Its a GUAVA tree...!! Check out...

Salaam..

So the pictures I posted in my earlier post are that of a guava tree..!! YUP..!! Usually call them “ JAAM “ in Urdu/Hindi….!! J

We had got some guava s from the market. Donno who, but some body planted the fruit seeds in our yard..!! And now its about 6yrs n we have a nice 15 feet tall tree or probably a BIG SHRUB ..!! J I think it was perfectly suited - The climate, the soil, the annual rainfall - all good.

The fruit , see the leaves are long.

Here are some fruits of our GUAVA Tree… I like the color of these..

Funny thing about this, U won’t believe all these guavas were plucked from the tree by my DAD…!! Yup..!! n u know he climbed onto the tree. Hehehe…!! Imagine ur dad whos like 61 yrs climbing a tree. Hahahaha..!! FUNNY na….!! J Tough it’s not that big a tree; it is really kindda scary to climb. I asked him so much not to do that but he dint listen. Aleast there was a fence over there for the support. No one bothered to harvest the guavas so he had to do that.

A lot of fruit also dropped just by a gentle shake of the branch..!! J

More Guava pictures..... Isn't the bright pink guava pretty?

I call this STRAWBERRY GUAVA coz its got such a pretty color like strawberry.

I made this with the fruit..!! Guavas with salt and chilli are a common …. J But I used Guavas n Bananas. Mind Blogging COMBO na….! J Maybe I could have made a Guava Pie or something..!! Maybe next time…!! J

Still I cant say GUAVAs are my kindda fruits..!! But I don’t dislike them either…!! J

Look how BIG they are. The supply never seemed to wane(Mashaallah). These fruits were given out to our neighbours, relatives , friends n all…!! J

Healthful aspects of GUAVA ( I had to google to write this ) ----- Regulating blood pressure and contains vit C more than orange.

Guys if u wanna have some guavas then come over to my place..!! J

BEST STREET-SIDE FOOD EVERrrrrr.!! :-) PANI PURI

Salaams...

Pani Puris are the best road-side food I have eaten. Its one of my FAV..!

I simply love them, you give me anytime I am all set ready for it. After tasting my first one, I never turned to it. Seriously, I would ran a mile if I had to eat this. Hehehe..!! J I simply love the idea of gulping the entire thing at just one shot. So when i go for chats , the choice is so obvious , i eagerly stands next to the Chat Wala gulping down the numerous Puris before the next one can be made…!! J Ahhh.. I just LOVE THEM..!! J I can jus see the smile creeping up my face as I type this..!! J J

I remember in college after our classes in the evenings, my friends used to eat pani puris from the GADI WALAs..!! One day they asked me to come along. I said I am not used to eating anything from the roadsides. They forced me , so I went along. Funny I jus used to stand there n watch them eat for 2 days , until I thought of trying it out....!! And since then I have been addicted to it..!! We used to go out like atleast twice a week …!! J I never liked to eat at roadside carts before that, but once I tried it there, I became a regular customer.

SO yesterday I had made these so tasty n yummy PANI PURIS for Iftar. Everybody loved it..!! J Ahh… It makes me wanna have them right now…!! J

I adapted the recipe from my cousin Ash. Thank you Ash for giving me the recipe.. LoVe u more..!! J

So tell me guys, anybody out there loves pani puris too or tell me which is ur fav roadside food….?...???? I would love to try it out… !! J

From ur early morning blogger..!! J HAPPY GULPING..!!! J J

Smiles Smiles all the way…

Salaams to u all….

Hey u all… I am so happy to tell u guys that I removed my teeth braces a few days back. I Had it for almost a year and trust me IT SUCKED! I was so sick of going through the treatment. After almost 12-13 sittings i finally removed it.. Ahh.. I feel so relaxed n free right now. I contemplated many times that i'd go to the dentist and say i want them off NOW!.But he said “Oh it'll only be another month”.....

