It was the first break in work from 10:45 to 11:15. I came here and answered some notifications. That is the best use one can make of the short breaks in between.. I had no appetite for morning fruit snacks after a heavy breakfast of aloo paratha ( Indian bread stuffed with spicy potato masala) and coriander chutney.It was delicious and I had two big ones. Now I should be okay till my lunchtime. It is another day with bright sun, pleasant breeze, and cool temperature. I washed few soft toys and they are basking in sun.The two cushions from my couch are in the washing machine as I write this post My other session starts at 11:15 and I have few more minutes to be hereThat would be my last session for the day and I would be done by 12:30. Simple lunch of dal ( lentil soup) and cabbage and carrot fry is ready. I just need to cook rice after work is over. Rice is washed and soaked and so will cook fast. A fresh new week has started and I hope it's a happy week for all mylotter friends Catch you all later. Have a good time

Even I have Mylot sessions like this at times. Now a days, there is a shift. Instead of the "almost" everyday morning tea sessions, I now sometimes have session - short ones mostly in the evening or night. Longer ones are during the weekends. Big or small paranthas (or parathas- whatever !!) can make one last for long! Here we have pleasant weather with a lot of cloud cover. Last two days it has rained and while it makes one feels good, it has made Delhi roads filled with a lot of water and as usual the Newsmen have the "masala" news of submerged roads, waterlogging and jams. Somehow nobody seems to have any solution for this annual problem.

@arunima25 And this is a big issue across many cities and towns in India. Not much is done for these issues over the years.

I have not been online much since yesterday afternoon. I got too busy with other things and mostly work from school. Water logging is a big problem and no one cares about this annual problem. So many die falling in those potholes on roads every year in Mumbai and nobody cares.Already more than 25 lives lost like that in this year so far

@arunima25 This is new to me. Have never eaten on getting up or getting up in the middle of the night and eating something I am not a diabetic and so not sure what is causing this.

Oh! I see. Will a midnight snack or early morning bite help.? Not a good way to start the day with a hunger pang.

@allknowing I have my dinner at 7 and then around 10 before brushing my teeth and going to bed, I have a cup of milk with turmeric and a small banana. That helps me else my sugar sometimes goes high in the morning or very low. When I wake up and after freshen up, I take some almonds and walnuts. It's an hour before my exercise.

@LadyDuck We always had rain after May. But this year it's more than other years. Many places in our state are flooded.

I love to have aloo Paranthas even in the dinner with chutney. It's been a busy day at work for me. It rained today in the morning and it's drizzling now.

I can have aloo paratha for any meal. And I love to have breakfast items for dinner. I saw the news today and we could see the water logging in Delhi and NCR. Hope it is not much of an inconvenience there.

We had a beautiful sunny and warm day, too. Your food sounds delicious. I don’t think I have tried lentil soup. Have a good time, too.

We call it daal. It's actually boiled lentils with some spices. And if you want you can add veggies of your choice and do some seasoning with mustard and cumin seeds in ghee. That adds to the flavor.

Are you eating brown rice. I just wondered because you mentioned it is soaked before cooking.

I eat brown rice thrice and white on other days. Soaking the white one also is good as it gets soft and cooks fast. Brown one needs longer hours of soaking.

@yoalldudes It needs a lot of water too. While we add double to white one, brown one might need a little more than triple.
