B'lore paani poori!!

Among all food items, foodies like me are fond of junk food. I don't know whether its hygienic or not, I consider it as the ultimate food. When ever I am feeling low or depressed, in order to get rid of that state, I just enjoy eating chaats or any other junk food. To top the list would always be Pani puri or golgappas or tikkias, .. however you call it, the ultimate street food I believe. When I recall my bitsian days, we used to have a jaunt to Noothan by bicycles which was quite a few metres away from my hostel, we would spend that evening by eating golgappas, aloo tikka, and we used to have a great masthi over there. And when I recall my days at STC,hyd...this might sound insane but almost on every weekend or of course on some alternate weekdays we used to go out to Anand theatre (exactly in front of that theatre, there is a pani puri wala), in Begumpet for having golgappas.I love eating there and now, yeah I miss it.

Though Bangalore is famous for its own food items like Idly, Dosa, Vada, rotti etc., I am fortunate enough to see a lot many pani puri wala's in the city. But I had golgappas rarely in bangalore why because here, these people mix onions in the chaat masala and thus, I don't feel like tasting it.Yesterday when I went for giving my cell in Nokia care, he said that he would take some time to get it repaired and asked me to come back. So, we thought of wandering for couple of minutes, we found Bake magic near ICICI bank and went in, there pani puri looked really yummie, I could not control myself and (yeah why should I, anyways) tempted badly and had there..I loved it. And finally now I got a place to have pani puri again, so I again continue my old style of having it everyday. :) :) Eat and Enjoy!!!!

Few Acknowledgements:

I would like to thank Sridevi for accompanying me to Bake magic yesterday and spending her precious time in having pani puri. I am grateful to the person who gave me pani puri in a clean and green plate. And finally I love myself for finding a paradise of panipuri (Bake magic).

What's Wrong??

Every day while leaving office, we (I & Sridevi) have to catch either a bus or a cab to our home which is located near BTM reliance fresh. As our office is in electronic city and its been an extremely busy zone, there are mostly heavy vehicles carrying spare parts & materials, a 20-seated bus jam packed with some 200 people in it, there are no zebra crossings or signals which makes it all the more horrible to walk to reach forth.

One fine day, as usual, we somehow managed to cross the road and we stood waiting for the stupid 600 BUS. There, we must have looked like tiny specks in front of those huge good carriers and vehicles., a Cab stopped right before us. I was wondering if he had a change of mind and was going to turn or do something else. I looked up the vehicle to see the driver's face through the glass window. He was waiting there and gesturing me to walk on. I stood for an instant, puzzled, then with a grateful smile on my face (thinking that he will say “No”) and asked him “Bhaiyya, BTM??” To my surprise, he welcomed us into his cab, he did not let any others inside, he did not halt it even a single time also, he played cool and lovely songs from Gangster as well…, and yeah, at that time, I got a call from my boy friend….the conversation was….

Cherry: Madhu, are you busy???

Me: nothing, I just got into Cab and I am on the way to my home..

Cherry: Are you crazy??Don’t go by cabs in the evening times, you never know…what happens and you are new to this city "Bangalore"…so, going by cabs especially for girls...it not safe and secure!!!any how…I suppose…, you are half intelligent.., you would have a company of few more guys with you…

Me: I just shut my mouth and I didn’t speak a word….I am sorry yaar…I am alone..sorry again, we are alone!!

Cherry: Oopz….Who are “we”??

Me: please don’t make me scared….here “We= myself and Sri”

Cherry: (oh..this girl is stupid again, every time here and then, she will come up with a new hurdle).Okay, don’t you worry…Did you see the Cab num or something???
Me: I cannot ask him to stop and it looks awkward if I get down and go for jotting his cab number. :P

Cherry: hmm enough of sarcasm…don’t be scared and don’t be stupid any more…Take care dear….will catch you in couple of minutes.
[She is my girl…, at least she is good at escaping... :P ]

Me: haha,,.It’s just 5:45 PM…..nothing will happen… (God, help us…we both are lovely and poor :P :P).bubye…
(Forget about cherry, I am not talking about him..)

Then... why is there so much of mistrust or uncertainty among people. Everyone on the world is a stranger to one another. It looks like, it is not safer to trust a stranger than someone we have known over a considerable period of time. I am pathetic when it comes to judging people.., I somehow end up thinking that all are good and nice. Then, why do they create situations which threats a relationship?! We are social beings and there will be communication at certain levels. So, What’s wrong in having “Trust” on others???

Here, we reached BTM in around some 40 minutes. Thank god, he safely dropped us and adding to it, he refused taking money when I was trying to give him 50 bucks. We both were shocked and stood placid for few minutes and concluded that “The easier it is: to live in this world, though I am not sure what happiness or sadness..give all your love and affection to people and surely, they would not forget it..,”. In much simpler terms: “If you are nice to people.., definitely they will be nice and they treat you well in return…!!”. We smiled, thanked and said him “We love you, Bhaiyya!!” and thus we left.

What do I write??

