Blogging challenges I attempted. Hoping to keep writing!
I was a bit lazy and wanted a new title for this letter. And since my friend was also equally lazy we both decided to do guest posts for it. So here is a post from K for Kishor who blogs at Blind Man’s Bluff And here is where his A-Z series begins as well……
Any Chennaiite who has visited Fruit Shop On Greams Road would have seen this drink. Either on the menu or atleast one person ordering it in front of them. For me it was my brother who introduced this drink to me. It is a thick milkshake which has an icecream base and a lot of…
If you are one of those people who is not a fan of icecream but somehow ended up in my friends list, please unfriend me immediately and go far far away from me. I don’t need that kind of negativity in my life. Scraped you knee? Have some icecream. Got low marks in your favorite…
Yup! I am talking about Nutella. And no.. I will not put it out for the letter N. N has something else coming up. So now its just this wonderful Hazelnut spread. I don’t remember when I first tried it out. But I just remember the spread being so yummy that I put just a…
When I was in college, there used to be this wonderful little fast food joint right next to my hostel. I used to eat there everyday. Pretty much my only meal for that day. Not that I was broke or anything… My hostel food sucked to the extent that I wouldn’t eat anything apart from…
Who doesn’t like fried chicken? Being the most popular fast food probably in the whole world, I don’t think there are many who won’t like it. The crunchy, fatty pieces of proteins – certainly not that healthy food is a bit of a nice comfort food. Good enough to make you binge eat and bad…
Okay the title might make one raise a lot of questions. And no… I do not make the proper English Breakfast with beans and all. But then who doesn’t enjoy a nice heavy breakfast? English Breakfast generally includes bread toast, eggs(scrambled or sunny side up), sausages, beans, mushroom and roasted tomatoes finally finishing the heavy…
As I was looking for the perfect food item that would fit D, I came across dimsum. Well Dimsum is a chinese dish. I have hardly tried it out and was hesitant. Then a quick visit to the wiki page made me understand that Momo is the Tibetian name for the same dish. It is…
According to Wikipedia comfort food is something that is characterised by its high caloric nature, high carbohydrate content or the simple preparation. Thachi mammu as lovingly called by all is the perfect example for comfort food. It is starchy, has a lot of calories, can be made easily and could be eaten with almost any…
Of course I am going to write about Briyani. What other food could be written for this alphabet? I mean there are a lot of foods out there. But when it comes to comfort food, this mixed masala-spicy rice item tops it. Any muslim guy/girl you spot will have atleast one guy/girl in their group…
Now this wasn’t in my food chart until I was in college. After seeing some commercial my mother decided that she is going to feed me almonds so that at least my bones will be strong enough. (She has osteoporosis) And after that I started making it a habit to have soaked almonds first thing…
I had previously decided not to participate in the A-Z Challenge. Due to my wonderful history last two times. Especially last year where I finished it by December. But then two days back I was just asking around if any of my pals were going to do it and suddenly it struck me. I can…
So this will be the last post of the series. Finally I made myself finish something I started off (even though its the end of 2016 and I was supposed to get to this post by April 30th) But that is alright. I have to juggle between multiple stuff as it is and this…
Okay just two more posts! Blind Side: Another one of those feel good movies. The story of Michael Oher being accepted into a happy family and how goes on to become a rugby player (or is it called football?) No matter what sort of mood you are in, this movie will definitely put you in…
Charlie’s Angels: Well pretty much everyone would have seen this absolute gem on K TV in Tamil. Specifically the dubbing was the best part in this movie. Every dialogue would sound even funnier and sleazier in the tamil version. K TV used to have this program at 7pm every sunday where they discuss some recent…
