Pink and me !!!

Jai ho! jai ho! jai ho to the 'pink chaddi' campaign.
February 2009 was seen as a remarkable month that created history in itself. The attack by the Rama Sena activists on a bunch of Mangalorean girls had the whole nation in spits of fury. This shameful act by the RSS activist under the 'able guidance' of Mr. Pramod Mutalik not only got the entire nation together ,but also displayed the power of 'the woman of today'.

The 'pink chaddi' campaign started a new revolution in itself. Never before in my life had I ever realised the importance and the power of the colour 'pink'. Not that I am a racist , but much opposed to my origin as a 'woman' I never really supported or liked the colour pink. My humble apologies to all the ladies out there if I have broken your heart by this statement. I always felt that the colour pink depicts something very delicate and fragile. The colour , I felt could not stand alone by itself and would constantly need the backing of another colour to depict itself, unlike colours like black , blue or white , that came across and strong and independent colours.

Little did I know that the colour pink was worthy much more than what I was treating it for. The colour proved its worth with the kick- start of the 'pink chaddi' campaign. Not that I have added a dash of pink my life after this, but yes it did change my perspective a bit :)

an autobiography....of a cooking pan

Screech screech screech shriek scratch and scratch ... can’t you be a gentle on me. You know I have a sensitive skin. If you continue rubbing so hard against me I’ll have my entire face bruised in no time. Ouch ouch ouch!!! That hurts! Stop it , I say . Just stop it!At least put some of that thick slimy liquid so that the lather protects my skin. Gosh I am so scared. I am telling you it’s so not easy being cooking pan. I alone know what torture I am subjected to each and everyday of my life, and there is no one I can even complain to about all this mess. Do you know what happened last night ? NO, obviously not! How would you know. You just sit here in this cosy . Well anyway.. .. so I was telling you about what happened yesterday. This mortal picked me up at the middle of the night to satisfy his hunger pangs , and of all the things in the world he decides to cook these snake like thing in me. I so detest them as they always stick on to me like glue. So he puts this thing on me and totally forgets about it while I burn my ass off on those hot flames for a good 45 minutes, and when he came back half of that snaky stuff ((think they call it something named ‘maggi’) was stuck on to me for eternity.Ah!!! That’s why I had come to you for a quick scrub massage to exfoliate my skin and get that glow back. !
