Friday Film

Extracted

Weekend is here!
I love Friday evenings.Of course everyone does. And I am waiting for the evening and for him to return back from his office.
Meanwhile, I was looking for a film to watch and I found this movie. Extracted. A 2012 sci-fi thriller where a man has devised a way, a technique to enter people's minds and view their memories. And then he gets trapped in his own built technique. The story runs around him trying to break out.
A strong critique might question a lot on its plot, logic and realism. But I find the plot interesting,it keeps one hooked and gives brain a tickle to assemble everything going on and intrigued me enough as to guess what would be next.
And I find such flicks reasonable watchable. Sci-fi thrillers is one tag which I look for most of the times while finding movies to watch and favorably my sister and husband are akin in that matter.
So I usually get a great company, also the partners to suggest me more on that.
Give this movie a shot when you've got a craving for a thriller.

Kitchen Stories!

It hasn't been a long time that I have taken up cooking almost close to a daily affair kind thing,only since I am here with my husband, away from mothers who are moms of usual adorable fashion, who just love to feed their kids with sumptuous food every meal.
And growing up like that can sometimes extract best out of you,[or put a lot in you ;) ],it can make you an expert critic or connoisseur. And I can say that because without much hands-on cooking before my wedding, my ability to manage cooking today  is realistically perfect. Yeah, I am boasting :P
Don't believe? Ask my husband, or some of my friends here. Am I not ? :D
Anyway, although I might have those cooking skills rooted in me, nonetheless, there are few tips that have helped, those which I have absorbed from observations of some feminines around or have got directly from them. Like I have seen one of my friend's mom putting oil/ghee in wheat flour while preparing dough for chapattis/rotis which makes them really soft.
And there are few more :-
When you are sauting curry sauce/masala for gravy, steam it once in pressure cooker. It makes gravy better.
Put a spoon of oil or ghee when preparing rice .That makes it like each and every grain separated kind.
No coriander for dal makhani. No ginger for shahi paneer.
Prepare black chickpeas in the same water they were kept soaked in over the night.
Roast semolina for enough long time say an hour over sim for delicious halwa.
Wash cauliflower well in advance before you are making any veggie with it so that it is completely dried up.
Put salt and/or sugar while you are cooking pumpkin only once it has reduced to its minimal volume.

Oh my my .. I am sounding like an expert who can actually give tips..
Well that's for now. I would be posting in more when I will have my hands full of them again.

Snorkeling !

Thats not me ! found it from google

11th April,2014.And on this day of our trip to Bahamas, we landed at an island called Coco Cay. By we, I mean myself and myhusband. A little more detail - Coco Cay is a privately owned island by the cruise line we were travelling with , RoyalCarribean.

We had decided on the ship itself to indulge our day doing one of the water sports on the island, either para-sailing or snorkeling. On reaching we could see people rushing for the snorkeling counter and we too got our snorkeling kits.

At first place, I don't know swimming. I took my life jacket along from home itself. More details - He had gifted me life jacket this birthday to help myself swim in the apartments' pool while he is a swimmer since he was 9 or 10.

So, We got our kits on and we got into water and I tried to splash around and then float onto my back with the help of life jacket.
But I was there for snorkeling. I could not float onto my back all the while.

And then he told me to turn around and to give a try floating onto my stomach and poke my face inside water and see inside through it. I tried but I just could not lie flat onto my stomach. Then he held my hands and asked me to keep my face inside and walk and then see. But all the time I ended up taking water in and almost to vomit it out. and I told him to do it all himself and I will sit by the beach. With the kind of inclination he has for water, I could almost tell his heart was dying to take a plunge in that beauty of water and to explore it inside. So he just went for a dive returning back almost in 10 to 15 min.

And here he banged on me the idea of getting in again because he had seen some hundreds of fishes and turtles in that time under water. And he insisted like anything to come on and just try once more just not to miss the astounding beauty of the life inside. And I put on again that snorkeling kit. And then he told me to have faith on him and forget that I will sink inside and he will save me from that and just to hold his hand while inside. So we got in again together. And this time I had more faith on him and myself too.