When my orthodontist was removing it , I was like “ Yes! Take it OFF, just TAKE IT OFF“. I can't thank my dentist enough for straightening my teeth. Yeh! they made me upset for a year but it was definitely worth the Money ,Time and Pain. Braces were definitely worth this long trip. I'm happy with the results, and I love my new smile.

Now I have these removable once. I like my retainers. They're cool. Way cooler compared to my braces. I think they feel kind of neat. At first my speech was bad for a few days, but its getting better, I'm getting used to it. Very neat things must I say, but they are a pain to keep track of..!!

Just when I was returning home from the clinic, I see a police jeep pull to stop sign and I got a bad feeling immediately. He says ur riding in ONE WAY. I cant believe the police caught me like that. And that too just near my house when I was just 3 -4 yards away from it. He asked me to pay up but I was like why do I have to pay- it will be like corruption. And I asked him that I would call up my dad first. And he was like “ U are going to pay up or not , Or we would have to take ur vehicle, just give me ur keys n all.. “

I thought about it then I decided to pay up n get out of there at once. So I got a ticket for Rs 100. And on the ticket it said “ Violation of a law” .. Hahaha… ! J

The police have caught me before too, but usually I drive so fast that they cant stop me or even follow me.. But not this time ,No… They caught me..!! J

The JOURNEY and some adventure….

Salaams…

It's been such a long time since I've blogged. I have no idea what's kept me from writing. I guess I have been busy one way or another. All u guys out there have been asking me about it. And guys its so Great to here that u read my posts and miss them. Ah! LOVE YOU for that. So here I am writing one.

So Journey han.! Whenever I here this lil word it makes me go crazy. I just cant think of travelling. I cant tell u how much I hate it. Probably it’s the last thing I wanna do. Whenever I travel I almost everytime end up throwing up or I get this sever stomach-ache that I cant bare. And everytime we decide to go somewhere I have to prepare my mind for it, otherwise its gonna get worse for me. But watta do yaar, you cant just keep being in just one place na. You gotta go out and experience and explore the great outdoors. I have tried to overcome it but its not worked. I just have to deal with it I guess. My brother and some of my friends says they just loved travelling. Donno how they do it.

So the other day we were supposed to goto our estate with my Parents n cousins, and I obviously threw up. But it wasn’t so bad travelling coz I gotto do Fishing, which I LOVED. Fishing is a great experience for adults and children alike. We choose the perfect time - it was early evening and the weather was great.

Me and my cousins were all geared up and ready to go. We went to our pond over there with the fishing rods. It was so amazing. We just had to put the fishing rods in the water n wait for it to get caught. And the bait for the fishes were EARTHWORMS… Ewww… And the task of unhooking the fishes went to one of our helper.

But unfortunately I wasn’t lucky enough to catch any fishes...!! :-( They used to get stuck on the hook but the second I pulled up the rod from the water, the fishes used to jump back right in. And I also had caught a BIG ONE too… L Our other fishermen caught good numbers , even my 11yr old cousin caught 3 fishes. But it doesn’t matter coz I just loved this new experience. And am planning to do it again. Hopefully I’ll catch many this time.

my cousins fishing....!!!

Last thought – I LOVE FISHING

Hey U guys … If u haven’t done fishing yet, then u should definitely try it. I am sure u’ll enjoy it too….!! J

Snacking on fruit...!!!

Hey Salaam...

Last night while i was shopping with my cousins, i saw a Grape Stall... While passing by that stall, i just pulked up a grape and ate it without asking as if it was the most normal thing to do.... And i just kept walking by feeling i never did anything weird. And i actually had really FUN doing that.. coz i never had imagined i would do something like that. hehehehe.... Its not like i was shoplifting or something na... !!!! And i did the same thing with another grapes stall. hehehehe.. !! :-) I did it twice.. !!!!

I thought this was something really different or a weired thing to do and is it in the poor form to simply pick up the fruit displayed and eat it while your shopping.. !!! I felt a little guilty too, but never mind coz we bought some grapes after that.. !!! :-)

I found the whole thing very trashy.....!! :-)

So you guys have done something really funny or weired things .. tell me...!!!! :-)
