Contrast to last weekend! yay!

Thursday was a family outing and we went to the Mall of Emirates.It was huge and for those familiar with City Center in Dubai, I am talking about a mall about 3 times that size.The shops etc are much the same but as usual the crowd was putting off which is why Sahara n Al Ghurair are the best! Appreciate the parking and the designing of this place. Hoping to try out the “Ski Dubai” attraction there soon!
Oh!”Ski Dubai”, yes we can go Skiing in this desert !!sounds wheee huh?!!Once I experience I shall update about it being worth it or not! The idea is I have never done it ever in my life, so what so ever the experience might be I might be wrong with the “worth” part!

The best part about dinner was Fried rice, I ate much more than I thought I could!i didn’t quite enjoy the rotis n curry.

Friday was Fun…..woke up pretty late n made lunch-Puri n Chole ,lazed in the afternoon n then met JJ, in the evening, after almost a month! It really seemed ages since we hung out together. Though she made me wait quite a bit ,the evening made it all worth !We hung out in the local City Center n the crowd freaked us out ,so we got out of the place one she was done with her purchase and then went to Sahara. The place had this new interior design shop called MARINA. Amazing material, great stuff to decorate be it lamps, lanterns, pillows, dining table decorative and the sofa sets and bedroom models would make you want to set them in a palace!

Anyways, after browsing their book store we settled for Italian dinner of Lasagna with garlic bread and Pizzas with coke! Dessert was the Baskin Robbins’ Praline pleasure shake.Yummy!

I was home earlier than I thought I could make it and as I went to bed, it really felt ok to get into the new week.

Oh! I spoke to VGC in the afternoon ,it felt nice to catch up after a while.He described JA’s wedding n we had a good laugh about a few details.

Happy Married life, JA!

And if you have noticed, my weekends have been terribly inconsistent and if make a graph ,it will look like a horizontal 'S'!

Suddenly I feel there's time in my hands....the following thoughts cross my mind... - that model on the cover looks awesome, how is that so? - if they actually airbrush pictures , then how come there is a good looking category? - i want to see a brand new juice in the market,tired of the same old ones... - i feel like shopping often.its more a thought than action. - i like clothes that some other women wears...i want stuff like those! - how come there is traffic only when i want to drive? - water is good for me, very good....keep drinking..has anyone tried flavored water? - is flavored water as good for health? - how come some advertisements are soooo good? is it just one person or a team? - when everyone is busy how come i have time? - how is it that my phone rings only when i want to sleep or when i am occupied? - why do i get tanned so quickly? - how come technology is always surprising to me? - why didn't i get into sports or music when i was younger? - why is it that some ...

Rare Snow day! 01/10/2021

 After a grilling 2020, 2021 started out with a mixture of emotions - grim but hopeful, distant from family but long WhatsApp calls, rainy but looking forward to the sunshine in the coming days. A lot of R&R is how we started our New Years, thanks to the long weekend. We read, watched tv, cooked and slept a lot!  Once work started, it didn't even feel very different from the past few weeks. Unfortunately a few days into the first working week, there was chaos in the DC Capitol and many State Capitols. A riot started by an infuriating and possibly out-of-work men and women wanting to display their passionate support of an incapable President. Back to feeling uncertain and grim about the future, we were surprised by Mother Nature providing us a rare snow fall day here in Austin, TX! It was simply amazing and a great 2nd Sunday of the year where we got 3.5-4 inches of snow ! The sights were remarkable during and after the snow fall. The entire city and neighbors were thrilled...

Fun weekend trip!!

South Lake Tahoe (Nevada) was our adventure trip this Saturday, about a 4 hr drive from where we live. we started early and until halfway i put my driving skills to test! the tuf time was for my hubby, not me...i was just glad at the opportunity!! :-)So i survived till Sacremento( i didnt know it was capital of CA). 2nd half of the drive was mainly on winding roads around the mountains while elevating yourself upto 7000ft! it was amazing as you get a scenic view of mountains n the lake below! awesome!! Once we entered the resort we first got a booking for para sail...I must admit from a distance it did look a bit too wild and so-not-like-me venture...but then the whole idea was to explore and try out new things...so went for it - from the 3 different heights of 400/800/1200ft we chose 800ft! i cudnt believe it myself, but i was in for it. so we walked around the beach area n enquired abt jet skiing while waiting for the parasail call.they made a group of 3 (a mother-daughter, a coupl...
