on her own turf: Day 13 - Overanalyze this, and that!
http://piya-jayaraj.blogspot.com/2015/06/day-13-overanalyze-this-and-that.html
On her own turf. Thursday, June 18, 2015. Day 13 - Overanalyze this, and that! Now that work deadlines and season five of GoT has come to an end (sob! Its time to sit down and write again. Just the other day I stumbled upon an article written by an author whose writing I quite enjoy. She had written a piece about the movie Dil Dhadakne Do and how it shows women in a bad light. I am not sure how many of you have seen the movie. But if you have, what is your opinion? I would love to hear from you! Chocolat...

on her own turf: Moving onto the other side
http://piya-jayaraj.blogspot.com/2014/07/moving-onto-other-side.html
On her own turf. Saturday, July 5, 2014. Moving onto the other side. Why don’t you buy an e-reader, like a Kindle or something? A year back, I would have considered that question rather abhorrent. Enough to elicit a reaction that involved rolling of eyes and flaring of nostrils. And even before I realized, the words would be out of my mouth. “NOOOOO WAY! HOW CAN YOU READ FROM THAT “THING”! Now, that 'THING' is what I stare at most of the time. The story goes something like this. You can imagine how much ...

on her own turf: The Craving
http://piya-jayaraj.blogspot.com/2013/04/the-craving.html
On her own turf. Friday, April 5, 2013. That is the color. Not red, no, …definitely not an orange. Liked to draw attention to the nuances while narrating a recipe. She would dip her index finger into the thick paste and show it to her elder daughter. “Once you have ground all the ingredients, this should be the color.”. As a child, Lata always looked forward to Wednesdays. She would wait for school to end and walk back home twice as fast longing to taste her mother’s signature dish –. The clock struck 4 ...

on her own turf: Day 11 - The city that means home
http://piya-jayaraj.blogspot.com/2015/05/post-11-city-that-means-home.html
On her own turf. Wednesday, May 27, 2015. Day 11 - The city that means home. You know a while back I had started this section on the blog called Out of Focus. Let us revive that as a part of this 30-day challenge, shall we? This photo was taken two years ago when I was on board my father’s ship. He happened to be posted in Kochi during that time and we as a family grabbed the chance to spend one entire day on board. Boy, was it fun! Isn't she a beauty? Labels: Out of Focus. I would love to hear from you!

On her own turf. Monday, February 6, 2012. As I waited for my steak. 8221; The waiter raised an eyebrow. “Would you like to try something Indian? What about some naan and butter chicken? I can get you some salad by the side as well”. Yang Lee nodded his head. He was all game to experiment. Two tables behind him sat three wives of very hard working men. W1 : “No! I am not lying! Tanya IS going to France this summer.”. W2 : “Reaaaalllllyyyyy? Her poor husband. he works so hard for her nooo? W3: “Ok, ...

on her own turf: Thoughts on reading Sheryl's note to Dave
http://piya-jayaraj.blogspot.com/2015/06/thoughts-on-reading-sheryls-note-to-dave.html
On her own turf. Thursday, June 4, 2015. Thoughts on reading Sheryl's note to Dave. I came across Sheryl Sandberg’s note about her husband last evening. I had tears in my eyes even before I reached midway. The trauma, the heartache, the void – she pours her heart out in honest words and thanks every single person who has been her rock during her darkest hours. Millions of supporters offer her their prayers and well wishes pour in from various parts of the globe. I would love to hear from you! Reading and...

on her own turf: Who am I?
http://piya-jayaraj.blogspot.com/2011/10/anyone-who-inhabits-city-is-bound-to.html
On her own turf. Monday, October 17, 2011. Anyone who inhabits the city is bound to cross my path sometime or the other. Over the years I have made many acquaintances in not just the maalishwalas and taxiwalas, but also the bada saabs, their memsaabs, chauffers and not to mention their bachcha - bachchis. Though my role is never spoken about, I know I feature somewhere in their livelihood. Even movie stars would like to pay me a visit, but even before our eyes meet, the paparazzi whisk them away. The vas...

on her own turf: Awakening the Social Animal
http://piya-jayaraj.blogspot.com/2012/01/awakening-social-animal.html
On her own turf. Friday, January 6, 2012. Awakening the Social Animal. One can't complain. I have my friends. Someone spoke to me only yesterday. Eeyore, From Winnie the Pooh by A. A. Milne. The first minute I laughed as I pictured Eeyore saying this in his gloomy-yet-loveable manner! The next minute I was introspecting. I have developed this habit of organizing my thoughts in bullet points. So you will be seeing many more of those in the coming days.). 8226; Apart from the hordes of book and movies, my ...
