THE BORING BLOG

 Hello everyone! Ki haal chaal?  I hope everything's good. Kya chal raha hai aaj kal, phir? Kuch na kuch toh chal he raha hoga.. You see, gossip is to the soul, what rabri is to jalebi. Coz uske bina kaam toh chal jayega, but rabri(gossip) se he toh MAZZA aata hai yaar! Some of you must be going through a breakup, or maybe 'planning' someone else's breakup. Some of you must be worried to hell about career and constantly thinking "mera kya hoga life mein"? (I'm some of you..) While others must be watching netflix all day long, sleeping for 12 hours a day and procrastinating things like a boss(I'm this too😢). But jo bhi ho raha ho, koi agar phone pe pooche ki 'kya chal raha hai aaj kal?', toh koi story toh sabke paas hoti hai. "Arey aaj pata hai kya hua?" So, I too have a story to tell. Something that hapened with me recently.. And by far the only happy thing in the last 1 year or so. First, a little flashback. Baat hai November 2020 k...

 " I don't catch feelings, I catch flights" "Be the best possible version of you" (with filters, of course) "Pumpkin, spice and everything nice" "Cause darling I'm a nightmare dressed like a daydream" "I woke up like this. #freshface #natural"   (#jhooth) Oof! I'm so glad I don't have to go through these cliched Instagram captions every other day. Yes, it's been an year since I quit Instagram, and believe me, it was the best decision of my life! I no longer have to see the same story whenever it rains or a new Avengers trailer is out. Nor do I have to spend hours looking for a perfect caption (which makes sense of course) to suit my posts. But, everything has its own pros and cons, right? Apart from my general detest for all social media, I deleted my Instagram account for 3 primary reasons-: 1) YEH SAB MOH MAAYA HAI- It was the time I realized that everything, literally everything on social media is fake. Whether it...

 Hi everyone.  How are you all? Does anyone know what a landline is? It's basically a device used to make calls, but the only difference is, that you have to remember all the numbers! More than a communication device, it's used as an address proof in Indian households.  See, it's almost never used to call people. Only when all your options are exhausted, then you use the ultimate option- LANDLINE.  However, there are 2 exceptions to this. One being my very own mother, and the other was my nani. Just like any other mother- daughter, they both used to talk hours on the phone with each other! Nani, telling her what she had made, what's the hot news in town, which relative had a child, which one got married and what not! My mother, on the other hand, gave her all the updates about Delhi. Oh by the way, my mother belongs to small town in Haryana, about 200 km from Delhi. So that's why we used to visit nani only about 3-4 times an year.  And all these millions of hour...

 Hi! Kaise hain aap?  Kabhi gajar ka halwa khaaya hai aapne? I'm pretty sure khaaya he hoga.  You see, the thing about gajar ka halwa is its perfection.  The carrots have to be grated in such a way that they are neither too big, making the halwa taste like carrot cake, nor too fine, making it a puree.  The amount of sweetness has to be just adequate so that it doesn't overpower carrots' natural sweetness, but also tells us that it is a dessert. Now come the dry fruits. Different people have different specifications. Some like it with raisins to add a slight tanginess, while some like it with cashews because they enjoy the crunchiness.  You see, the thing about gajar ka halwa is its timing.  If, at all, it was eaten during summers or monsoon, it wouldn't have tasted half as good as it does in winter. It's just like the rasmalai of winters! Just imagine sitting in your blanket, and it's freezing outside! And then you have a bite of tempting hot gajar ka ...
