Maithily's Scribblings

In a country like India, where people are known for their hospitality and welcoming guests with a big smile, it is surprising to encounter a few who are heartless and do not know how to welcome a guest—or at the very least, refrain from insulting them. I know I can’t expect everyone to be sweet and nice to me, but in our country, shouldn’t we expect basic self-respect and courtesy? It was a real insult and a terrible experience today when I went to meet someone for a good cause, only to be treated poorly by an educated illiterate woman!

A gentleman invited us in, only for a lady to start shouting at the top of her voice, telling us to get out—displaying her frustration and anger toward someone completely new to her!

My first every baking class though it was an expensive class, the techniques and ideas I have learned from there can be used life long... Here is the picture of the first cake decorated by me! My First Fondant decoration!

Lord Muruga - The photo on my wall Fairy, a cute little Catholic kid about 4 years old, came to my house last week.
