- Firstly, I would like to thank Arignar Anna for having supposed to have turned 100 today. The TN government has declared a holiday and I am feeling really really glad about that ! No Monday blues this week. Phew !
- My internal exams got over last week and currently, I feel like as though I am enjoying my semester holidays
- Watched 3 movies last week
1) Saroja – Nice movie. Cliched storyline but refreshing treatment
2) Rock On – Second half was awesome ! Loved Arjun Rampal, Purab and the girls
3) The Kite Runner – You can skip the second half of the movie if you have already read the book. Watch the first half for ‘Hassan’. (Please do watch all the scenes in which the Pashtuns dance
)
- My favourite songs, at present are : Phir Dekhiye (Rock On), I’m Yours (Jason Mraz), Maula mere (Anwar), To Phir Aao (Awarapan) and Run (Snow Patrol)
- Swat, I loved every bit of your loooooong letter
Your letter made my day, girl ! Thanks
- For the first time in my life, I watched a basketball match
I watched it only because a good friend of mine was a part of the game.
- The past four days were awesome ! Did a lot of catching up
- Braying horrible indipop songs with Laksh till about 3 A.M gets me all hyper !
- Tank-top is one of THE best places in the world
- Had a couple of crazy conference chats with Sharan and Shrey. Reminds me of the good old twelfth standard holidays

- Went for a really long drive yesterday morning with my dad ! One of the best long drives EVER ! I never knew Coimbatore housed such beautiful roads !
- I managed to cook a decent full-fledged lunch for my dad yesterday comprising of murungakkai vethakozhambu, potato curry and thakkali rasam.
Dad’s say (An excerpt from the conversation he had with Mom)- I had dhaniya containing vethakozhambu, konjam extra pulippu rasam, charred jeera containing properly cooked potato curry and overcooked rice for lunch today.
Mom – Does this girl know that dhaniya seeds aren’t methi seeds ?
He gave me a decent 7 on 10. For a first-timer, it is decent, yes. I loved my vethakozhambu
All hail Khatarnaak Langoor ! Have a great week ahead people
P.S – Windmills are a treat to watch
Coimbatore, Did I see Coimbatore in here. Tell me about it. Coimbatore sure has good roads
.
murungakkai vethakozhambu, potato curry and thakkali rasam – I miss Mumma’s food thanks to your post
. Murungakkai vethakozhambu goes really well with nalla yenai !!
regards
VC
I DO have the Kite Runner movie..will definitely watch it this week. I couldn’t help but think of your Flickr Tag as I read the windmills postscript
Wish you had stayed longer for the crazy conference yest
All hail Arignar Anna
Unfortunately we had college today, and internals to boot. Was ROTFLing over the Khatarnaak Langoor thingy
All the best with the cooking…I’m sure you would not have screwed up like me, putting the arisi and paruppu together into the same cooker-patharam, like I did all those years back
@ VC –> Are you a Coimbatore-vaasi too ?? Because I noticed Coimbatore in your posts as well !! I love vethakozhambu with anything !! I can eat Vazhai-thandu only when Vethakozhambu is being served along with it. Otherwise, my food pipe will reject Vazhai-thandu
@ Sharan –> Stupid connection of mine Sharan
Aryan would ve told you about that, i guess. I am really really sorry
@ Suchi –> You should have seen me during that chat session. I was laughing out loud when these guys were ‘langooring’
Arisi and paruppu in the same pathram ? Lol !! The result must have been edho-oru form of paruppu saadham !
Nithya,
. Vazhaika Thandu usili ! Oh man !! it goes best with Rasam !!
I am a coimbatore-vaasi too.. As i was born and brought up there.
regards
vc
Amma was kind enough to call it bisi-bele-bath.
@ VC –> That is vaazhai-poo parupu-usli
Wow ! So you are a Coimbatore vaasi too
@ Suchi –> How did you like it ?
\m/
We ll give away paw prints as autographs.
Conference chats rule.
I’m really glad you liked the letter Nith. I did made it up for the late reply huh?
Yes, I’m a bad bad daughter. But i like it this way 
I really love the Maula Mere song.
You know what? when mom’s not around, I make dad cook for me
Conferencing is like licking on a ice gola on a hot summer noon. Sorry for the bad comparison.
Nithya,
. Yep, I am from Coimbatore. I did part of my education there. Studied from Shri Nehru Vidyalaya !!
Oh yeah , I got carried away with food
regards
VC
Random one this,
Do you have to wear that white lab coat?
@ Sharan –>
Suber idea !
@ Swat –> YOu think that comparison is bad eh ?
Conference chats ARE like colourful ice lollies on a sunny day !
@ VC –> Ah ! That is nice
@ Bar –>
Vetti peebils we all are
@ Swat –> Yes, yes. But my white labcoat has streaks of blue, red, yellow and black on it
ROFL at ‘khatarnaak langoor’.. when is the monkey metal releasing? would love to have a sneak peek
Thank goodness I entered here,got some names for the band.I was thinking about mentallica for mine
..the recipe sounded mouth watering,not sure how the end result looked though
.
@ Iyer –> Ask the band members about it Iyer
I have no clue ! Am waiting to listen to them ‘oohh–aak’ too
@ Nautankey –> Hey there ! Thanks for dropping by
I really like your pseudonym ‘nautankey’
‘Mentallica’ is nice ! Do you make music ?
Erm.. the end result looked pretty south-indian-meal’ish’
ROTFL… Soober conf that.. And paw prints.. lol o lol..
