A dinner @ Shimla without a cabbage.

Today, I came home to witness the most horrifying thing that i have seen lately. Patta gobhi. Cabbage. Can you believe it ?? That too, done in the worst possible way !
So, decided to make a delicacy myself. As always short of stuff at home when such times come, opened the fridge to see only some shimla mirchis, and nothing else ! So, it was decided, I would do up the shimla mirchi and Raghu would take care of the salad and the dessert. Then I cooked the shimla mirchi with online-all-the-time expert tips from mom.
Then came the worst part, I gave into patience, and burnt the delicacy !!! Which actually tasted good !!!
2 contradicting points learnt today :
1. Never lose patience while cooking.
2. A little burnt food, infact, tastes splendid ! :)
By this time, Raghu, never losing his patience, slowly and steadily kept on stirring the milk till it became basundi, then, some fruits in it, more wait for it to freeze for 10 mins and then a kicka$$ fruit basundi, as i would call it !!! Not to miss the beet-green mango-onion salad and Real orange juice to accompany !

All in all a sxeed up dinner I must say !

A (Hair) cut above the rest !

It was 1:30 in the afternoon. Scorching April Sun shining at its peak. 30 mins later it was gonna be a 2 hrs power cut. And I had a haircut pending. What better time than now to get a haircut ! So, off i went to F.C. road to get my hair cut. Dont ask me why F.C. road.

So, it turned out that it was lunch time for all the barbers there. I had to wait for atleast half an hour reading stupid magazines till my turn came. Changed. Got my hair shampooed. And sat for the cut. Now herez what happended next :


The Barber : So, sir, what kind of an hair cut would you like ?

Me : Nothing special, just trim around the edges and dont bother about the other hair, I am growing them.

The Barber : You are growing your hair ?

Me : Yes, Sir. (thinking whats wrong with that !)

The Barber : (After cheking the hair for a minute more) Sir, you dont need no haircut at all. Coz, if I cut around the edges, I will have to cut some more to level it.

Me : (Not bothering about the explanation that he gave abt his suggestion of not cutting my hair) You mean ... right now ... you wount cut my hair ? (now, thats wierd !!!)

The Barber : Yep Sir, If you had asked me before, I would have told you 30 mins before !

Me : Changed back, took my bike, and came back home !

Now, it is not every time your barber tells you thats theres no need for a hair cut ! isnt it !
