Yesterday, we went to pick up Sid’s report card at school. He goes to 3rd Grade. It was a mundane affair, he got A+ in all. That was expected. His teacher even commented that we should not have come personally, and she could have emailed the report to us; the result being so predictable. Most … Read More →
The traditional, vegetarian Bangalore Darshinis are the best places to have piping-hot morning breakfast. They serve South Indian food, and I love to eat the fluffy idlis, crispy wadas, and yummy dosas along with a hot cup of filter coffee.

It is a true story of successes through struggles, … Read More →
There is something so wonderful about having brothers and sisters. I was lucky to have a younger brother and elder sister. She was always this anchor, my brother and I, turned to in times of need. In school, she helped us fend off bullies. At home, she protected us from mom and dad’s anger. She … Read More →

Professionally, we find so many more women in the workplaces leading good careers and generally in control of their lives. Personally too, they are at much better positions. Living … Read More →
