New Year, New Look

Well, what do you think of my new look blog? Huh?

I thought it reflected on my theme of being 'elsewhere' , in a place other than my own. Ofcourse, I look much better than that woman (though she's much thinner, from what I can tell!). The picture has some of my favorite notions - looking out over new horizons, the sparkling cleanliness, white clothes, the sky, flowers, wicker furniture... and a faceless name.

I tried a couple of floral templates, but they are so boring :( Anybody have any interesting template/skin sites to share? I like blogfrocks, but they seem to be still stuck with the same old templates. Now that I've realised it's so easy to change your skin, I might do it more often. Watch this space!

The aroma of fresh sambar drifts from my kitchen distracting me from this template-finding-code-editing business. I've concocted sambar from a ready mix packet and added some brinjal, carrot, okra and mushrooms! Ever had mushroom in sambar? Well, it tastes okay. Next time, I'll look for more 'appropriate' veggies, but right now, I just can't be bothered. My hot meal beckons.

Bet my mum is laughing right now, thinking of all the times she tried to teach me to cook, but I had better things to do. Not that I regret not having learnt...

  2. MTR. Trying it for the first time and it's quite nice. Must learn how to make it from scratch though - used too much water this time, so doubled up as soup :)

    We're OD-ing on India returned packets. Rex Jelly for dessert tonight!
