Jan’22 : The first one was a short trip to Marari beach near Allepey with my mother and an overnight stay in a beach side cottage. Watching the serene beach was very refreshing. Next day, did a houseboat tour to Kuttanad, the rice bowl of Kerala. We had never been to this place (Seriously ? !) Back in Blr, it was the same routine.

 Nov 26 : As i was driving Appu to school in the morning, Merly calls

 Years have gone by, in fact flown by. Though i can still feel, i didn't have a clue what it would look like after 10 years of marriage or for that matter 18 ! As always , Anand wanted to go trick or treating with friends instead of joining his parents for dinner but Cheeku tagged along. We chose Gustum ,after having heard lot of good reviews. Amma and Hari were there so the 5 of us went had a sumptous dinner, clicked pics and came home. Not to forget the Gelato ice cream! I love to eat sweets as much as i feel guilty about it. Lucky are the ones who don't like sweets. Overall a nice evening and to add to it, the bill will be reimbursed by Accenture (Diwali budget)
