We doNOT need all those Expensive Toys

I have heard my parents say that they DONOT need to spend $$$$ on my toys since I always find something ELSE to play with.

I guess they now understand that we kids DONOT need all the expensive toys. We are just happy with the discarded plastic containers, petroleum jelly can, permanant markers, old magazines to tear pages off in tiny pieces, jump from the sofa to the floor and lots of HUGS and TEARS in between.

Here are some of the stuff that I DO with my non-Toys.

I Can't Believe it's Butter!! But the container sure is a nice HAT.


PS. My greatgrand maa washed it to use for moongfali storage. I found a better use of it - as a HAT.



I like to climb on the sofa and jump or slide off of it. My parents have put a layer of 4 sleeping bags on the floor for my soft-landing :).


I Like to pour water in and out of water bottles. It is great fun.


And drink a bit in-between. Do you like my Real-Cap. I loved it so much that I must have gone to sleep with the cap on. But it disappeared after few days. Must be my mom, may be she wanted to get rid of my Hat-addiction.


Oh Yeah! I do clean up after myself. That way I can make as much mess as I want. I tell you...Cleaning is fun but making a mess is even more FUN.


Another in-expensive fun - Watching Nursery rhymes on youtube and singing with it.


Oh and there are so many others to list. May be another time.

Lots of Hugs and Giggles and few tears.

Roti Making - the hardest thing to make

Continuing with the cooking saga, here comes the hardest of all- The Roti Making. So follow very carefully my friends since it is really hard.

So here we go..


Step 1. You take a small dough piece. Make a ball and flatten it.


Step 2. Get ready to roll it on the rolling surface.



Step 3. It WILL for sure get stuck to either the board or your rolling pin (belan).



Step 3. Ask mommy to dust it with some flour and roll again.



Step 4. Roll some more. Make sure you dust it with flour time to time.



Step 5. Keep rolling. Try to roll with soft hands and also keep dusting.



Step 5. When you think you have reached the desired thickness. Stop rolling. For a good Roti, it needs to be round and equal thickness all around.



Step 6. Give it to mommy for cooking on a pan (tava). I thought I will taste it just like that. I tell you the raw Roti was yucky. I think it tastes better if it is cooked.




So hope you enjoy the roti with some sabji and daal. Healthy Eating Always.

Sandwich Making

Well, I do help my mommy in cooking. So here I am showing off my skills in making sandwiches. So follow along folks.

Step 1. Put the bread in the sandwich maker.



Step 2. Close the top.



Step 3. Oops!! forgot to put the other piece of bread.



Step 4. The other piece of bread is little bit big. So eat a bit to make it fit.



Step 4. Adjust the breads in the sandwich maker to fit. Close the Top.



Step 5. Be careful when you open because it might be very hot.



Step 6. Oh Yeah! I make licking good sandwiches. Want some. Come over to my place.



Well as you may have noticed, the sandwich maker was not plugged in. That is how I am allowed to make sandwiches, until I grow up a bit more.

Love Always and always Keep Smiling.
