A giant refreshment called Aparna

Fresh, zestful, lively, sharp, poignant, peppery, spirited, stimulating......
The list can go on endlessly..
These are just a few words I have used in describing a giant refreshment called Aparna!!
Wondering if you have ever had an exotic drink of this kind!!!
No way!!!
Its a seasonal refreshment and gulped in gallons only by its patents!! (Parents?)and occasionally by those whose organic structure is a close match to it!! Most refreshing in the months of April and May but available for a short span in the winter for the patents alone!!
A tester dose of what the summer holds!!
I have just had a taste of it (being a patent) and enjoyed it for almost a fortnight!!
It has only left me with a longing for more and more!!
But its gonna be one long wait till I get to taste it in its best form!!
Thats my daughter in the hostel!!

The Regressive attitude!

I was enjoying speeding in my Alto oblivious to everything else other than the exhilarating feeling of watching the road ahead and the beautiful site of the winding roads hugging sometimes paddy fields and sometimes Mango groves! All of a sudden I noticed a car from behind trying to overtake my vehicle and for a while I intended to keep up my speed but then better sense prevailed over me. I moved to a side to give way to the other vehicle! As soon as the car occupants had overtaken me, I saw them giving Hifi to one another followed by a quick triumphant glance– very excited that they had overtaken me! My first reaction was – how idiotic!! During one of those chatty sessions with my colleagues the kind who dole out advices whether you want it or not! My colleague told me that I should stop commuting by my car as it was risky driving such a long distance everyday! He gave me two solutions – to commute by the transportation provided by the organization or to have a driver to drive my car...

The Earthen Pot

I went to a Flea Market a bit unwillingly but then when nephews call to spend time with you, you hardly have a choice. I was supposed to meet them a little early for a Sunday morning but I reached in time. I called one of my nephews only to realize he hadn’t even started from home. He suggested that I go in and look around. I hesitated to take up his suggestion but the greed for materialistic possessions took over good sense and there I was just picking up whatever took my fansy! I infact had no cash with me and so installed PAYTM and paid! Nothing seemed to be a hindrance or a challenge! One prized possession amidst all the junk was a beautiful earthen pot and it had a nice glazed finish to it! I was informed that I could place it on a gas stove too for cooking! I picked it up thinking I had got it at a throw away price! The next morning as I placed it on the stove to make sambhar, I dreamt of the smell of sambhar in the purest and unsullied form wafting through my house! I was ru...
