Today when baba ate my typical bengali "bandhakopi r tarkari" for lunch and said I made it like his mom used to, it's a huge compliment and blessing. Especially because I learnt from my mother inlaw who learnt from her mother inlaw. Back when I was 13 and made bhindi for the first time, nanna (dad) said the same thing that it reminded him of his mom's (nannamma) vanta (haath ka khana).. although my grandma passed away when I was 3 and whatever I cooked that day was from my own heart's recipe. Besides sarees the only other personal favorite I can pass to my nextgen is everything I learnt from amma and ma. Today early morning I dreamt of having chai with Niveditha in our previously owned gurgaon apartment. I don't care where, but certainly Nivi ke saath chai would be an amazing moment. I think the dream is a consequence to her traffic wala post from yesterday! Agar mera ek aur sapna sach hona chahoongi, that's my dream to do saree (and only saree) modeling . Bachpan se shauk tha modeling ka, kabhi poora nahi hua. Model wale looks nahi the na. Khair chodo. I loved all the khadi sarees from Darbaar movie and I realized I dont have a ponduru khadi saree in my collection, so although I wasnt planning to, I settled for this begumpuri saree to enjoy chai, kurkure with Ma and watch our favorite TV shows the Kapil Sharma show and Dance Plus. All cottons to me are "indoor sarees" nowadays. The weather here although not snowing doesnt favour cottons a lot. Smirk. 🙏🙏 Annadhatha sukhi bhava 🙏🙏 Ghar bhaite World Tour! Dakho mein kahan kahan chali gayi (pic in comments). Patideb asked if I need more tours I said, nahi bhai.. bahut zyada jetlagged hoon, do din lagenge recovery mein.
