Time for a lil bit of intro.

Okay. So let me start with why I've chosen paneerBlahTearMasala as my blog's name. Firstly I love paneer (cottage cheese) and blah - I feel my life is as blah as it can ever get and tear - just so that it sounds close to butter (you know paneer butter masala) and yeah dont start thinking I cry a lot,haha. Anyway the last thing is masala (spices) - oh yeah! I have a lot of that in my life. Wondering how my life can be blah with all that masala huh, well I haven't figured that out yet. No wait. The masala I have is not really what I want, you know what I mean.

Minus Them Lifelines

So, here’s the thing…our lives have been largely consumed by technology. We are able to work, stay connected, and stay entertained – thanks to the internet and smartphones. Now, let’s assume, hypothetically, phones and internet seize to exist from tomorrow. Scary isn’t it? What could be the repercussions? Here are some of them from random angles:   Television Kids would watch whatever cartoon runs on TV, adults would watch either cricket or news, whatever comes on TV. There would be absolutely no preference or something like Netflix and Prime that used to exist -watch on your whims and fancies. Burn in hell!!   Food You would cook whatever you know, or learn (like not to burn the roti) eventually. No step by step recipes to read or watch and try out. No home delivery of food, get your ass to the restaurant and get takeaway, you would rather have your food there, right?   Parenting You would not be able to feed the kid by playing the SAME effing video that wo...

My Travel Stories - Pondi!

      I wanted to visit Pondi from a long time, and finally did this Holi! Every Holi I end up planning a quick getaway, knowingly or unknowingly making us not play Holi in this process. For the record, Augus and I have NEVER celebrated Holi together. After days of mulling over and considering the potential places we could go, we decided upon Pondicherry. I was agitated when Augus told “No” to a place that has wildlife, to a place that has beaches and to a place that has mountains. That is almost telling a n o for a vacation itself! Meano!     I was determined that I needed a break. A break from breaking my head over “What do I make for breakfast?” (That’s approved by Augus and his parents - mind you, I can count on one hand the number of South Indian dishes for breakfast the entire house agree upon. Sigh!). A break from the talks. The not-so-interesting talks that happen in the house, where all I can say is Ummm and nothing else, while o...

My Travel Stories - Dandeli!

This was around two years ago, we were a group of 12 girls who went on a trip to Dandeli, in Karnataka, India. We were a gang of friends, friend's gang of friends and so on. It was a very short trip but was the most thrilling trip of my life so far!! We did a lot of activities like kayaking, nature walk and so on  but the most dangerous and adventurous one was river rafting in the river Kali. We were all set with life guards and paddles. Till the last moment I was convinced that I am not doing it, and if I do, I will not finish it alive. The River Kali looked so full of force and vigor. My friends convinced me to go for it, and I could not believe how I ended up in the line. That line - waiting for my turn to put a signature on a sheet of paper that said they are not responsible if anything happens to me, including death. Wow. We started off, and the guide was a bold and young guy who took the responsibility of twelve young ladies in their early twenties. LOL. I'm saying this...
