Veg pulao khaungi
Hello, hello! I woke up craving some of the veg pulao that grandma used to make for my buas when they’d leave home — for sasural, kaam, trips, interviews, all that.

Must say no more often

Talking it out is good advice. I’m bad at it.
10:25 PM. Versova Starbucks. My spot on the big table. The word for the day is: Tired. Exhausted. Drained. Definitely one of those days where I do not want to sit down for an hour and find a 1000 words to say. But let’s see what I can come up with despite that. One. A…
