Home Sweet Home
That's where I am headed today. This is probably the longest that I have stayed away from my beloved Madras. Six and a half months. And I am so eager to visit.
I want to
Sit and talk to Amma and Appa.
Go to the beach.
Meet friends.
Meet my friend VJ and his fiancee.
Attend the wedding of two friends who were almost family.
Shop at Nilgiris.
Eat paruppu urundai.
Savour Amma's lemon cheesecake and date bars.
Get my hair done at the best beauty parlour in the country: Kanya.
I wish S would come along. I am going to miss him. But it's Madras I'm going to. And just for 3 days. So I'm going to make the most of it.
About Me
- Raaga
- I've spent the last 4 decades looking at everything and asking why or why not and I'm not about to stop. I'm looking at spending the next 4 also attempting to answer the whys and the why nots of my two little people.

so when are you coming down? we should meet you know.. :)
btw we seem to differ in our opinions about Kanya... the one in besantnagar has a repelling effect on me!
Leave this evening and reach tonight. Sure, let's catch up.
I've been visiting the Luz Kanya for almost 20 years now. Besant Nagar... maybe 3-4 years... but I allow only a select few to serve me :)
Sigh!!!!! Reminds me of how badly I wanna visit my home town and my parents @ Cochin... Its been a year... And as u said, "the longest that I have ever stayed away"
Hope u enjoy all the fun things u have planned!!!!!

@Whizkid: Is Thalaivar a movie, or do you mean Shivaji... sorry to sound like this, but I've never been up to date with tamil movies. But I love Sathyam. :-)
@Janani: I once thought about this long trip home... and it didn't work. So I make these 2 and 3 day trips every 3 months. Pinch the pocket, but I feel happy. And Kanya has been great for me.
@Trupti: I did meet a friend. She was at the airport with my folks. I of course spent time with my parents. I also ate the date bars and some brownies Amma made. So, I am on track. With your help, I will finish everything on that list :)
