I came across a super easy recipe and tried it a little while ago and loved it! I’m not a bit fan of sweet potatoes and just found a way to like it.:) Here we go: Get a few sweet potatoes, peel them and cut them into chunky pieces or thin strips. Put them on a baking tray and ihinnafy ...
When we lose someone we dearly love, life completely changes. When our dad was force-ably taken away from us, we had a bit of a tough time adjusting. We lived as if life was normal and that it just had to go on…But deep down, there was a huge world with a massive emotional hole in it which people could ...
My ambition has changed many times during my childhood years…. I never wanted to be a doctor or an engineer….. I loved reading and would read books while travelling in the car, on the way to school, before sleeping or when I was home doing nothing. So I always wanted to be an author.. Then, it took a completely different ...
I LOVE Nestum for breakfast or whenever I get a little hunger pang. So once when my mum was at the check out counter in the supermarket, the girl who was billing saw the Nestum pack and had asked mum how old her little one was. She had laughed and said something to the effect of ‘if only you knew ...
Once upon a time, about an year ago really, my mum had come across a proposal for me. Since I show absolutely no interest in that department she took her time with it. Nowadays photographs are not exchanged. Instead they ask how your name is on FB to do their search! So this one mother whose son was in UK ...

That impatient moment when you are all dolled up for a wedding like event in a long beautiful maxi dress bought by mum and once you are at the venue you must run to the super clean washrooms to take a selfie… And both times I went there were other women so couldn’t take one today….. and it’s driving me ...
Your mind…..can be your worst enemy….or your best friend.. Sometimes controlling it is tough. I wish I had a more firmer grip on the control button. Just sometimes.
The tile refers to the literal cleaning of the closet. After much thinking and procrastination, I finally had nothing to do in the afternoon, couldn’t sleep either…so finally got down to cleaning the wardrobe, My heavens, the clothes I have! I managed to put aside a massive pile of clothes which were later divided into those that need to be ...
Many many years ago, just after I sat for my A/Ls, we went on a family trip to Nepal and Tibet. On our way to Nepal, we had to go through a few hours of transit at the Bangkok airport. While walking in the Dutyfree with dad to kill time, I saw a gold ring which I fell in love ...
When I was working out at the gym on Friday I heard this catchy song on radio and did not know what it was. When I asked the flirty gym instructor what station they were tuned into, he did not know. Then I heard it in office this morning and immediately asked a colleague what it was and found out ...
Our old Samsung fridge was a little over 10 yrs and was giving a bit of trouble where it would suddenly not cool at all. So after trying to fix it so many times, and me not being able to make any desserts, I decided to take the maternal force on a fridge hunt. It wasn’t easy as when I ...
So there are a few parts that I missed out in the last post. And here they are… The photo shoot got delayed as the groom, in a hurry, had brought his dad’s pants and not his. So he had to wait till his dad brought the correct pair of pants for him to get into! :) Then, before the ...
In life we deal with many kinds of pain … I just watched the Movie “The fault in Our stars” and it made me feel and remember all kinds of pain that I have felt before … We have felt pain when: loved ones and parents have left us … the things we really want in life get so close ...
So we have been having a garbage disposal problem for over a week or so now. The only garbage collectors that come our way are the ones to whom we need to pay quite an amount to get rid of the garbage, private contractors. The reason they didn’t come is because the Municipal council had not renewed their contract. Since ...
As a child, One sweet day by Mariah Carey and Boyz II Men was one of my favourites. Today, after years, I heard this song on my way home from gym and my mind drifted away towards so many memories.. Now when I hear this song, there’s one person I think of…. The man who gave me everything…The man who meant everything to me… We call him ‘Thaththie’
Is the name of a place that undertakes to teach Autistic kids. A colleague goes there as a volunteer to teach a few kids and to spend time with them and when she and I were just randomly talking about weekends, this popped up. I felt excited for the fact that there are lovely humans like this and also because ...
I was out of Colombo the last two days and while travelling to Wellawaya from Tissa, we came across 6 elephants on the narrow road. We were traveling in a massive Sri Lankan Airlines tourist bus and on and off elephants would get onto the road and obstruct the way. Those wild elephants were harmless. Do you know what they ...
On Monday morning I was in office early to help out my colleagues to decorate for a big boss’ bday. Once the decorations were in place, one of my colleagues told me not to panic and that there was a flying cockroach near my table and that before he could do anything, it flew away and this was for my ...
