Bourbon!! Yay!!

I was in the mood for a biscuit. I went by to pick one up. I saw it. They replaced those Orange cream biscuits with Bourbon!!! Yay!! I just couldn't resist it so I picked up two instead of my regular one ;) And I think I am going to have a couple more before this day is out. I just love these ones. Always made everyone buy a packet for me on train/bus rides. Did I mention I am taking a train today which may lead to another TINKLE+Bourbon purchase? :D :D

PS: This is the first post which qualified for a "General" label after those long series of "India Move" ones ;) Finally the routine? :D

Sunset Views

Some pictures I took of the sunset from our Balcony:) The pictures are hazy because in the evening you can actually see a cloud of dust settle over the horizon. Maybe I should call this "The good and the bad" ?

Rain Woes!

As if to try and live up to my expecations, there was a power outage on Wednesday by the time I got back home. Maybe a couple of hours. It rained very heavily and naturally a power-cut ensued. When I got home I also saw a puddle (actually I should call it a mini-pool) of water all over the kitchen. I was scared it might be the fridge. But it dawned on me eventually that it was actually the rain water that got inside thanks to the door. The door in the kitchen balcony is actually a little above the ground (very little) but nothing that a "gattu" (small elevated construction near doors) couldn't solve. But this house didn't have any. So I have that one more item on my list of to-do things ;) For the time being we put a manual barricade (one of our suitcases which was rendered useless after our move to India) in the balcony.

We are going to Hyd for the weekend! Yay!! I already have a charter to eat here, here and there (no I didn't forget linking the words here and there, they are just symbolic). Its the Telugu New Year on Monday followed by my birthday on Tuesday. An extended weekend getaway will do just fine for me for now :D
