OMG!I cannot believe,its already 11.30pm.Another half and hour till midnight.
Tomorrow is DH’s birthday,he is putting Aadi to sleep now,but I am sure,he would fall asleep before her.
Its been a long tiring day,Aadi has been feeling sleepy and tired because of her antibiotics and she is also bored sitting at home.Today,we went to Coles,to pick up eggs for DH’s cake and she was soo excited..as we were going to Disneyland!
We came back,I cooked,cleaned the kitchen and was going to start baking.I am thinking of making a plain vanilla sponge with custard filling and butter cream frosting..what do you think? I was going to make a black Forest,but he wants a simple vanilla cake!!And here all my tastebuds were waiting for a Black Forest.But,its alright..its the long weekend and may be that will call for a black forest cake!LOL I amwas planning for a surprise birthday party for DH,over the weekend..but doesnt seem too likely..we’ll see.
As for tomorrow’s Menu- I am thinking Fresh baked Pita bread & Hummus,followed by Chicken Biryani and Cake. I just marinated the chicken and will let it sit overnight.
The other option that I had in mind was-Grilled chicken with Naan and some fried rice and ofcourse cake.But somehow Biryani seems more interesting.
He isn’t in a celebratory mood..so,I think either will cheer him up.
Anyway..I will stop my rambling now..almost time to wake up the birthday boy.

I am wondering why WordPress won’t let me post pictures today,when I am so tired.I have been trying all day..and it didn’t happen..so,here I am typing.:D
I am also wondering how on earth does FB come up with the friend suggestion…how?I can understand if its someone who has mutual friends with me..but I cannot understand the totally unrelated suggestions.
Edited to add: And what about those who are friends of friends..and you know from your mutual friends,that these FOFs are bloggers too..is it polite to ask friends for their urls..or just wait till you just stumble upon their blogs..?ughh confusing.
Speaking of friends,I don’t know how to react to this.A friend,who has never met me,buzzed me specially to share the news of her pregnancy,soon after she found out.Naturally I was thrilled for her.But,if she who hasn’t even met me,shared the news so freely with me,knowing I will be excited for her,then,why wouldn’t someone who has been a friend for nearly 7 years,someone who speaks to me,on almost weekly basis and sometimes even more,doesn’t tell me about her being pregnant,until a week after the 12 week mark.I know..I know..I understand that she would have wanted to wait till she completed 12 weeks,etc..but I also know that she would have been one of the first few to know …if the cases were reversed.And also,it wouldn’t bother me so much,if she wouldn’t have told anyone else either..Oh well,to each her own..but still…
Anyway…In other news,I made it into the Indusladies Mother’s Day e-book.Swaram left a comment telling me,even before Indusladies,got a chance to email me..it is quite nice to see my name there:) I am not able to upload pics for the last 2-3 days..will edit this post,when I can.
And also,thanks Shruti,for passing on the Cherry on top award..its such a cute award..:) And I love getting it from you.When WP lets me,I will update my awards page.
Edited to add picture. -
OMG! I hate this!
I wrote a long post,describing our weekend in detail and WP,ate it all!!!Damn it!!!
Am soo mad!
Anyway, here you go again:
The weekend started off real nice..we slept in and lazed around after brunch.The menu this week was-cutlets-Railway style and fresh bread.
Aadya was very cranky and so to distract her,we decided to do something fun.We sorted her toys and found an assortment of used crayons and decided to make crayon cakes.
DH and Aadi spent one hour peeling and breaking the crayons into smaller pieces and I sorted the rest of her toys,peacefully.
The crayons came out beautiful.I have made something similar in my teens..mixed some candle wax and assorted colors of crayons,to make multicolored candles..they were quite a hit too..but,the process was too tedious.
I found this while blog-hopping..and decided to do this with Aadi. We couldn’t stop gushing at them and even DH was found looking at them,with an awe-struck look on his face.I found an empty flash-card box and it made the perfect container for these babies.Ms.Aadya spent most of the day,walking around with the box,stopping to open it and admire the beauties:)
Then came evening and the ear-ache.We spent most of the night,sitting up,feeling helpless as we watched her cry.I kept praying..wishing for the night to end soon.
In the morning,both of us had a cup of tea and rushed to the Dr.s office .It was a long wait and finally Dr.P saw her.We freaked out in the morning,coz,when Aadi woke up,she asked to be taken to Dr.P.We were anyway going to take her..but to hear a child say that she wants to go to the Dr. is heart-breaking.
Dr.P said it was an ear-infection again..but this time,it seemed even worse and prescribed a stronger dose of anti-biotics.
We fed her some rice that I asked Friend S to make for her,came home gave her the meds n she dozed off in Papa’s lap.
She is still in pain,but the antibiotics make her drowsy,which is a good thing.
I will have to post pics another time..since WP doesn’t seem to friendly today.
She is sleeping next to me,whimpering in her sleep,as I type this.DH can’t seem to understand my obsession with blogging and this whole deal with NaBloPoMo..but,I can’t help it..I need this,to be me..to stay sane.Besides,he doesn’t know a thing about the love of blog-friends and the power of comments,does he?
