The Stories that Are.. Vol. 3
The past two weeks have been all about running and how I completed my 21k. Yes it might be an overkill at this point, but this volume of ‘The Stories that Are’ is all about that. The blogs and posts that kept me motivated and continue to do so. 1. http://www.lazygirlrunning.com/blog – I love this blog, […]
A Bit of This and a Lot of That Weekly Post Challenge
I started my blog as a series of random thoughts that started to take shape. I did the 100daysofhappiness challenge that conditioned me to appreciate the little things in life. Life is not only about the big things that happen to you. It happens when you don’t realize what’s happening around you. We get so […]
Why I Run….
In one of my previous posts, IÂ spoke about the fact that I have not been running for too long. My first run was in March 2014. It was a simple 5k, but it meant the world to me. I completed a half marathon recently and now a 5k doesn’t seem like too much anymore. Its […]

The Tale of the Panna Cotta
Panna cotta ‘Panna… cotta‘ It sounds so fancy! ‘Panna cotta’. Pooja had no idea what it meant, even while she sat watching the contestants of MasterChef whip up the desert at the drop of a hat. It seemed to come in all varieties, flavours, colours, presentation methods, yet, it had not struck her to […]
The Stories that Are.. Vol. 2
Well, its not really the week that was, its more like the weeks that were! I realize that I might not be able to update this segment every week as I might not have been able to go through so much in one week, or blogs and articles that I’ve read are not that inspiring […]
