English is funny language

Posted on February 17, 2014 | 9 comments

Last weekend, I felt like eating Indian food. As you know we have been eating really healthy for the past few months but from time to time we do crave others food. So we decided to go out for lunch to the Indian place in Parramatta.

We drove to the restaurant and ordered Vegetarian dosa, a few curries and Naan bread. AS suggested we order chicken dosa but I remembered that the last time I had chicken dosa, I didn’t like it.

When the food arrived we were happy. We had naan and curry and veg dosa was the last to arrive.Helensburgh (17)

Both I and AS were disappointed with the dosa as it was nothing like the one we normally have.

On the way home, we were still talking about the food.

Me: “I didn’t like the feeling after we ate. It wasn’t like before.”

AS:  “I know, the filling was not like before.”

Me:  “I know . I think it was too oily as I am not feeling very good.”

AS: (Starts laughing.) I know how you are feeling but I was talking about the filing, the aloo (potatoes) in the dosa 😀

Indeed English is a funny language 🙂

Take care ,

Warm melting chocolate cake from Carnival cruise

Posted on February 15, 2014 | 6 comments

Anyone who has been to one of the Carnival cruise will vouch that the warm chocolate melting cake is the best melting cake ever.

The chocolate melting cake used to be either a special order or only served on certain nights on the cruise before. The dessert became so popular because of its richness and delicious taste that Carnival has now put it on the menu for dinner every night. Being chocoholic, of course it was AS’s favourite dessert throughout the cruise as well.

Imagine our delight when we got the recipe for the cake when we were doing the behind the fun tour.

Happy Valentine’s Day my dear Husband

Posted on February 14, 2014 | 9 comments

Today is Valentine’s Day and I had a great start. I woke up to this awesome message on our kitchen bench top this morning. Thank you my dear, can’t wipe smile off my face ❤ ❤ ❤

Thank you for coming into my life.You make me complete.
You are my everything.Once again, be my Valentine.

Happy Valentines Day Love.

I am very happy and here is a love letter to my thoughtful romantic husband 🙂

My dear husband AS,

It is Valentine’s Day today and I can’t help but remember our very first valentine’s day, the day when we were miles apart but you made it so much special for me anyway. (If you haven’t read the post, here is the link.)

Like every year, love is in the air and I couldn’t stop myself but feel extremely lucky to have someone so special in my life. I know I don’t say that every day but I like you to know that you are the reason I wake up smiling every morning. You are the reason that my heart beats. As the years go by, I stop and think about all the memories we have made, the good times we have shared and the love between us that keeps growing.

I know I am stubborn and not always so easy to get along with and I know my insecurities sometimes get the best of me. I am very thankful that you are in my life when I need someone to hold me and tell me everything is going to be OK.

Life has become more meaningful because of you. I admire the way you inspire me to face life with so much faith and strength. We have been through a lot and yet we are still together and stronger than ever.

I love you not because of your good looks, your awesome body and how much you earn . I love you because I am a better person when I am with you. You have been my best friend from the beginning and I could not imagine life without you. Thank you for sharing your life with me. I love you.

Forever Yours,

M

valentine's day (3)

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone !!!

P.S: We are going for a movie and dinner tonight 🙂 . Share your plan for today.

Take care everyone ,

M from nepaliaustralian

XOXO
