The
Black hole Theory!
This
is dedicated to my dear friend Twinkle who helped me in this discovery
Hello everyone,
It,s been a nearly two months time since I met my
blog. Numerous activities/errands were on my mind and there was a pause -‘Statue”!
lockdown as announced by our worthy PM –followed by Janta curfew which has been
extended till mid April.
Being home is a bliss#24 hr meditation#ample of time#fun.
Numerous thoughts/ideas pop up, linger for some time and then die a natural
death. This particular theory caught my fancy.
There,s one Black Hole in cosmos as we all know. I
discovered another Black hole during self quarantine period. Keep guessing
!!!!!!!!!
Let me take you along on this discovery. “Mummy ! I
am hungry!” says your elder child, echoed by your younger one, your spouse joins
in chorus. Fine! You tend to make something interesting, appetizing, different,
low calorie, etc to suit three entirely different taste buds form different
galaxies. Correct! you read it all right. You make some dish to the best of
your ability and culinary skills and proceed to take some rest.
Bingo! comes another voice (this time your spouse,s)
“Suno, kuch badiya banaa do!”
Abhi to banaya aur khilaya – my self-defense answer
( always)
There is an unusual sense of disbelief in air which
is snapped by “ Achha!”
Once again you enter your karmshetra, rather
kurukshetra armoured with your you tube videos and your skills. Mission
successful. Everything seems just
perfect. With a sense of pride akin to victorious warrior, you treat yourself
to a cuppa of hot ginger tea. As you are about to settle on your favorite bean
bag, almost when you are in mid air, your spell is broken by anguished voice of
your younger one, Mummy ! where are you ? my tummy is rumbling with hunger !.
Without enjoying the comfort of my beanbag, I stand
up and head towards the kitchen.
My younger one is beaming from ear to ear. Mom! Let,s
make something interesting! (fingers drumming on kitchen shelf and eyebrows
doing sapera dance). Mother in me doesn’t want to spoil a kid,s hope. So, once
again, I am into making something exiting, different, tasty,…..etc.
This keeps on repeating from dawn till
dusk!.........
Twilight is my moment of great discovery ! my
spouse and both children have a black hole in their stomach/body. Where the
food goes , no one knows. What I know is they keep on asking for more and more to feed
this black hole with complete (read as convenient) amnesia to previous food history.
Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!
Dedicated to all mothers like me who are dealing with
this during self quarantine period.
Hope my discovery makes
your days easy.
Stay tuned, will be
back more often.
Love,
Take Care,
Juju.

Kahani Ghar ghar kee
My mother never tried to be a warrior in face of the notorious black hole. She used to surrender with the statement, "Bhai mere paas tumhari bhookh ka koi ilaaje nahin hai!"
Was that seriously based on me, as if me as a version of both your children mixed and making a mixed breed namely AkG(me). Hope you understand who ME is