I tried to lay onto my stomach this time with little more determination. and I could do a little better. While I laid afloat on to my stomach now,I tried to see in but I was not able to see much. And then he held my hand and like just pulled me through water as he swam across.I kept flowing with him holding his hand.And then we were at a golden point. He pointed with his other hand in a direction and I could so clearly see that through such clear transparent water. And there laid ahead a bunch of beautiful colorful fishes surrounded by corals and plants, the sight of which just made my heart pound, stirring through me instantly BLISS! Those striped colorful fishes, some silver ones, and plants waving around them, the 'finding nemo' fish, WOW, heavenly!!  And at that particular moment, I could not understand what was more powerful to bring that in me, that hand of faith or that sight of beauty. But for that moment I really felt an unbound love for him, because lending a belief to another person that he can totally be on you is one beautiful thing to offer.

And it was something that is gonna stay in me like a little thing yet big enough to love him a lot more.
This post is truly a dedication for him to bring on my way beautiful wonders hidden here or there.

Saturday !!!

Yes !!! I am gonna talk about Saturday on Sunday ..
Coz I always miss Saturday a lot on Sunday.
That's life,  you miss things when they are gone ..
In fact this is so very peculiar about the human nature, that things are important when they are in hands, but they become even more important once they are gone.

Ok ..so .. 
coming back to the topic .. the Saturday ..
the day of the week when my life sees more than usual colors ..
The day when a morning tea is meant to stir in me its aroma, its warmth rather than just instilling some freshness ..
the day when i can dream .. when i can be awake as long as I want without fearing it is office tomorrow... when there is no such option as to take bath or not .. coz my rule for Saturday says no bathing .. :D
The day belongs to me ... and so the night making me feel so privileged ..
Falling amidst Friday and Sunday, it gets to win all the importance. Office on Friday,and office on day next to Sunday make them truly not that likable.
It is one fearless day of the week.. a day when i can expand my boundaries of activities in all directions of my interests, or at the same time I can be as lethargic as possible ..
The day when I can beg people to spare some time for me ..
It brings me closer to myself .. so I love it more than any other day ..

And now I have got a new song to enjoy the feeling ..

Hai horsey horsey ride
Cause Saturday hai night
....
Lets party on my mindddd !!!

HugZZ !!

There is something truely magical about hug that at times sets everything right for me.
I will be engaged revolving in and around some complexities, and suddenly I will feel an urge that I need hug someone, and next moment I will look around to find one whom I can give a hug.
And I tell you, this activity serves me better than meditation even ;)
A close surrender to a loved one which has been so rightly said as "Jaadu ki Jhappi" works wonder for me.
Try it.
When you are sad or just a bit low, look around, find someone whom you can give a hug and just play the shot.

This reminds me of this song by Paul McCartney

Take care of me and I'll be right
Hold me tight hugga me right

And these are two very cute pictures representing a hug that I found so so lovely.

Propose Day !

With the propose day on the floors today, I just went searching what if I wanna propose someone.

Here comes some cute ways you definitely might expect a yes.

Let a fortune cookie gamble some  fortune for you :)

With the warmth of some awesomely made tea or coffee

This actually looks like the most impressive to me. Definitely can expect a Yes from the guy who loves gaming consoles

Win his/her heart in a game of scramble.

Take him/her to a coffee house. Let these cup serves get you a Yes.!

Bake a cake and see what answer you receive.

Anyday, a rose in hands, kneel down in front of her and with that loving smile, ask her !

(: !!!~~!!~  HAppy PRopoSe DaY  ~!!~~!!! :)

Jab We Met !

And those were lush green lands,
under azure sky,
And leaves were rustling,
Like their thundering sighs,
The fragrance of breeze,
Rolled over wheels,

A blanket of flowers,
A mighty heart,
Took a deep plunge,
Into a new world,
And they met for the time first,
When for beauty and poise,
Nature had accomplished its thirst,

And they later called it Love.
