My sunday..
Tried waking up at 9.30am. Well, T has been trying this herculean task of waking me up since 7, and I finally budged at 9.30. Poor B had to entertain her first thing on a sunday morning. I had the privilege of sleeping, since I kinda complained of stomach cramps!
It was 14th Jan. A sunday. Pongal day. Actually Pongal this year fell on a monday, but since I couldn't take off from work, decided to make a complete south indian tam bram 'saapaadu' on sunday. Started my day with a nice hot cuppa filter coffee. Attempted making ven pongal, medhu vadai, sambar and tengaai chutney. It was ok. After a seriously long time, I had made this for breakfast. My cook I guess now has confirmed that her post will not be dissolved. I will have her in my home forever! Invited my neighbour as well for breakfast. Actually brunch. Finished this with another nice cuppa filter coffee.
Got T to bed again at 1.00. B and I slept again, cuddled, cosying in our new duvet. Slept till 3. T woke us up again. B decided to give her a massage, and a nice hot water shower, while I decided to watch "FRIENDS" back to back. Sipped some home made tomato cream soup. Cook arrived again, this time with sweet puris for T. B & I were in no mood for lunch. We had eaten too much in the morning. After a nice long shower, gave T those sweet puris. Oh! how much she loves 'em. B then took her to the park, where she gets to dirty herself! Why did he even bother to give her a massage and a bath? I wonder. Anyway, didn't want to start an argument, so kept quiet.
Then at 6.30pm decided to go to Landmark. Oh how we Chennaiites love this bookstore! Yeah yeah Teksons and Om bookstores are fine, but nothing like Landmark. Browsed around for a good 2 hours. Finally bought an obscene amount of books, that would last me 4 months atleast! Felt great. Well..B was paying for it, so didn't complain! By this time, we felt hungry. Skipped lunch, remember??? Went to a restaurant called Orchid at the Fortune Select Global. Quite relaxed. Had a buffet dinner. Gorged on those desserts. Spent 2 hours or so there as well, while T made friends with the band and the waiters.
Came back home. Got T to bed. Stepped out to the balcony. Soaked in the chill. Read a little. Slept. B as usual slept with the reading light on...

A new year, a new resolution
This year, as always, I have made up my mind. A new resolution on New year's day. This year I resolve to love my body. This year I resolve to complete all the books that are stacked up in my little library, even if I have shunned them in the past. This year I resolve to swim everyday wearing a 2-piece bikini. This year I resolve to learn 2 foreign languages. This year I resolve to cook everyday for my family in the kitchen. This year I will not drink and drive. This year I will not bother about the blemishes on my skin.
Resolution?? Err..no smoking, no drinking, no this and no that. And how long did it last? 1 day perhaps!
Why even bother?!
