Tumultuous! and that's the only way to describe the way things have been! her life has pretty much been work driven as as you know who has gone on to say "apni life main testing ke alava kuch chhoda hai?" to which a very sheepish answer was "i need something to do now that you aren't here!" ;)
The kukkad makkhanwala (aka butter chicken) she made for her new found 'bachchas' was a superhit! Ok.. before you wonder more.. my bachchas are my testing team who work the way I do to achieve something we know is unachievable! But then.. "If at first you don't succeed call it version 1.0"! :D
Ok.. so she's had friends at her throat o give up work! she's listening.. she's taking a semi-break in jan! Mom's looking forward to her going home so much so that even before she could get up in the morning (or evening given her sleep cycle) dad had gone and booked them and sent her an email with the details! It's been quite sometime since she was back at "home". Things must have changed she's sure...
Dada aka Barman aka the guy who she insists is wasted and so should get married is in town and so is the crush of her life! It was idle banter and lots of laughter as a bunch of 8 people (one of which was a Sardar and the other a Sardarni) decided "zindagi bahut chhoti si hoti hai"! And that resulted in them gobbling up 2 chicken platters first and then eventually 35 parathas!
So the scene at the Delhi Dhaba went like this:
"ji paintees (35) paranthe.. 15 aaloo, 10 gobi, 10 mooli"
stares her down and then "makkhan ya dahi?"
"ji dono"
another stare.. "kaake pack kar jaldi..!" one more stare.. "paintee paranthe!"
(take a guess at who the Sardarni was..! and as the Barman put it.. 'an evening with Sardar and Sardarni!') ;)
Meanwhile a kitten has decided to jump up into the car through the window and in between shouts and screams the li'l thing for its surprised life is shooed out! (and she wonders.. how such things happen to her! whoever heard of a cat climbing into a car through an open window!)
and now she sits waiting for the sun to stream in through her windows so that she can get some sleep! (yep... jilted body cycle! or is it the parathas??! 3 hajmolas down!) :D
