Day 34 of Lockdown

Let's just say I had too much on my list and this major task was to go stand in line in front of the supermarket, maintaining social distance, waiting for my turn to get in and grab my necessities and get out. That took three times more time than usual. So, I am entitled to …

Day 33 of Lockdown

It was a productive Sunday. I finished two long pending personal tasks. One is to plot for a novelette and another to write a short story. I did both workout sessions today. It was necessary after eating so much of garlic butter prawn curry yesterday.   As I had mentioned in yesterday's blog, I had …

Day 31 of Lockdown

The day was okay. Like really okay. I didn't give a damn about anything. Two workout sessions.   Today I prepared Seeme Badanekai (Chow Chow) Fry. It was lip-smacking delicious. Left me wondering why I had not prepared this all these years of my life! I mean, I had eaten it as sambar or palya, …

Day 29 of Lockdown

It was a day that I expected to go bad but turned out to be good! I think even my own bad vibes don't affect me. Well, something to hope for! Two workout sessions done.   I prepared Ennegai to go with rotis, but I also prepared Sabudana Chiwda to munch on something in the …

Day 26, 27 and 28 of Lockdown

Day 23 of Lockdown

I am doing good today, and that is enough for me for now. Two workout sessions. Check.   Today, baby corn fry for breakfast and ragi ambli (malt) for lunch. Preparing muddhe led to a lot of wastage of ragi. So, ambli it is! Recipes are at the end of this post.   I didn't …

Day 22 of Lockdown

Day 20 and 21 of Lockdown

My sincere apologies for not posting yesterday. I started having anxiety attacks and I just needed to calm down and not do anything else. I feel a bit better today, though I am on the verge of getting them again. Writing this blog helps me keep calm and so I am back to you with …
