Car Rally!!!

Carried out a long time dream yday. Went on a cross country car Rally - with DAchu and a friend and advaith!

It wasn't a speed rally but a time-distance- speed one where you have to control the speed between points. Since the speed was generally around 20-35 km suited a slow driver like me. You need a good navigator mainly which Dachu was.

It was through the valleys and hills around Ooty... a scenic dream and to places we've never been. Bengalmuttom, Thoduvarmuttom, and all sorts of small hattis...

60 km of roughish and smooth terrain.Since the Santro is a highish car(compared to all the newbies) and is an oldish car, was ideal.

A great experience.

Hey

Hi everyone
I have been one of those people guilty of reading the blog and not writing anything on it. Life has been really busy and hectic for the past two months, with Advaith arriving a little early. And just when we were getting used to him and arriving at a routine, we had some unexpected visitors in the night. Appa was out of action for about a month and has just started going to the clinic for half a day. So we are just getting back to normal (Touchwood!!)
I am finally getting a little time to do something else other than feeding and sleeping :).The atta cake was the result :) I actually tried the cake with maida the next week but it wasnt as good as the atta one :D Ammachi, the picture on the blog was taken from the recipie site, it wasnt the actual picture of the cake i made :)) Since i finished most of the cake, i can attest to the fact that it tasted really good :)

Advaith is 2 months old now. He is able to recognise my voice and follow when i walk across the room. He also smiles from time to time in his sleep :) . Life after the baby is incredibly full. We dont realise how time flies, while not really doing anything much. Am enjoying it but also thinking of the time when i have to go back to Sydney and manage alone. I really dont know how i will be able to do that :)

Hello world

Yesterday, Dachu decided to make Apple cake since we have so many apples from all the visitors who are visiting PC. Somehow, people associate any form of illness/disability with a disability in eating too which is misplaced. Appetites get whetted when people are cooped up at home and crave variety too. Which is why dachu was making the cake.

I said later'why don't you ask me anything?" - meaning help while making the cake.
And she said 'Why should I?'
I had to say 'for instance, I could have told you where the maida is so you didnt have to make the cake out of atta '

But still the cake is good and she is going steady with it.
Anyone who wants the recipe can apply.
The pic is borrowed and just to make people hungry and jealous


Also, I would like to thank Nirmala chitti, Thambi, Sakthi, Lalli Aunty, Mama who all read the news of our intruder attack and subsequent injuries to PC on the blog and called with concern.

PC has gone to Ganga today for a review and hopefully, hopefully one of the plaster casts will come off so he can use at least one hand. Things can only get better
