Something Cooking

I think ours will be a generation where many of our native recipes which had survived centuries will die an unceremonious death. It may have happened to some of them in the past generations also but I suppose the number will be much higher with us. Once we cross 30, we get too worried about how sick we are soon going to be and just get confused with what we should eat. We use olive oil, gulp green-tea with trouble, eat coloured rice, look for anti-oxidants in everything and make sure to check the labels for zero-cholesterol. I think we all need some more of physical labour.

We finally finished Gulabi Talkies. If actors like Umashree are there, directors will have half their job done. We watched Vamshavriksha also. I like Bhairappa's old novels much better.

L took Dracula in the end. Hope she likes it. There is one thing that's puzzling me about her, which is her treatment to her father. She loves her mother dearly but I find her hardly civil to her father. Of course she knows him better than I do but I've never seen her talk like that to anyone else. I'll ask her about it some day.
