Kids, food and books....

Well, finally done with the exams... its been a few fun weeks with Jacques Derrida, Edmund Husserl, Wordsworth, Mathew Arnold, and the rest of the guys.  Came to know about  phonemes, allophones, consonant clusters and what not.
Anyway, went to school the past fewdays to hangout with the kids... and when I am there, there's no where else I'd rather be.
                  

                                                    
Other than spending time in school, been spending some time in the kitchen too, tryin out a few dishes. Made Stuffed Roast Chicken and it came out really well...

                                                            

Grandma wanted to make some sweet appam, so helped her with that too.

                                                         

Received the new Potter book today and Harry Potter looks so much better as a fictional character than he does in the real life version. She (Rowling) does weave a good story.... though, it's a drag at some places.

Glad to know your exams are over.

"Stuffed Roast Chicken"
Did you intend to make it a roast, or did it just turn out that way? :P

"it came out really well"
How did the people who ate it came out?

OK, I am stopping with two jokes.. you can't blame me. If you talk about your cooling, how can I stop making fun of you!

hey quiana, sweet appam otherwise called leaf appam is made using Jaggery. The white coating is made with Maida and the stuffing is made of Jaggery, Banana and Aval (flattened rice)along with a few cardamom pods.

Hey Mazhalai, my food might look good, but yours always looks great. I still remember some upside down cake you made.

Hey Saj, I kinda knew you would ask this question. Its the same question my brother asked. Anyway stuffed it with a mixture of Cashew nuts, dried grapes, bread pieces, onions, potato, carrot, beans, capsicum and cheese.

Oh anju, I can't watch the potter movies, the book is bad enough. I only continue reading them cause I started the series... and I do want to know why everhbody is nuts over it. And I do have that song by emerson drive.

Hey Sandhya, now that I finished reading the 7th book, I gotta say, I dislike it even more. It was a good read yes, but not a good book. It was just too much of everything... kinda like the Sivaji movie and Spiderman 3.


TDNA, I hope one of those Amway guys corner you soon.

Mommyof2, hope your kids gudiya and A are doing well. My break is over now, but it was great fun, being home again...

Nice Ad....

Wouldn't you say so... Nam and me were in this huge clothing store and we were making fun of all the models on display (there was one of hrithik in which he looked kinda gayish) when we came across this one. Seriously, dark people are more better looking....

A tribute to the crazy bunch....

Here are a few picutres that won't find a place in the wedding album... but they were equally (some of them, even more) memorable. Everybody loves sunoj.... I was so happy to see them all...... (first time they were coming to my new place) Sunoj again.... hanging out with this guy is like shopping, ice cream, chocolates... etc. You can't get enough of them. The crazy cousins gave us a very interesting gift... this gift will be with us for six months then it will start its cycle of educating the owners. Though I doubt my cousins need much education in that department. It was fun opening the book and Jardin being the smart guy wanted somethin read from page 69. It was so cute the way Sunoj quickly picked up "The Magic Faraway Tree Series" from the corner and gave me to hold up when Robert uncle walked into the room (turns out he was the one who bought the book). I still remember Robert uncle laughing his head off.... good times. This wa

My school teachers...

So I got to thinking bout my school days recently and it saddened me that I was starting to forget a few teachers who had shaped my life, I have already forgotten nearly half the classmates... though its not my fault. Some people just don't want to join facebook, then how can you find them in this big world. Even if I do find them, there is not much to talk beyond the 'where are you & what are you doing' phrases. But the teachers are another matter, they deserve to be remembered for moulding us. I gotta hand it to the convent school I studied in, they really knew how to select their educators... all the teachers I had shared a genuine passion for teaching and above that they had strong moral values and faith which invariably shaped our lives. To them being a good person was what mattered the most and they made sure we grasped this knowledge, it also helped that I had staunch catholic parents who cemented this view. Anyway, I just wanted to jot down stuff bout my teacher
