This blog is our space to write about our thoughts, views and notes about our travels. Osho owned 90 Rolls Royces while being a Sanyasi …. The so-felt contradiction is very fascinating and hence the name !
Roti – All about Food. Kapda – All about Sarees. Makaan – All about our home, the Earth.
I wanted to go out for a ride with PYs in the morning and set the alarm as always for 5 am. I usually wake up without the alarm even and thought I will have sufficient time to get up and go for the ride. I woke up at 6.20 :):):) and yes was super … Read more
Finally we did join the Pedal Yatris today morning for a short ride. We got the bikes ready last night, the lights charged and woke up early enough, to join the ride. So many memories came back as we reached TP1… And then I called Rajesh because no one had reached, who told us to … Read more
I joined the “weight loss” program of the Sivananda Yoga centre in Gurgaon on Sept 20th. While I know everything about losing weight, but I know nothing about sustaining the weight loss :):). And I have always been a fan of Yoga because it’s a system that’s thousands of years old and just by that … Read more

Dear Appa, Guess what Amma did yesterday ? Went out for a walk late in the evening and while coming back a little boy on a cycle came out from between two cars and hit her. She fell down and has scratches all over … And a boxer’s shiner on her left eye. No she … Read more
Last evening we went out thinking we will take an auto and go to the market street of Yercaud. The one auto that stopped said he was on “water” duty so could not take us, and the person across the road with an Ambassador car came and offered to take us. What a good decision … Read more
Today we walked around trying to explore Yercaud a bit. It was a beautiful morning, a little nippy but slowly it got really warm. The club mahindra property is near the lake. It’s a collaboration with Hotel Lake Forest which was a villa in the 1800s. We walked early in the morning to Sri Saravana … Read more
Mom has a collection of Oomda, Dalda containers from nearly 40 years back. She gave me some when I got married and Krishnan managed to take the cover off one of them along with the neck 🙂 These are plastic containers. Oomda and Dalda were brands of Vanaspati or the now dreaded hydrogenated vegetable oil. … Read more
