ABC Wednesday- C for Creeper


My mom and I have always had a fascination for gardening. When we moved to a new house, we lost the space we used to get for planting plants and creepers.


Today morning, my mom surprised me by giving me a new creeper in my very own balcony. Perfect alphabet for me. C for Creepers.


This is a post for ABC Wednesday...**Kindly bear with the quality of the picture**

Pet Pride - Earthworms

They say earthworms are farmer's best friend. I am a farmer in my own little balcony where I tend to small plants. Recently, this tiny fella gave a small visit to my plants and I decided that he should make some friends during his journey.

This post goes on Pet Pride...hosted by magiceye....friends....Meet Wiggly....

Its my world - A dying art of embroidery.


Had recently been to a shop in the mall opposite my home. I was surprised that they actually had a person performing hand embroidery in the shop, and I must say I was impressed with the strategy of the shop, because with all the new advances in technology, hand embroidery is definitely a dying art.


I submit this post for ItsMyWorld-Tuesday. :)

ABC Wednesday - A for ART


I don't intend to brag, but my first submission for ABC Wednesday is my own ART. This is an abstract art that decorates one of the walls in my home. Its an abstract design consisting of various geometrical shapes intersecting within each other and every intersection with a different texture.
The one thing i m proud of in this art is that not a single ruler is used and the whole design is done with black coloured Sketch Pens, Fine tip Pens, and Whiteboard Markers.
**I wish i had a better camera to capture the design more closely..maybe next time.

Pyaasa Saawan...


We have been desperate to get some rains to avoid water cuts in Mumbai...Its been raining since 2 days...and this is what I find in Mumbai. Somehow, dont know whether we should be happy about rains or sad for those who are tolerating water logging..

Thank goodness HE doesnt discriminate who he showers his rains on. Not a very incredible bird...but surely deserves a space on my blog, because even I dont discriminate against birds.

You and I in this beautiful world.

You guys have already met Kaalu. Today I introduce you all to my other favourite pet during my morning walks. Meet Maurya...He is my neighbour's relative's dog. Recently the relatives were out of town for 2 weeks and I had the pleasure of spending time with this gorgeous hunk.

Unfortunately, the relatives came back yesterday and I could'nt say good bye to him. The good news however is that he is just 2 blocks away and I get to see him every morning on the way to gym, while aunty waits for her children to get into the school bus :)

This photograph deserves to be in Pet pride hosted by magiceye and You can view more pet's pics there.

Rules bent at their convenience...

Maha govt for Marathi number plates in Mumbai : Tuesday, April 08, 2008
Mumbai: The Maharashtra government is going to seek permission of the Central Government to allow Marathi number plates on the vehicles in the city.
Deputy Chief Minister R R Patil said in the State Council that English number plate is must as per the Motor Vehicle Act 1989. Marathi number plate can be used by the owner besides the English plate. The state government needs approval from the Centre to amend the Act and introduce Marathi number plates on the vehicles in the city, the minister said. Patil also assured that the matter will be taken in to the cabinet meeting soon. The issue of Marathi number plate was raised by Shiv Sena MLC Diwakar Raote. He said carrying Marathi number plate is crime in the state. RTO officials impose fine on such number plates, Patil added.

Prison can be anywhere...

This snap is of an aquarium in our gymnasium. Though it looks beautiful, I am sure it feels like prison to the fishes in there. No matter how beautiful, there is nothing more worth having than freedom.

Death is just the beginning...


This image is of a graveyard visible directly through my balcony. When we bought this house, many people advised us against buying the house because of the graveyard view, but THANKFULLY, my parents didnt listen to those people and bought the house. I took the opportunity to occupy the room that has a direct view of the same and I have had the most peacefuly evenings in my balcony since Day One.
When it comes to ghosts, I dont believe in them, unless i experience something,..What about u??
