FRIDAY FAVOURITES!




It's Friday! Ola people!

How have you all been! I'm running on a sugar high at the moment, having consumed a ton of sugar, so the world seems happier and sweeter. Which it is, considering it's the weekend and that's when i meet and catch up with all friends and others! I realised this blog for me is like family, one that i retreat to when i feel extremely lonely and isolated. ( A feeling ever present in this city!) That's my reason for blogging. What's yours?

Here are my favourite things from the past week!


FAVOURITE INDULGENCE: Dark Chocolate Tart! It's only fair that i'm eating a chocolate cheesecake while typing this! Any one who loves me enough care to make this for a sweet, ever appreciating friend? Anyone? Hello?


FAVOURITE STYLE:Statement style! A little bit of bohemian, a hint of chic and a whole lot of casual! That blue patterned top is beautiful and i am dying to start a collection of mismatched accessories! 



FAVOURITE FEELING:Thank God it's Friday! Phew. A stressful week coupled with bidding farewell to a co-worker has drained a bit of energy out of me. Solution? Party hard!


FAVOURITE EYE-CANDY: Max Irons. Sigh. Drool. All fan girl screams ensue. He's one of the rebel kinds, the one most girls secretly have a crush on, even if they know he's not good for them. The one who'd sit back, show a little sass, and casually fiddle with his watch. (Can you tell I've watched all interviews possible of him?) Who is he you ask? He's the actor from the new-ish movie The Host. Not a Stephanie Meyer fan but the actors were great in this!


Have a great weekend guys!

FOR ONE | BANANA NUTELLA PANCAKES

*Ahem* Disclaimer: I am not addicted to Nutella. Yes, i may use it in all my recipes! And well…yes i do talk about it almost every other day. And i do really really like it. I still believe i am not addicted. So, there! I love recipes that yield one serving. Living on my own has enlightened me about the fact that there is no shame in asking the price of a single tomato or a few onions. And while all the recipes online come with family sized portions, i love when i can figure out the correct proportions to satisfy my lonesome hungry tummy.  I was in food heaven when i had tried these pancakes in Thailand. Did i mention I'd eat this every day? And thus, on a bored and sunny day, when i had not much to do but give my cat company, i decided to revisit the good ol' vacation days!  First attempt: Pancake utter fail. (Note: Never ever try and make pancakes on a burning hot stove. Just don't.) Second attempt: Hold on till i go devour these! ( Thanks to mother...

LOVING A NEW CITY #01

FIND FRIENDS.  Moving to a new city is substantially less scary when you have a friend along. Obviously, it does not take away the frustrating running around, but it does make things a whole lot easier. You'd want a friend when a broker calls you at a random hour to a random location, you'd need someone when your house floods because someone left the tap on and you'd especially need someone when you just want to laugh at a funny-annoying situation. It could be that one friend that moves in with you, or just someone you met at work..try and keep people closer when you're in a new city. I moved to Bombay along with a lot of other students from my batch. With everyone as lost as i was, it was easier to navigate things. I could not imagine getting used to the city on my own. I'd probably slip down the station stairs and no one would notice. (a long running inside joke with my first friend in Bombay!). So thank you those few first friends in Bombay and in Del...

A SILENT SCREAM

It's not easy to talk about something you aren't even sure exists. It's also not easy to talk about something that makes you different from others and in so many ways almost identical to them.  Sweaty palms, that sinking feeling in your heart, the panic that rises in your stomach and the fear that things will always go wrong no matter what. There isn't one name to this problem. I'm not really beating about the bush, nor am i wanting to name it outright. I've been through depression before. It could be the same this time, or completely different. i can't snap out of it. No matter how hard i try and no matter how many times i tell myself its going to be okay. It's like a living being that sits in my stomach and waits and waits.  I panic. I scream in my head sometimes and i just want to sit in absolute silence on most days.  I cope through it through food and through long spells of couch therapy. It's not really coping i guess…more li...
