Yes we landed safely and were taken home by our son.
I slept during the flight so that I will come out of jet lag fast.

What is so great in getting along well with people

That one can live peacefully with people who have
different / opposing views is commendable!

The gummy bears!

His mother was at her wit's end,
The little boy would not amend; :whoo:

He hated the very sight of his potty,

He was extremely noisy and naughty; :Cry:

Nothing could make him budge,

Not even a Sundae or a fudge; :nono:

How can he enter into a play school

Unless he is ready for that school? :sad:

He was made an offer excellent,

By his parents who were intelligent;

Every time he uses his potty

A sweet was given to the naughty!

Every time he pees in his potty

A sweet was given to the naughty!

He got fully weaned from his diaper,

Who can resist this kind of an offer?

He uses potty every second hour,

Much to the relief of his mother!

The carrots to the end of a stick tied,

Never fails in its mission when tried!!!

How to mention those whose names you do not want to mention???

Use the words like "some people", " some one" "people" liberally!!!

They will hit their target alright and at the same time :evil:

your hands will remain clean and untainted!!! :angel:

.......... That one can live peacefully with people who have different / opposing views is commendable!

Could you live peacefully with your noisy neighbors?? :drum:

I AM living amidst noisy neighbors.
I will plug in my ears since I can't shut their mouths.

My son was very cute with lot of his quiet naughty episodes.. and he used to hate diapers.. he had to change the minute, he even thought he had wet it.. anyway, one day I just put him on the toilet to see what he does and not only he did his thing, but refuse to wear diaper after that... I tried to keep it on him that night but from next day I had to listen to him.. he was barely one year old.. same with drinking in a bottle, he just gave up the bottle once I put a small cup to his mouth, he refused the bottle, highly independent... )

Dr Renuka Madam

Am I correct - allergy is nothing but a reaction to the body owing to a
particular substance in the environment not suiting the body; can allergic
symptoms be analyzed from Sneezing and Wheezing or unusual
itches etc. Or is it due to pollution or environmental factors playing a
role in the development of allergic disorders.

Whether a surgery is required to remove a Cyst - but in many cases,
some Doctors say, may not be necessary unless it has blood, pus or
cell debris.

Sri. Manohar kumar, Greetings.

Personally I don't expect anything from God either. End of the day, what ever happens, we are going to face it anyway. So, why should we even expect anything from anyone?

I would live simply alright; but when someone say to me 'appreciate what you have!', that sounds funny to me. What i have is not a hand-out from anyone. I worked hard for what I have. So, there is no reasson for me to appreciate what I have and feel humbled about that.... We may as well desire more and work harder to get that. End of the day we are not going to carry anything with us; so, earn and enjoy what is available!

To forgive is an interesting thing!.. I hear this from everyone... 'forgive!'.. The truth is, one can't forgive unless the forgiveness is sought! One may forget on their own; but can't just 'forgive!', because it takes someone to seek forgiveness for the act of 'forgive' to happen. If that is the case, yes, 'forgive!'.

Cheers!

dear VR !
you have correctly said patient wife since she never grumpled to do those item .she expect only appreciating words(even if no appreciation ,at least thanks for her efforts).i am very lucky to have such wife (she may not say the same cos of my priorities).
guruvayurappan

Good for you..but we wives these days have no time even to hear any words of appreciation .... we just do what has to be done and do not expect any appreciating words too.
Just do our duty sorts.

I have no maid now cos foreign maids are not coming anymore here..so we have to share housework with husband.

Anyway I have a good tip how not to feel tied down by any extra housework..just say I am dead tired and wished I didn't have to do some task at home...I just tell myself that "God is going to be my guest at home now"..so automatically I will get up and finish off that task.

This a great way of finishing any work at home.

Expect more from God??

I do not think this is 100% right.
It will not make us happy.

Expectation is not total surrender.

We should totally surrender to God and leave everything to His Will.
Accept both the good and bad in our life.

Many people expect lots from God and when things go wrong they blame God and lose faith.

Expectation is DESIRE in a latent form.

Desire in any form latent or active binds us Karmically.

dear brahmanyan sir !
you over took me . i wanted to tell the same words to you. as you said my relative like to get feed back from me about the samayal & pleased my appreciation as if vashitar vayaal brahma rishi pattam .i comment will be frank & there will be appreciation for so so preparation. i am not mile apart & going in your parrallel lane. i am slave to palaghat type as well as tanjavur (kumbakonam )type. i like karnataka rayar uppattu (boli ),thove,saru and katupu etc.
guruvayurappan

Dear Sri Guruvayurappan,

You said it. To appreciate or criticize food preparation needs honesty.
Oh.yes, I never miss an invitation for food from Palghat (Kerala) people.
I like all the items in their Saththi. In Karnataka food, I have some reservations.
They add sweet -vellam in all their preparations, which is not to my liking. But
Kaay-Ubbattu, Holige, Bisi bele baath, kosumbari and chirotti are ever loved items.
Our cook is from Bidar district,North Karnataka, she makes different types of items
popular in her place. Jolada Rotti (Jowar roti), Enne kayi (Badane kaayi-Brinjal) palaya,
Akki Roti are her specialties. Of course Tanjavur tops in Tamil Nadu cuisine.

Warm Regards,
Brahmanyan,
Bangalore.

 

[nannilam_balasubramanian]

It may be easy to prepare food for festivals and certain events/functions at home,
where we give orders and take items from outside or make a lady to prepare at home.
But when we perform death ceremony or annual Srardham, special care is taken with
regard tor recipes, chiefly Pepper is used and not Red chilly. Only certain vegetables
are chosen (because people would have left fond vegetable when they visit Gaya/Kasi).
For.e.g. Oil Gingely Oil (Nalla Ennai). Even the daily used utensils are not
preferred (Main Stainless Steel).

1. Raw Banana 2. Bitter Gourd 3. Cluster Beans 4. Cucumber 5. Raw Mango
6. Ginger 7. Colocasia (Seppangkizhangu), 8. Banana or Mango fruit

Red Chilli, Thur dal, (Only Payatham paruppu) Green Chilli and Dhania are avoided.

The items generally are hal to serve initially, Payasam, Thayir Pachidi,
Vazhaikkai Curry, Bitter Gourd Puli Kootu, Kotavarangai Poritha Kuzhambu,
Rasam without Tomato, Karuveppilai or Pirandai Thuviyal, Inji Mangai Pickle,
and Patchanangal (Sweets & Savouries.)

dear madam !
it is true in many cases . even when babies are not for nappies and bottle ,we are not ready to ready to leave them free. we are always suspect that they may wet the bed and will not eat properly on their own .but when you allow them they are very routine and follow the steps.my 3 year grand daughters are expert in handling fork ,spoon and scissors and they prepare baby ooats drinks.they pickup their choice in yokurt variety & corn flakes .they paint water clour for cartoon without soiling their dresses .they are good in handling latest electronic gadgets .they understand the need for regular tooth brushing aswell as to avoid chocolates &ice creams

dear brahmanyan sir !
when i said we are running parrallel it applies to karnataka recipe also and i also not like adding vellam in cooking .that is why i mentioned about boli,saru etc. ask your

Bidar dist cook to prepare mango geer which is very tasty for swallowing the Jowar roti and chappathis when i was in Gadag i used to visit lingayat friends house and tasted jowar roti and mango geer .when i was in karnataka ,bangalorean will think that i am from north karnataka and the north kannadikas will think that i am from south karnatanaka. our tamil friends thinks i may be palaghat iyer.when i speak hindi ,my north indian friends will not acept that i am a tamilian .who am i ?
