I just completed a month of living in my rented . Umm nice…
It is a 1 BHK apartment, on the second floor with a nice balcony facing a lot of trees and is snuggled in reasonable amount of quietness (given the noisy, concrete jungles that our cities have become). There are so many pet dogs around; it made me wonder if there are more pets than humans around me!!!!!
Oh breaking news!! I have started cooking and believe me it’s an amazing feeling. Having eaten out for close to 8 years, I surely relish the taste of simple home cooked food. It also made me understand and realize at first-hand the tough and demanding life, women live in the kitchens. Look back at all the early morning running around our moms did to get us up and running to school (literally) …it all came back to me and made me feel so grateful for all those years of unconditional love.
Well coming back to my cooking - it started with breakfast stuff, milk and corn flakes, toast and stuff to poha (Indian breakfast dish). The last week saw an upswing in this department; to more full fledged lunch & dinner. The rasam and sambhar (south Indian dishes) got done and I even carried home cooked lunch to work. And like I said earlier, it just felt great!! The fact that you are self-reliant and its very much in your hands what and how much you want to eat. This is one YUMMY feeling I tell ya.
One of the best times I have had in this apartment is the piping hot cuppa coffee I have sitting in my balcony in the morning. Its one helluva feeling. Birds chirping, otherwise quiet green surroundings, the morning breeze and the strong taste of Nescafe.
So here is to my home, its coziness, my new found culinary skills and happy living out here!! Cheers!!! :):):)
