehension among the voters which the opposition was trying to instill.  The media diverted its attention towards the numbers but the opposition saw this as an opportunity to create anxiety among the voters that this kind of power will put democracy in danger. The carrying of the constitution everywhere and putting it in display and ...

How to be different or unique from others

  How to be different from others 1. Make decisions on your own and stick to them. Listen to the discussions going on around you. Be a good listener but go ahead with what you feel is right and make your own decision. Do not depend on others for the choices you make and be proud and hold yourself responsible for whatever choices you make. 2. Be honest to yourself. Never lie to yourself. Do not try to emulate others. Just be yourself and be proud of who you are. One should be honest not just to others but also to oneself as you yourself are answerable to your conscious  at the end of the day. 3. Accept your flaws. Not everyone is perfect. We are all humans, not superhumans or God. We must admit to ourselves the flaws that we have and try to work on improving ourselves. Don't try to act as a perfect person as it leads to being dishonest and displaying your artificial self out there in the society and to yourself. 4. Respect Yourself. Learn to adore and respect yourself. God has ...

Do the Exit polls 2024 show that there was a wave in favor of Narendra Modi???

-
The elections in India are held like a festival. Every place from hotels to parks to small shops, every person talks about politics. Let it be if not who is coming to power but at least you will get some idea during a conversation that who will be shown the door by the people of this country. This time in most of the news channels, the anchors and a few analysts spoke about the chances the opposition might be having as there is an anti incumbency mood among the people of the country. Some people even said that people are bored with the face of Modi. They are looking for a change. People must have got what they had wanted. Now they are looking for a change. There is no wave like it was visible in 2014 or any sort of Nationalistic wave like it was after Pulwama in 2019. The Ram Mandir wave is not much except in a few places.  This was the general feeling. Even I had the same impression. But the day I went to vote, I saw a long line in my booth where normally that is not the scene and...
