Part 2: Early Days _ Part 2 of 4

“Early days” …..

The early experiments began in the kitchen. I can now safely proclaim that I know of all the Indian Youtube cooking channels – the Nisha Madhulika’s, Vah chef’s, Kabita’s, Rajashri’s, Sanjeev Kapoors, Rucha’s kitchen of the world. And can also review them dish wise if need be. However tasty or tasteless the dishes turned out, I ensured I had them captured and sent to the multiple groups I have on watsapp only to be enthused further by their kind comments. But the initial excitement of cooking soon saw itself fizzle out too. And while I still like cooking I now certainly know that I can never belong to the group of people who say that “Cooking is a stress buster!!”

 A course in Communication Strategy found itself knocking my door.  That does a decent job at keeping me gainfully occupied. Oh not to forget all the different workouts I’ve tried, watching on youtube. Yep, only watching!! And hence I can also watch all the weight as they pile up on me. A sight I am made to witness every time I put on something pretty and tight and a thought I rubbish every time I see something sweet and white. Actually it doesn’t have to be white (that was only rhyme sake), it just needs to be sweet.

And so as I sit to pen down my encounters in the U.S after that not so brief introduction, I hereby plan to incorporate one of  Ms. Lee’s teachings from our writing class - Keep the sentences short!!!! Something I was always bad at. So here I go….
