Singhara

Going by what Rohit says, Samosa is called Singhara in the east of India
(elsewhere its a dark color triangle fruit)
My childhood was filled with instances of eating this stealthily.
Now, with nobody minding, it doesnt taste half as good :P

New Problem?


samosa -watercolor-A5 sketchbook




from mobile net, got this image....

samosa, makes my stomach as chemical imbalance, so eat less samosa....
but its giving gud taste with tea....

samosa's are two types, 1) north indian samosa and 2) south indian samosa....

first one is too hard too eat, very tough material, (50 HRC- HRC meaning pls google it)
second one is somewhat Ok...

But i never forget the time, onion prices so high...that time in stead onion they put cabbage.
that was horrible,it was like a congress govt...:(

arrived on late springs, tropic summer
with a lot of brush strokes and spots

Lilliums Pink , lemon and yellow
to teach a Little chapter , new finding..
glass vase ,filled with mild fragrance..
glitter in my mind..magic in air

arrived on late springs, and summer
with a lot of brush strokes and spots

Hues of yellow, orange and white
Stigma , style and stamens of life
Leafy stems and seeds ripen
makes this ugadi a special day today.

Petals four,five and softy
Spots change to stubs and.. slowly
pollens purplish red and magenta
stick your hands with male gametes

arrived on late springs, and summer
with a lot of brush strokes and spots

water woes

quick scribble at work in old office


quick scribble at work today

Bangalore Lakes

As long as there are lakes capturing rainwater, there is a certain hope for Bangalore's survival.
Try not building houses/offices, not reclaiming lakebeds, not throwing dump/ industrial effluents,
not destroying flora and fauna, not promoting any recreational activity around such lakes
and have an excellent waste water management in place.
Then we are talking.


Another Cauvery problem?

Please see my other "value dated" postings posted only today as I was not in town!
