God took the strength of a mountain,
The majesty of a tree,
The warmth of a summer sun,
The calm of a quiet sea,
The generous soul of nature,
The comforting arm of night,
The wisdom of the ages,
The power of the eagle’s flight,
The joy of a morning in spring,
The faith of a mustard seed,
The patience of eternity,
The depth of a family need,
Then God combined these qualities,
When there was nothing more to add,
He knew His masterpiece was complete,
And so,

He called it … Father!

my fav place to eat in mumbai is Cafe Basilico in Bandra. have been there 10+ times in last 2 years and food has been awesome almost every time. kudos to Farhan Azmi and Ayesha Takia for creating and managing it so nicely.

my dream wedding… well, i dreamt of different kind when i was a kid but the one i had was better than any dream/fantasy i had of my wedding. it was stressful in the right places and fun in rest. loved the whole jingbang when i look back at it. it’s more than 2 months now that i am married and i love every second of it.

Isn’t he so adorable? I really wanna have one of these as my pet. anyway, I already have a this cute guy here till I get my hands on a real one

2009 was a year of changes and this was taken somewhere in the midst of it.

this is photo of me with my best friend ever! and everytime i see it, it makes me nostalgic, it was taken years back but it always feel like yesterday.

It happened years back, and it was with someone who I am today happily married to. guess i have all the right reasons to be happy and married.

although there were long months of talk over the phone before we had this date so technically it would not be the first one. but it was the very first time i was going to meet him. let me tell you what was so perfect about the date – it was simple and honest. there were no over hyped gestures – flowers – gifts etc but he was thoughtful in little details as to how do i like my food and drinks, how i like to spend my time, what kind of music i like to listen to. we did not do extravagant stuff like dining out / partying / etc but we connected – we sat together in private but special dinner date and we talked. and we talked some more. I was direct and he was honest in responding and there was this strange spark in the air. We did not need fireworks to announce it, it was evident with ever so slight touch of fingers here and there. we bonded. we made love with words and thats how our journey began. That day onwards , I knew he was the one. I still know he is the one for me. Its already 3 years down that date and I am more in love today than I was yesterday.

frankly, I couldn’t have asked for anything more from a first date and it was oh-so-perfect. well at least – perfect for me.

It was a Sunday and a holiday for Hubby. Went to aksa beach with family and made sandcastles for fun. on our way back, had dinner at China Ming and had my most favorite dish – ever. its called Sparkling Spinach. Not something very healthy – i know. but i guess i am allowed a treat here n there if i am a good girl the whole week when it comes to healthy eating.

yum food indeed. off to sleep satisfied.
