Cook it!

A very dear friend once told me: " India mein thak ke mar jaoge, US mein pak ke mar jaoge" - in India you will die from bing overworked (thakna) and in the US you will die from being bored(pakna)! Ironically, the Hindi word for cooking is pakana too... And that's precisely what I'm doing in USA, leading the life of the Indian belle, cooking, eating, cooking, eating, and cooking some more! Not four months old on American soil, and I'm rolling out my chapatis.. And frying my chura matar! And I'm thinking.... Thinking what I love about it... What I detest about it.... And even when it's not the bed of roses... I still am tucking it and making the most of it! It grows on you like time... And is as uncertain as life itself.... The gypsy rings may be missing, but the wanderer is alive... Dying only after living.... Traveling only after returning.... And lest we forget.. Eating only after cooking!!!
