For your aching tummy....

Life of a child is - TOUGH!

Shreyas was whining one evening and we "so-called doting parents" dismissed it as 'frequently shown trailer of upcoming terrible-two movie'. But it turned out, he was having some tummy discomfort!

I mixed a pinch of asafoetida (hing) in a tea-spoon of cold milk and rubbed it on his tummy. He felt better pretty soon and slept within few minutes.

Sometimes i wonder, how much I have taken these home remedies for granted. If any of us is unwell, I call up my Mom/Mom-in-law, they will tell to make use of some spice or herb (which is readily available in kitchen). I use it, feel better and then it slips out of my mind.
But now i am thinking, how much research and hard-work, our ancestors must have done to come up with these handy medicines. Out of billions of things, why only asafoetida for aching tummy? We can atleast appreciate their brilliance and make use of the gift (and document it too) . No??

Before i end my post....

To our fore-fathers and fore-mothers, U ROCK!

Father may want to disown me, if he sees my car. I grew up in a town which was practically covered with dust, but if there was one thing remained pristine...its my dad's car. Now i live in a city, where only visible evidence of dust must be ___. Yeah, you guessed it right .Why? How? Why? Thats what i am unable to figure out.Sigh!
I will definitely get my car a car-wash before summer of 2011. U asked 2011,Ohh..Thats when Mom-dad are planning to visit na ;)


Stay Cool Clean!

A big caring hug and phone-calls from one and nonstop baby-talks and wet kisses from other.
Still snuggling in blanket in my night-clothes, with a wonderful book in one hand and piping hot ginger tea in other..
Ahhaaaaha, i am so enjoying my Sardi & bukhaar.


Aaaaaaanchoo!
