Trash day

SHE: Its Wednesday, could you clear the trash and leave the garbage cans on the driveway?

HE: mmm..ok in about 15 mins

The job gets done after the 4th 15 minutes slot

HE: Comes in sighing

SHE:You only cleared the trash, you did not clean the whole house

HE: ??%%$$##@@???

Baap of forgetfulness

TH takes the car to office
commutes back home by bus
more than halfway through realises
he has the car parked in the office building

Gotta love TH!

Biriyani

We eat out-I order channa batura and you biriyani.I rave about the biriyani after I taste from your plate and you nod your head in agreement.I talk about the biriyani atleast a dozen times and you did not seem to have an issue with things being repeated.We pack the left overs-one batura and 3 spoonfuls of biriyani home and Iask you if you will take them for lunch tomorrow so I don't need to cook, you say yes.
I come down after 9 in the morning the next day and you are already gone to work.I open the refrigerator to make sure you remembered to take your lunch and I notice the small biriyani box in the corner of a shelf.I smile, take the box out, warm it and eat it.I know the lunch wouldn't have been sufficient for you with just one batura, but this love of yours for me is sufficient to last a lifetime.

A knock on the bathroom door

I was singing inside the bathroom as I was getting ready to head outside.Suddenly, a knock on the door

Me:Who is it?

TH: Its me..are you ok? Why are you crying?

Me: I wasn't crying, I was singing..my voice cracked a little bit

TH:??&&%%@@@???

Puttum Kadalayum

that I cooked for dinner today tasted good, infact very good.Was it the memory of amma neatly layering coconut and the puttu podi or was it the memory of me circling around the kitchen trying to smell the fresh steam coming out of the puttu maker?Nah, I think it was also the mental picture of the corner hotel where I used to go and order " chetta oru puttum kadalayum parcel cheyyane" and how I would keep smelling the puttu wrapped in a fire roasted banana leaf all the way back home - all the memories came flooding and with every bite, the puttum kadalayum warmed my heart and my taste buds

2013

ME: Do you want to know what mine are?

TH:Ya tell me

TH: Didn't you have the very same goals last year too?

Happy 2013 folks!

This Diwali

I found one more way to add some Lbs by gobbling 3 rava ladoos, 1 mysorepak,2 handfuls of mixture, countless thattais and 6 dry fruit sweets.
Egad!
