Aug 21st 2022, Sunday
Went to church for the 11:30 am mass, it was okay.
Then went to café Utopia
A cute place with a green bench outside... where we sat and had coffee.
Café is quite small, we didn't have place to sit inside. 
Charming cafe...
My brother had the espresso. I ordered the carrot cake and a chocolate cake, then we went to Plainpalais to have lunch.
I had this famous Pilipino drink, halo halo, made with crushed milk, ice, jelly cubes, fruit pulp, yam puree, coconut slices and many other things. It was good, kinda like a milkshake with a lot of things in it, similar to our jigarthanda.  

I took this veg glass noodles from the same stall, and it was pretty good...
Mom and Vinod ate pork belly...
Vinod had this squid salad too. Dad ate spring rools, and Nam ordered falafels and an aubergine and cheese roll.
Here's the carrot cake from café Utopia... it was good.

Vinod dropped and picked up mom and dad from Christ the King church.
I made breakfast for Vinod, then made kadai chicken masala for lunch. 
After lunch, me and Nam went to Old town just to look around and shop...
My ten year old banana republic dress with a crop top... outfit of the day.
Found the frozen yogurt place that I was searching for... ate a small one with pistachio sauce and walnuts, it was good enough.
Old town spout... we just looked around and bought some cute bowls that were on sale.
I saw these girls sitting on the site of some huge building and just having a good time... a nice spot to just hang out. Then went home and spent the evening reading Girls from Ames.

Made vegetable rice and aloo mattar curry. Evening went to Migros outlet, to buy chocolates, bought some chocolate covered nuts and it was nice. Then we went to church of Epiphany, met Fr. Gabriel there, it was a nice surprise. 
This nice statue was outside a mall, a woman resting. Mia called in the evening, always good talking to her... she's always bubbling with stories. Then came home and packed for our trip to Rome, the next day.

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....

Amethyst in Chennai - A Review

By
After Sarangi , we stopped by Amethyst another boutique store at Whites Road (quite close to Express Avenue Mall), Royapettah. This is a cool posh place hidden from the bustling din of the main road, and the entry way itself seems to transport you to another time and place far away from the cacophony of a busy city life. Once you step into this land overflowing with (wild) shrubbery, you'll find a flower shop, a jewellery cum clothing store and a colonial styled coffee hangout place. The entrance... with shrubs on either side. A giant urn among the shrubbery.  A little fountain in the garden... The jewellery and clothing boutique is located upstairs and even though the whole arrangement looks nice and inviting, I couldn't really find anything worth buying here.   An art piece at the store... The clothes seemed drab and messily complicated, like some new age fashion for the artsy / socialite types. It's not something your normal next door perso...

I hope the world doesn't end in 2012, I have a whole lot of books to read...

By
I heard bout Flipkart.com from Anju and that site has changed my life. All the books that I have been searching for since centuries, are now sitting prettily on my book shelf. Landmark is a thing of the past now... in fact Landmark is not what it used to be anymore, they do not seem to have stock on most of the good books. So I am deliriously thankful to the creators of flipkart, I seriously love you guys... continue with your fabulous work. Talking of books, here are a few people who have enriched my life with their recommendations of the written word... My brother Manoj for buying the ' The Partner ' by John Grisham . Now I hadn't heard of Grisham before so the book was just lying there at home. One day I got bored and picked it up, that was the start of my love affair with Grisham and legal thrillers in general. This was the first John Grisham book I read and it was in a word mindblowing. I couldn't set the book down, my heart was racing away with Patrick Laniga...
