my grandma..

Things I do with pride and give credit to her…

1. Cooking aviyal, thiyal, meen, naranga pickle ( white and vedi kozha). Its a usual comment at home that even if we make thoran and pulisherry its tasty. Like green fingers there must be some culinary fingers in our family.

2. Lighting velakke at 6:30 pm with flowers adorning each deity and praying aloud( singing) and passing the tradition down to mayee

3. Stocking things for a month or so. I have seen dysfunctional houses where you have to run to the shop when the toothpaste tube finishes.

4. Reading good English classics especially Pearl S Beck.

5. Writing diary and keeping accounts meticulously. Of late I have lost it..but its just raring somewhere to come back

6. Tolerance yet maintaining your individuality even if the life gets harder..
