THE INDIAN SKY AND MY FIRST EXHIBITION

A few months ago, amidst a lot of changes and city moves, I decided to take the plunge and set up an online store selling my handmade wares. Countless hours spent stuck to the computer and even more running around finding the perfect (and patient!) vendor have finally led to something great and wonderful. Along with an annoying addiction to coffee and fizzy drinks. Damn you caffeine!


Now, one month in and it's as crazy as ever. I've got so much love and appreciation that everything now seems overwhelming and surreal. Someone please pinch me awake. 

 TheIndian Sky is now live. My little shop combines the love of design, illustration, and typography to create colourful prints and paper goods. Here, you will find a melange of whistle-worthy art prints, calendars, cards and home goods.




To kick things off its and get the word out, I recently set up my first stall at Delhi's I Haat Delhi exhibition. Oh what a whirlwind! A week to prep everything and get all the products ready and two days of showtime—the festival was crazy in all senses. On the 14th and 15th of Feb, my lovely family and I, made our way to Garden of Five Senses to set up my first shop-of-sorts. Lots of friendly fellow sellers, intense music, and great customers later we managed to have a brilliant time!


Here's hoping you guys can stop by on my next exhibition!

    Sun City Cabanas The Cabanas at Sun City, South Africa, are the pinnacle of family-friendly accommodation. The hotel opens on to rolling lawns and is conveniently located close to the man-made Waterworld lake, and the wide range of water activities offered here.

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...
