Boondein - Silk Route
This song feels so fresh !!!!
khoi ho,
Yadoo mai,
palko pe bondein liye
aaina bani
keah aakhe tere,
dheme see, khushboo hai,
havoo ke jhoke ne joo
chu kae tujhe churai
Sanso ki, raho mei,
kya mil saken ge kabhi
dhoonde tujhe nighen hai mere
sathi the, janmo see,
raho mai kyou kho gaye,
manzil hume bulane lagi,
hey.....
nagma hoo.. bheega sa,
ya tum ho koi ghazal
har pal jise gungana tha rahu,
hothe see, hole see,
sargam jo bhene lagi,
gaane lagi, chahen mere
hey….

Culinary Skills or Lack of it
Although Guestau says "Everyone Can Cook" in the movie Ratatouille, i tend to strongly disagree with him.
Some of the actual stories / experiments i heard have ended in utter disaster.
A friend asked me the recipe of how to cook rice. That prompted me to invite him over for dinner rather than disclose the "secret" recipe.
There was this another instance when one of my acquaintance was trying to prepare tea. He literally filled 3 cups with milk and was about to add the tea powder when someone stopped and explained him the difference between preparing tea and coffee.
There was this occasion when we were new to this country and used dhania powder and thought it was garam masala for close to 6 months.
The other common errors included not having gasket on the cooker lid, starting the burner and putting the vessel on a differnt burner and using salt instead of sugar (damn.. both look similar)
Cooking is an art which needs to be mastered while eating comes very natural !!