Being absolutely jobless and vetty, especially when I am alone, sometimes and that too for too longtime.....It really SUCKS!! At least if I had company (the right one, of course! :P), I probably would not realise...This drives me crazy...I have tried each and everything to kill time and now I am badly running out of things to do!! I wanted to ramble on, as usual, about some random crap, again to kill time and I could not even figure out a topic, to write about...Life on bench is getting so monotonous and boring......


May be I should get some books to read and enlighten myself which I never attempted this kind of stuff before....!! May be I have to involve in self-learning about WPF(so called project..I got here!!)....!! or May be I do discover some proxies to open ORKUT or INDYAROCKS to surf over .....

My happiness is because of you......

You are the one .....

who warms my soul,

who lifts up my spirits,

who softens my mind,

who soothes my heart,

who brightens my days,

who dances in my dreams,

who lingers in my thoughts,

who makes me smile and smile,

who accepts and treats me as I am.......,



who guides me in the dark,

who hears my deep feelings,

who holds me wid gentle hands,

who fills joys throughout my life,

who walks with me even in hurdles,

who makes my life so precious and cherishable,

who wins my heart, my breath, my love and my soul....!!!!!!!!

Monday Morning ..!!

After a hectic scheduled and pretty busy weekend, here comes the beautiful day, MONDAY. Why does it have to be Monday again? Wasn’t it just Monday the other day or something???

I don't know why but I hate Monday from my childhood. Of course, People I know have complained // have been complaining the same thing - but MY Papa always says: Welcome a Monday morning with smile and pleasure. :P

My first words after getting up are "Monday should not be a working day Sri…What say??!!". Then her response was: "Maddy!!You told the same thing on Friday morning also :) :)". On the way to my office....When I was sitting in the cab and looking at the routine things, I was really surprised to hear some strange words from backies(people sitting back to me!!).."It’s the time of week again. This week should be a perfect. Well let’s follow some tips for the week” and you know there was a list that goes like...plan the week, listen to the past, aware of the news and blah!!

There, I started reacting at each tip. Think positive being an optimist.. :) :)

1. Plan your week: I guess planning the week may add excitement to the moodyMonday morning. And yeah, it triggers all the days in a week to “Busy” status.

2. Listen to the past: Actually I am not much into this, so I don’t have any idea about this tip.

3. Aware of the news: May be this tip is followed by many but I never do. That's another irrelevant thing.

I don’t want to follow any sort of this crap but I just want to create for myself a mindset about Mondays. Hope, next time I will come up with a wonderful medicine for a mighty Monday.

Hi chocolate lovers...!!

All about chocolates!!

Chocolate has long been associated with passion and love. Its Latin name, Theobroma, means “food of the Gods.” There are many events that go into the history of chocolate and for chocolate fans, the journey gets all the more exciting with each advanced chocolate version. Since centuries, chocolate has been welcomed with smiles.From the first bitter drink to a refined version of chocolate, the world of chocolate lovers has many chapters to reveal and amuse itself. However, chocolate by any name tastes just as delicious and rich as the name goes…

Chocolate truffles....Truffles are simple, elegant candies that let the true flavor of good-quality chocolate shine. Traditionally, these are formed into small balls and rolled in cocoa powder, giving them a rustic look reminiscent of their fungal namesakes. These can also be dipped in chocolate or formed in candy molds for a more finished look. Over all available truffles, I go for chocolate malt,caramel,dark chocolate,black forest and hazel nut melt away truffles.

Chocolate fudge recipes....Fudge is a popular candy with seemingly endless variations. Fudge recipes vary widely, but most call for chocolate, sugar, butter, and milk or cream. Other common additives include marshmallow fluff, flavored extracts, and chopped nuts.

Chocolate Fruit Candies ....Chocolate and fruit are a natural combination. Fresh fruit is divine when dipped in chocolate, and dried fruit can add a great texture and flavor boost to all manner of chocolate candies. This is what I can say about chocolate fruit candy. and yeah, here comes my favourite...

Chocolate Nuts....Because sometimes you feel like a nut! Nuts are a great addition to chocolate fudge, truffles, bark, and more. There is an easy way to add a slightly savory taste and crunchy texture to smooth, rich chocolate. I generally love Belgian chocolate nuts.

Now, here is a good news for all dark chocolate lovers. Cadbury India Ltd. recently announced the launch of CADBURY BOURNVILLE FINE DARK CHOCOLATE, the first dark chocolate product from the much-loved Cadbury India basket. Made from the finest ingredients, each individually presented CADBURY BOURNVILLE FINE DARK CHOCOLATE is an irresistible in-the-mouth delight specially created to savour the Indian palate. And with 44% cocoa from the world’s finest Ghana beans and an ever so smooth texture, each little chunk is dark and undeniably good.A natural source of anti-oxidants, CADBURY BOUNRVILLE FINE DARK CHOCOLATE just makes us feel good about giving in to our chocolate cravings. Dark Chocolate acts as a mood-booster and is loved by because of its rich taste and intrinsic health.

According to me...Nothing can be compared to the experience of tasting a delectable bar of chocolate. And "Nine out of ten people like chocolate. The tenth person always lies..." :) :) . And I also believe that Chocolate does not mean "food of the Gods" and rather it is "God of the foods...!!" because of its delightful and yummy taste.
