Few days back I received my first Influenster #SpringVoxBox. Since this one was my first box I was excited. However, TEE and S were more thrilled than me. Before we could we open the box there was a whole argument between both sisters as who would get what. I had to remind them that those …
While it is the end of mango season in India, here in NJ it is just the beginning. When I think of mango I instantly think of my college friends. If you read my previous post Mango Milkshake and Memories of College you will know why . Anyway, apart from that I look forward to …
Don’t you just hate to lug around a fat, fluffy towel when you are on a road trip or traveling. I speak from experience when I say it is extremely cumbersome to pack towels especially when traveling abroad. Every time I travel to India, my mom reminds me not to bring any of our towels. …
Since we moved to our house five years back, my DH wanted me to start a vegetable garden. I was not very thrilled about the idea. I don’t deal very well with bugs, insects, pests or any other kinds of creepy crawlies. I don’t mind planting flowers, but dealing with a vegetable patch is a …
Hi everyone, TEE here with my latest review of Cinder by Marissa Meyers. I found this book in my school library and even though I read it few weeks back, I had to wait for all my tests/exams to get over before I could post my review. You cannot believe how excited I am about …
I bet, a lot of you must have looked twice at the pictures below and thought those animated handbags are not real. However, I will assure you the bags are real and only made to appear animated. It is not a trick to fool your eyes. It is not something that has been photo shopped …
Last week I went to our local Asian store and was shopping around in the produce section. All of a sudden I heard TEE screaming, and was incoherently asking me to buy something. I told her to calm down, and asked her what it was that she wanted. Trying to contain her enthusiasm she pointed …
I had this recipe for date rolls with me for years. It was given to me by my dear friend Janet whose mom used to make it. When I first made this it did not turn out right. The measurement for the ingredients was recorded in grams and milligrams, and I think during conversion I …
I bought this base cabinet from a garage sale a couple of years back. I was using it as a storage solution wherever or in which ever room it was needed. It is one of those IKEA cabinets which is not fancy but served its purpose. There was nothing really wrong with but I wanted …
Pineapple Chutney recipe is perfect for those pineapples, which look good and ripe on the outside, but the inside is sour and tangy. This 3 ingredient pineapple chutney is sweet with a hint of heat and pairs perfectly with a good toast. About the Recipe I love pineapples. However, I get frustrated when I find …
Have you heard of the documentary “A Billion Entrepreneurs”? Recently, I was offered an opportunity to write about this documentary and the director Jimmy Newson’s 14 day global crusade to appear on late night TV. First let me start with the documentary. It is a feature length film that follows real entrepreneurs from all walks …
Sometimes I find myself looking at both TEE and ‘S’ and wondering what they will be when they grow up. I know as a mom or a parent I am not alone. I am sure we have all done this with our kids. We look at them and we think — I bet she/he will …
[box]This is a sponsored post for JenJenHouse.[/box] I grew up in India, and went to an all-girls catholic high school. Over there we had no tradition of Prom. It’s not like I did not know of Prom, after all I used to watch a lot of American movies. However, never in my wildest dreams …
Do you as a parent ever wonder how to teach your children to be kind, and not use bad and tacky words as a way to express their feelings? If you have, then you are not alone. These days using bad words have become the norm and the cool thing to do. I know it. …
I recently received the Ozeri Touch II digital kitchen scale for review purpose. I have to say when I received the package I was thrilled. You see, I wanted a kitchen scale for a long time, but it was one of those gadgets, which always fell into the “I will get it later” types. Anyway, …
