Hello VR Mam, post 9057,59 so nice and good.liked it .All are interesting and informative .thanks for your effects ,take care. :) :) :)

Dear Dr. C.N ! :yo:

There is a lot we can learn from the West in addition to punctuality and being courteous and thrifty.

Th major problem for the senior ans super senior citizens in India is

the fall in the bathroom leading to broken hips and other associated complications.

I like the bath room of the West.

It is dry, sweet smelling and NON SLIPPERY.

I have done perfect splits :scared:

when I had slipped in my bathroom in India.

By Devi's divine grace I escaped injury and fractures. :hail:

Thank you Ms. Vaidehi.

I can't give a Like since there is no such option now!

Thoughts are the seeds.

Words are the plants or trees.

Actions ae the fruits of those plants/ trees.

That is why we must entertain good thoughts.

That is why we reap what we sow!
 
All the lovely blogs vanished into thin air. :(

No more like button. :(

All the posts liked have vanished too! :(

What will be the next thing to vanish...to make this a hat trick??? :(

Revolutions restore Liberty, Equality and Fraternity.

The easiest way to make all people equal is to strip the rich of their riches. :popcorn:

There are still a lot of factors making people FEEL unequal here. :pout:

I thought about it in my twilight zone and came up with this list.

Who knows it may prove prophetic and very useful too.
Achievement, Awards, Profile, Photos, Number of posts, Points, Images, Friends :bump2:

The only way to make people feel SAME SAME

is to strip all of them of their FAME FAME.

Right??? :rolleyes:
 
Laptop is dangerous with small kids playing around.

One slip and fall is sure to hurt the kid or the laptop or both! :(

Varun hurt his forehead by such an accident.

Instead of crying and bringing down the roof :Cry:

the poor child allowed to his mother to apply band-aid

and applied on it the ice pack by himself! :shocked:

Children with both parents working are mature and strong far beyond their age! :thumb:
 
Talking of laptops, I can't but relate

how a laptop got hurt and very badly too! :smash:

Tejas poured a glass of juice on a laptop.

Apparently the laptop is never thirsty (for knowledge)

and took the unwelcome drink too seriously.

My younger don had to spend ~ 500 $ to restore it to working condition.

The costliest un-drunk-glass of lemonade it proved to be!!! :rolleyes:
 
To be able to park two cars one needs a three car garage...:car:..:car:

since the miscellaneous items stored in the garage :juggle:

are sure to take the space needed by one car! :car:
 
I am appalled by the tons of clothes to be washed every week! :faint:

Where do they come from? :noidea:

Why do they change clothes so many times during a day? :noidea:

Where and how do they store them? :noidea:

In India we manage with far lesser clothes

and still appear well dressed and tidy always.
 
The color scheme is also drab. :bored:

All the girl's dresses are in shades of pink.

All the boy's dresses are in shades of blue.

The adults dress in neutral colors common for both genders!

So when I wear a colorful sari which no one will notice in India

I stand out like a sore thumb from the rest of the population

or shine like a magpie amidst dull birds! :rolleyes:

The little girl who taught kutty Varun

the complicated dance movements wonders about my sari.

She did not know where it began and where it ended. :confused:

(Aadi antham illatha udai!!!) :rolleyes:

She kept going round and round me, exploring for the loose ends

and kept asking me," What are you wearing grandma?" :becky:
 
Hypochondriacs are difficult to live with. :fear:

They are capable of measuring their blood pressure on hourly basis

and spend the in between duration in worrying

WHY the readings are never the same!

They are capable of measuring the body temperature

with three different thermometers almost continuously

(one in Fahrenheit, one in Centigrade and one digital)

and pester the unfortunate family members :suspicious:

WHY the temperature varies from reading to reading.

I bet the heat taken away from the body

by these numerous thermometers cause

the minute variation in the readings. :high5:
 
Eating brown rice (kaik kuththal arisi) is catching on here.

It gives wonderful aroma when coked in the

special rice cookers made for the purpose.

But they are gooey (pasty) and thick grained.
 
Brown sugar is the unrefined sugar with

more health benefits than the white sugar.

People are realizing the worth of the

brown goods and brown girls over the

white goods and white girls!!! :rolleyes:
 
Colorado is a eco-conscious state! :clap2:

The other states (known to me) give two trash cans-

one for the garbage and one for the articles to be recycled.

But in Colorado they segregate the plastic bags separately ( in a third basket)

Now it has been proved that liquid fuel can be extracted from these plastic bags.

So it a double damaka indeed.

The practically indestructible plastic bags are taken care of

and the liquid fuel is an welcome bye product any day!

The milk bottles and gallon cans are reused in stead of being recycled.

We just have to rinse the milk can well and return it

to get a sizable discount on the next bottle of milk we buy.

The number of cans used for the milk, butter milk, juice, detergents etc

and recycled is mind blowing.

Restoring and reusing is better than recycling.

Recycling is better than trashing it.
 
Varun is becoming adventurous by the minute.

Now he wants to eat idli with chutney power

(the dosai miLagaaippodi) and sesame oil!

I think that by the time we leave this city in about a month's time,

he will be eating the regular food along with the rest of the family! :)

The photos of homemade products by my younger son and his wife

have been posted in my gallery as promised. (images 302 to 305)

I am not sure on which fine day all of them may disappear into thin air.

So make hay while the sun shines! :flame:

and see the images while they are still there! :bump2:
 
The Soccer ball cake made for the birthday party of Tejas

when he turned four is really mind blowing!

The perfect spherical shape of the cake, the perfect design and colors of the icing,

and the green field on which it is set are too much to be verbally explined to you. :love:
