Ice creams

Ice creams are such a refreshing treat during summer. It's a frozen dessert that makes a lot of people happy.

Ice cream makes me remember my childhood days. I used to love eating choco bar ice creams. A few years later I started eating cone icecreams. With the new Kwality Walls shop that opened near my grandparents house, I used to go to buy Cornetto everyday! Paddle pop was also a treat. Then came the bucket ice cream. I used to love the strawberry bucket ice cream.

I once didn't want to go to a dentist. So my parents and grand parents convinced me to go by saying that I could eat an ice cream after visiting the dentist. I sat at the dentist shop patiently and got my tooth removed and enjoyed the ice cream later.

I know the ingredients of making a vanilla ice cream. Milk, double cream, sugar, vanilla custard. But I have never tried to make an ice cream at home :) I have always eaten ice creams outside in hotels, shops, zoo, palace but never tried to make an ice cream at home.

Recently when I went to Ibaco to have an ice cream I noticed many young girls and boys, kids and their moms who were all enjoying their ice creams and thought I'm not the only one who enjoys ice creams with a smile on my face.

Zodiac signs

Zodiac signs' dictionary meaning is: "an imaginary area of the sky containing the positions of the sun, the moon and the main planets, divided into 12 equal parts, named after 12 groups of stars. It is interesting to see how these stars effect the life of each individual living on Earth. This study of stars is an ancient science which rises curiosity in everyone. The study depends on the date of birth of the individual in the western countries and on the birth star in the Hindu astrology. The zodiac signs plays a vital role in match making and other aspects in Indian arranged marriage. Some people have strong beliefs in the forecast of these zodiac signs. However I do not believe in the predictions of the zodiac signs :) Jahnavi Participating in A to Z challenge

Bangles and Bracelets

Bangles are one of the most attractive and beautiful jewellery that I have seen. Having born and brought up in South India, I have seen almost all women wearing bangles. Bangles and Bracelets are auspicious and also very trending in the fashion industry now. Bangles are enchanting and are worn with style by women for special ocassions these days. There are several types of bangles in India but the ones that I have come across in Mysore and Bangalore are the single cylindrical shaped bracelet called kadaga which is usually made of silver, Glass bangles usually in the colors red and green , Gold bangles with various designs ( my favorite is the pepper corn design) , Gold bangles studded with diamonds and wooden bangles which are painted with designs. The kadagas are now mostly worn in the village areas compared to the cities like Mysore and Bangalore. The wooden bangles made in channapatna is popular amongst young girls. All these bangles are round in shape whereas the modern ba

Vintage letters

Vintage letters are treasures for me. The art of writing letters was in practise since 300 A.D. After 16th century writing letters became an art. Letters were not just used for communication but it became an art also. The design of the letter took a uniform design when the British came to India and started ruling over. Even to this day in some villages of India, the post man or the teachers of the school should open the letter and read it. Today,some vintage letters are preserved in the families, in the Government offices, Parliaments and the collectors who fancy collecting vintage letters. I have preserved letters from Great grandfather and my GrandFather.  I feel that these vintage letters are some sort of treasure that I have. Funniest part is, it takes a long time to come to the matter itself because the starting two- three sentences is to be polite enquiries and whereabouts of each other and ending the letter used to be with elegant words. I will post some pictures of the vint
