LIFE LATELY | CONCERTS, FOOD AND WANDERLUST


Hey guys!

How is the universe at your end? Things have been quietly brewing here and Freddie has been bringing a ton of joy and hair-pulling into our world. He is 2 and a half months old now and every bit a naughty teenager. Tell him not to chew on something, and he would go right at it! But the excitement with which he greets you every time and the love with which he curls up on your lap makes up for everything. So far, this little nugget has learned how to sit and say hi. Adorable much?


I have had so many late nights these past few days that my brain is now accustomed to functioning only at midnight. Not good. Trying to find ways to get up early and sleep early. I can so hear everyone in my family snicker at me while reading this. I'll get to it guys!


We went to see Alt J! Granted I am not familiar with every song on their list, but boy were they awesome. However, I soon realised, being short does absolutely nothing for you with regards to a concert. Smelling everyone's armpits and craning your neck at an awful angle is really the highlight of things. Any solutions?


This weekend was the most eventful weekend we have had in a while. We went to see a lovely play that a friend was acting in and indulged in a bucket-full of laughs. This, followed by chicken risotto and truffle cake at Big Chill was just too good to be true. I don't think I'll try anything on their menu ever again. This might just be my staple order!


AND. In crazy awesome news.
We are planning a getaway soon. I say planning, but I really mean we have booked. After three days of midnight cleartrip, makemytrip and yatra.com surfing, (read: the reason for countless late nights above) we managed to book a trip to Mcleodganj, Dharamsala! I am beyond excited!!! Any tips or recommendations?

See you soon!

MAKE IT | SPRAY PAINTED JAR CANDLES (part 02)

In a previous post , we made beautiful spray painted heart jars. Here is part two of the tutorial where I turn those same jars into decadent smelling candles. You need: Candle wax of your choice Candle wick Mason Jar (Follow the tutorial here ) Fragrance Oil  Before you begin, be sure you have the appropriate type and size of the wick. If your jar is wide, make sure wick is wide enough in diameter to burn optimally. And, if its narrow and long, make sure the length of the wick is sufficient enough.  Measure out the amount of wax needed. For this project, I melted the wax in a make-shift double boiler made from two metal containers—one small and one large. Fill water in the large container. Put the wax in the smaller container and place it in the larger one. Melt the wax on low to medium-low heat. Never leave melting wax unattended! While the wax is melting, secure your wick to the bottom of your mason jar. Dip the end in the melting wax and a...

THE MIXTAPE PROJECT / 01

I've been working on this series idea for a while now and finally it's here! The Mixtape Project, a series to document interesting people, their music choices and their personal quirk. Here is my first guest for today... MAYANK KUMAR / DELHI If you could pick one, which superhero would you be?  I don't really follow the superhero concept but if I had to, I guess i'd pick Batman. That's simply because of his sharp mind and his ability to solve humongous issues with just his mere intellect. What would your DJ name be?  Can't imagine myself behind a console wearing earphones bigger than my face. But I guess 'Max' would do? Or just M? What's your favourite joke?  A jealous haryanavi man opened his own momos shop right next to the famous 'Yo! China' and named it 'Yo! Bhi China'. What's the weirdest nickname people call you? Mickey. My first birthday cake had a Mickey Mouse on it. And that's where the name ...
