A fwded email about Life

These are really very powerful. Implement whatever you can. 1. Take a 10-30 minute walk every day. And while you walk, smile. It is the ultimate anti-depressant. 2. Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day. Buy a lock if you have to. 3. Buy a PVR tape your late night shows and get more sleep. 4. When you wake up in the morning complete the following statement, 'My purpose is to__________ _ today.' 5. Live with the 3 E's -- Energy, Enthusiasm, and Empathy. 6. Play more games and read more books than you did in 2006. 7. Make time to practice meditation, yoga, tai chi, and prayer. They provide us with daily fuel for our busy lives. 8. Spend more time with people over the age of 70 and under the age of 6. 9. Dream more while you are awake. 10. Eat more foods that grow on trees and plants and eat less food that is manufactured in plants. 11. Drink green tea and plenty of water. Eat blueberries, wild Alaskan salmon, broccoli, almonds & walnuts. 12. Try to make at leas...

Variety is the spice of life

I am fairly interested in interesting recipes(read 'never cooked before marriage'). Every time I try something new, I cannot wonder at the amazing variety of Indian dishes. We are filthy spoiled. Its absolutely no wonder that wherever we go, Indian food makes me hog for. Mexican, Chinese, Thai, Italian cuisines are definitely tasty in their own way, but are there any variety? I doubt with my little knowledge. Man, I so love Indian food. Food is one of the main reasons I travel :-) Nothing can give me good digestion or sleep but rice/roti. If it is curd rice, its a dream-come-true! Indian food is no more an addiction. It is survival!!!! for me, at least.

Glued to my seat, literally

Just managed to finish Dan Brown's Deception Point . A political thriller! I am not a big fan of US politics or NASA or the US Intelligence, but this is simply awesome. In fact, I liked it better than Da Vinci Code. I have started liking his writing & next on my rack is Digital Fortress .(I have a history of starting with New books & going backwards!!!) From the first couple of pages, I do seem intrigued! For all of you 'duh' ing me, its my second Dan Brown book. Amateur, you see. Its not always, I feel comfortable with someone's writing style.
