I finally came to this amazing realization that I cannot do everything. I want to be able to make healthy meals for my family, keep the house in perfect order, be on time for everything, spend quality time with my family while nourishing the little baby growing inside me... and get enough sleep for myself. …

What Should I Say?
I don't have anything to say. Actually, I don't have much to say. But, when I started blogging about a year ago, it seemed like I had a lot to say. And now, suddenly, it seems like I am out of ideas. I would have a great idea and then I would sit down to draft my blog …
My Dishwasher Experiment
"I would never use the dishwasher again" I told myself, and I kept at it for at least two years. Well, many many people never use a dishwasher all their lives, and I had never seen one till four years ago. I was quite convinced that all our plates, spoons, pots and pans could still be clean enough …
Give Thanks
It's almost been a week since Thanksgiving, and it's time to get into the Christmas season. But I am going to talk about our Thanksgiving weekend in today's post. This was the first time our family participated in a traditional Thanksgiving meal. No, I didn't do the cooking. Our friends so graciously invited us to join …

How I View Time Now
After our second son was born, our family had to get into a working routine a month after his birth, all by ourselves. My mom stayed with us for a month, and I was quite nervous about handling everything after she left. My husband would leave for work in the morning and return in the evening. …
In This Journey Called Life
I am learning to focus on my present step, instead of being so caught up by the next!
Do I?
It was a Wednesday night, four years ago. When I was about to hit the bed after a long day at work, I got a call from my dad. It was quite unusual for him to call at that time. What was he going to say? He didn’t take too long to get to the …
Seize Your Season
Where I live, fall (autumn) season has begun. The weather is getting cooler; the leaves are changing into beautiful yellow and red colours; days are getting shorter and the sun sets earlier. I love experiencing the change of seasons, more so because where I grew up, in India, the season changes weren't so distinct. It was …
