My First Post

The word "Story" is enough to fascinate an eight year old. I really don't know as to who invented the art of story telling but i guess it was a great way to polish the imagination and creativity of children. I can hardly recall having listened to any of those fairy-tale stories although i have a vague memory of reading them! It was just a passing thought when i first thought of making a blog where i could recreate the age-old art of story-telling in my own way. I can fairly say that i have a pretty good imagination power and i wont deny that i do refer to other people for better ideas but i will be duly crediting them for that! Please feel free to post your valuable comments for any of my articles. It will be a boost for me to write better! Thanks for taking time to read my first ever post.Enjoy reading!

I wrote this little story with a play in mind. Enjoy! Edit- Some of my posts are written in Hindi (Indian language). [Scene 1- Mr. Singh is seated at the dining table lost in deep thoughts. His daughter-in-law priya enters the room carrying dinner. ] Priya- Papaji please stop worrying about mummyji. Unka ilaaj toh karva rahe hai na hum log? Mr. Singh- Rehne de beta tu nahi samjhegi. You never will understand what I am going through right now. In fact no one will ever understand. Priya ( placing the dinner tray on the table) – Theek hai Papaji aapko nahi maanna naa sahi. Lekin kam se kam khaana toh kha lijiye. Warna aapke bete aake mujhe phirse sunayenge ki unke papa ka bilkul dhyan nahi rakhti. [Priya stamps her feet and leaves the room murmuring something to herself. Mr. Singh is still sitting there with lines of worry over his face and lost in deep thoughts.] [Scene 2- Mr. Singh’s son Deepak enters the room. He has just returned from office and is still hol...

The math and science of family cooking

Cooking can be enjoyable especially when it comes to family and children. Children tend to imbibe the basics of math and science while cooking! While cooking involves various errands, it is crucial to match them with the age and the aptitude of the children. Cooking may require some chores that grown-ups can maneuver, whereas other simple tasks would not be that complicated for the kids. It is advisable to survey the procedures and cuisine, beforehand so that it won’t be difficult to distribute chores evenly. So much so that the youngest kid gets to bathe vegetables or roll the dough.   One can make family cooking fun and safe by following these simple guidelines:   Only adults should have access to knives or similar sharp tools used for dicing, scraping or trimming. Always keep eyes on children working around hot stoves, microwaves and food processors. Adults should manage tasks such as simmering, adjusting stove heat or laying out the grill. Chi...

Stranger on the highway

Although this may seem to be a very common place title for a story i had a hard time choosing this one. And it seems to be the most appropriate to me. I had this story idea from our very own bollywood movies. LOL. Initially i had written it with the idea of a movie script. Hence the dialogues. Do leave in your comments for this one. I had to tax my brains for this one :-) The Stranger on the Highway…… Karan Oberoi is driving his black Mercedes on the dark highway… he is dressed shabbily and is homeward bound from a fresher party. He is slightly drunk and is having difficulty controlling the steering wheel. He sees a girl of about 22, dressed in a traditional suit, waving out to him as if asking for a lift. The car screeches to a stop. Karan pulls the window down.. he turns towards the window… facing the girl, who is bending down with an agitated expression.. Karan: Can I be of any help to you lady? Girl: Well yes. My car just broke down and I need to reach the city wi...
