As usual I was cooking and handling other housework when Sanju came to the dining room pointed at the Box that contained bikki. Srini's aunt who was visiting us gave one to her. Fast forward to evening 8:00PM. We enter the home and horros of horrors the home has been takeover by ants. The whole sofa is teeming of insect life. And the reason - Sanju. She hid her half eaten bikki under the clothes that had be neatly folded. Oh gal what a hidding place . Leave alone dusting the sofa and sweeping the whole hall, I was laughing all the time.My little booboo is making me work a lot more than I asked for. Well actually Sri did the dusting, I just did the brooming. Booboo please take into consideration that your mom already has her extra large plate full of work. Kindly inform me before you give additional work . But I thoroughly enjoyed this act though I didnt like getting bitten by the ants.

Morning: Sanju once again asks for a bikki. Having had one bad experience of allowing her have the biscuit alone todayI am following her around. Still she finds a way to lose her bikki. Now I am petrified, I dont want a repeat of yesterday. So I ask her Sanju where is the bikki (bikki enga Sanju).She takes me along with her and shows it right there on top of sofa where she had placed it yesterday. Hmmm gal Thank Goodness you remembered.
PS:- Sanju has many hiding spots in our home and in my parents place. We have so far unveiled 3 places :- 1. Our home sofa, prepferable in between all her toys / clothes.
2. The empty space behind the wooden showcase.
3. The gap between the rest and sit area in the sofa at my parent's place.

The baby gal turns mother

Sanja turns into mother hen !! Yesterday night we (S, mil, fil , sil , sanja , kicha ( sil's almost 2 month old son)) were having some discussion in the hall. S went to get the fruits for the night-banana. Sanja doesn't eat them, she is in borderline of whether to taste it or not and mostly gives up the banana. So yesterday she took mine, peeled the skin and was feeding me :P. She was asking me to take bites like I tell her to eat food. The other baby didn't want to be left out. He found that his akka was having something interesting and was rearing to get it to his mouth. Watching the 2 kids , we were laughing at the attics. Sanja then reminded me again - Amma aah( a-um) vangiko ma.. sappidhu ma. It sent us into another peals of laughter. Finally she got fed up with my slow eating and herself made pieces out of it and fed them into my mouth. Blessed me !!! I was all smiles. How much of a mother she is to me? She then proceeded to put the skin in the dustbin and wa

Pathiyam samayal

Food specially prepared for a new mother . If you are a Brahman and a Tambram at it, you would have heard these words in a household that has just been blessed with a new -born baby. The food items prepared under this category is mainly meant for the new mother, to help her out in recovering from the internal wounds that she would have after the delivery. The main ingredients used for flavouring are pepper, pepper and some more pepper, ladles of ghee, salt. It is the post-natal care for both the new mother and the baby, making sure they don't suffer from indigestion. Nowadays , however, either due to the lack of support system( elderly people or parents) many of us just about take the normal food we have during normal times. But you can actually feel the difference the specially prepared food has compared to the normal diet we follow.   The options one has for this particular food preparation might be a tad bit limited, but with new experiments you can prepare a variety of d

My thoughtful daughter

Sanja had been to a wedding yesterday with her maternal grandparents. She had a great time playing my father's friend 's grandkids.  She behaved like a very good girl and ate without much fuss. The curds were served in Matkas (small earthern cups). Sanja at once declared that she will take her cup back home for her mother. She made granny clean it up and took hold of it as priced possession. When everyone asked her why she is taking it with her , her reply  Amma paint panuva, papa amma ku kuduka poren. (Amma will paint it, Iam going to give it to her) . The background , she saw me painting the Diyas for Karthigai deepam this wednesday. She kept asking me Amma , painting pannare ya ma (Amma are you painting). and remembered to get that earthern pot fo me . Ahhh, gal, I learnt from you today, though the gifts can be small, they will be priceless when given with sooooo much of love.  Hugs to you Darling !! PS: Iam gushing with joy and pride that my daughter is so very thou
