Just another Day, treasurable or trash-able

Lessons Learned. Keep it Simple. Never say "Never". There is FAMILY, then there is "people". If going to the moon for vacation requires leaving my dog - No, thanks. (Then, my idea of vacation is not the same as yours perhaps) "Motivation" is key to anything.  "First impression" and "Sweet words" are mostly bull-s__t.  To "trust" -> Complicated.

Teetu - Oh Appu chii, you still look beautiful and you are my Appu chi. Isn't she adorable? Love her so much unconditionally. Alright, my next best friend who is a little popular for "Selective hearing". Appu chii- J, are you ready for your treat? J - Jumps all over me and says this with her body language - Ofcourse mommy! Appu chii- Here you go. J runs to her room and enjoys her treat. She usually is too very occupied when she gets her favorite treat (Ofcourse, who isn't). Suddenly, Appu chii- Aaaaaaaaaa..

What's cooking?

"From a toddler cook to an experimental chef at home :)"  In spite of the many situations that demand for "band-aids" starting 2006-2007, inventions and improvisations in my kitchen continue..
