This weekend will be our 16th wedding anniversary. As I was browsing the web for a meaning yet functional gift for my DH, I stumbled upon the This Guy T-Shirts. I don’t know why, but this T-Shirt immediately made me smile. I found the phrase “This Guy Loves his Wife” amusing as well as brilliant. …
I came across Meal Measure when I was browsing Pinterest. Immediately out of curiosity I clicked on the referral link and found out, it is one of those “As seen on TV” products and has been around for a couple of years now. I however, do not remember seeing it. I don’t know about you …
Melting tights, sound so risqué right? It’s not what you think. These are tights or hosiery designed on purpose to look as if something ghastly has melted over your thighs.

As I approach 2013 with new objectives and resolutions, I look into my past for resurrection. I am not talking about resurrection in terms of religion. Actually it is a revival of my old T-SHIRT DRESS Project (those who don’t remember about it please check out the link). About two years back I collaborated with …
So finally it’s that time of the year and Christmas is two days away. From the time Thanksgiving ends and the holidays officially begin, my girls perpetually hound me. Their biggest question is what they will be getting for Christmas and my answer is always the same…..“nothing”. The reason for that is, as an Indian-American …

I know what you are thinking…. not another tote. Actually, I was planning on making this one for quiet some time now. My little one started attending Hindi language classes at our local temple. I wanted to make her a monogrammed tote, which she could use to carry her textbooks. But, It took me a …
The next time you come upon some road kill don’t be disgusted…just pick it up, bring it home, wash it up and create a masterpiece. Of course, in order to do the last step you have to be a controversial designer like Jess Eaton. Jess who is known for her Roadkill designs, has launched her …
Ok…I agree the title is a little misleading. This is not my tutorial for making a ruffle scarf. However, I will say that the following scarves have been made in thirty minutes and that too by T. Even though I was aware of how to knit this scarf, I was more interested in the crocheting …
As I send Diwali wishes to my family, friends, visitors and followers I sincerely hope each one of you have a great day, and fill your hearts as well as your homes with lots of light and love. Have a great Diwali and don’t forget to gorge on all the sweets 🙂 . …
Mangalorean Mango Pickle…yum! Need I say more? Just the thought of it releases fond memories of my mom making batches of it during summer in preparation for Monsoon. A spoonful of this pickle with rice soup (ghanji) was and still is an ultimate comfort food for me. Like everything else my mom inherited this recipe …

This is one of those recipes that look good only on paper. I found the pin for this frozen yogurt strawberry on Pinterest. It was sourced from Glamour.com who in turn had sourced it from here. Check out the picture yourself and tell me if you can resist the temptation to make something like this. …
I don’t buy into this whole pumpkin-carving event during Halloween. I hate it and find the whole thing messy and disgusting. I don’t like the fact that once we have carved the pumpkin we leave it exposed to outside elements, which most of the time results in a rotting, shriveling and repulsive sight. So like …
