Pittod - Childhood Nostalgia

As a child I looked forward for this pile of yummies. Mom with her Gujju neighbours influence makes some amazing Gujju dishes like Undhiyo, Dhokla...khandavi etc. Pittod as we call it was my favourite always. And nobody can make it like my Mom...i still remember how she burnt her fingers to spread it when it was super hot as once it's cold, the paste doesn't spread.
Today when I made it as weekend special in lockdown, it took my back to how me and my brother gobbled it in seconds. We didn't have fancy pizzas and Chinese at home those days, but we never missed variety!
This lockdown time is going to be the nostalgia our kids they will carry with them all their life! However crazy they might look today, when we look back. This is going to be the best family time ever! And next year, when these come in my facebook and Google photos memories, we will fondly remember it.

Matka Kulfi!

Maharajs Matka Kulfi was 'WORLD FAMOUS' in my small town. And every summer vacation our night-drives drove us to this amazing delicacy after dinner.
For years together, the founder of it- Chenna maharaj brought me my special Kulfi while the others enjoy their regulars. I fondly remember him running to our car with my special before he preps up for others. The warmth with which he served me that was not less than a own family member(As I say.. I am blessed!!)
So what was so special about mine?
It didn't have dry fruits!! Yes! I hate it when in the middle of the smooth creamy heavenly icecream I get a nut or a raisin! So for nuts like me, he kept a few plain kesar Kulfis.
And the history repeats itself. Avani hates dry fruits crumbling inside her ice-creams and I have to prepare TWO SPECIALS for her and me now. I still remember Chenna Maharaj fondly whenever I enjoy my SPECIAL! Some things in life you will always remember with a smile!

Avani's dose of the day! 5G

Why do we take pride in our work??
Here is a small incident:
Internet wasn't working for a few minutes yesterday night at my home. So we were trying to troubleshoot the issue.
Husband: Are we connected to the right network? It seems some issue!
Avani(8 yr old): Dad why don't you connect to the 5G network. 5G works much better than the usual one.
Me: Avani why is 5G better?
Avani: Mom, It has better speed! Better connectivity! Doesn't disconnect often! If you are inside the room, nothing better than 5G!
Avani has no clue I work for 5G or what exactly 5G networks bring to the table. But look at how we touch day to day life of people. They experience better speed, better connectivity and without the fancy abbreviations also it is what the future awaits!!
