What I see and What I wish to see...: Food and Culture: My Jackfruit story
http://inavihs.blogspot.com/2013/04/food-and-culture-my-jackfruit-story.html
Friday, April 26, 2013. Food and Culture: My Jackfruit story. My mother's recipe for her signature kathal-do pyaaza had one element I loved. The amount of onions she used! It is called "do pyaaza" for a reason! Now imagine my shock when after years of living with the food wonder called kathal, I meet people who have never eaten the cooked form but eat it as a fruit, uncooked! Posted by Shivani Saksena.

http://inavihs.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, October 16, 2012. The beginning and end of an age. This past Sunday had a couple of important firsts for me. My first Sunday in Mumbai as a member of the workforce. The Sunday when my mother discovered my first grey hair. Marks a landmark of sorts for me. Posted by Shivani Saksena. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Join in the fun. The Other Side of Life.

What I see and What I wish to see...: December 2011
http://inavihs.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, December 27, 2011. I hereby declare my lifelong love for SHOES! Heels, flats, pumps, peep-toes, wedges, ballets, sneakers, loafers, basketball shoes, sandals, slippers, stilettos, platforms, gladiators and Mary-Janes. I've had them all and currently have many of them. I just adore each one them and will adore the one I am yet to buy. It barely covers enough for every type of occasion. But I still look out for them and I always have a few on my wishlist! Posted by Shivani Saksena. 2011, A memoir.

What I see and What I wish to see...: November 2011
http://inavihs.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 07, 2011. But suprise it turned out to be! He picked out fresh pieces of marinated breast pieces in front of us and started to slowly let it char on the smoldering charcoals. Definitely not just another roasted chicken. I'm so going to recommend it to anyone who had no qualms of admitting that street food can indeed be delicious and hygienic(as much as possible)! Finally Jamshedpur is playing its magic on me! Ps: check location of this post for exact place! Posted by Shivani Saksena.

What I see and What I wish to see...: May 2013
http://inavihs.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 07, 2013. Mirror mirror on the wall, who's the fairest of them all? Skin care regime in India is getting more product oriented. With insane number of products and brands available at every price range, it is only normal that they can't be told apart one from another. I have been a dedicated user of select products but I draw the line at products that attack my self esteem-fairness creams, anti-cellulite creams, acne preventing creams and their ilk.

What I see and What I wish to see...: August 2012
http://inavihs.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 15, 2012. Each time I thought about it or anyone asked me about it, I was so confident I'd take to it like a fish to water. As of this moment, I am not so sure. I always thought since my parents had pulled it off, I would obviously adapt. I craved for it. I told myself everytime.this is what I want. As of this moment, I am not so confident.

What I see and What I wish to see...: Travelling Solo: Elephanta Caves
http://inavihs.blogspot.com/2013/04/travelling-solo-elephanta-caves.html
Monday, April 22, 2013. Travelling Solo: Elephanta Caves. I have now been in Mumbai for a cumulative period of almost 8 months. Even though I have family and friends, I have had the liberty and opportunity to live alone. I admit that hasn't been very pleasant experience all through. To stop relying on other people's times and schedules I gave up and decided to explore this city alone. What she taught me was very basic but very helpful. Since most carvings have been destroyed, it is next to impossible...

What I see and What I wish to see...: Ironies that face you
http://inavihs.blogspot.com/2012/11/ironies-that-face-you.html
Thursday, November 01, 2012. Ironies that face you. Ironies often stand in front of you, facing you, taunting you. I am facing one right now. I love marketing. I love to do it. But a current marketing phenomenon is irking me to no end. Here are samples of why. Karwa Chauth. A day that was special because mom dressed in her wedding finery and I got to play with her silks. A day that was like any other except we'd go moon hunting for ma. A day we'd get puris and kheer. Then came Karan Johar. Join in the fun.

Sunday, October 06, 2013. Why I will not stay to witness Kolkata Pujo. I have asked many of the self proclaimed Pujo lovers what this weekend means to them. They all said fun. I further asked who did the actual Pujo at the Pujo and after a small pause, I got the same answer. The purohit. Posted by Shivani Saksena. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Join in the fun.
