It's psychosomatic. You need a lobotomy. I'll get a saw

When life gives U lemons, take some tequila & salt & shot glass & slam one back!! I need something stronger than lemonade !!


There are funeral hats, bday hats, clown hats n so forth.but the most tiresome i found in my experience was the Chef's hat.
I substituted as a waitress at a get-together a while back, when the papparazi clicked away to glory!!
I aint a chef!! There, it’s out in the open!! I cook & experiment only on my family and friends as witnesses will testify!
On returning from India in feb, I hired a cook/maid to help get my laziness back in shape and size!!
Maid 1
She wasn’t from my part of the state, so, she didn’t know how to cook our stuff, our way. & apparently, she didn’t know to cook vegetables either! She actually cuts the drumsticks in half, scrapes off the mid portion!! Y would anyone do that to a drumstick?? There's bird flu threat here, so, I never bought chicken or egg & I didn’t dare try out her fish!!
So, v silently suffered for a month!

Next maid was the maid 1's roomate, apparently a keralite.
Reasons y maid 2 didnt make the cut...
She couldn’t speak Malayalam & her English was broken. She didn’t know how to cook basic mallu food. She then proceeded to make drumstick curry and ladies finger curry in the srilankan style! It was the day ‘Srilanka’ defeated ‘India’ at the ‘World Cup’!
Turns out she’s a Srilankan, stayed in Kerala for a month. Her roommate never figured it out!! I have nothing against Srilankan food, honestly! I’ve never had it before to compare it with. But for some reason, its all Yellow! Be it the curd curry, the potato fry, the ladies finger curry, the white potato stew or a brown chicken curry or white pulao! All YELLOW!!
Mom’s come, so Good food on go again, but turns out I cant eat a few of the items!!
