Nourish-n-Cherish: Vazhga Tamizh!
http://nourish-n-cherish.blogspot.com/2009/05/vazhga-tamizh.html
Tuesday, May 19, 2009. The week-end was spent in California Tamil Academy. Sat was graduation day - completion of a school year. California Tamil Academy. Is an amazing organization - run entirely by volunteers, they teach Tamil to over 3000 children in Bay Area. I really like the setup and the dedication. It gives a sense of belonging in more ways than one. People felt at home - at times, they behaved just as badly as they would in a political rally in India without the lathi-armed police.

Nourish-n-Cherish: September 2009
http://nourish-n-cherish.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Saturday, September 12, 2009. Http:/ NourishNCherish.Wordpress.com. This blog has moved to : http:/ NourishNCherish.Wordpress.com. I can't tell you how this post makes me feel. Emotions are splurging freely, the frame shakes in farewell. I tried wordpress a while ago, and liked some of its features, but I kept putting the final decision away. However, change is the only thing that is constant and all that drivel, later, here I am. See you all at http:/ NourishNCherish.Wordpress.com. The President landed ...

Nourish-n-Cherish: Running does that to you - My First 1/2 Marathon
http://nourish-n-cherish.blogspot.com/2009/07/running-does-that-to-you-my-first-12.html
Tuesday, July 28, 2009. Running does that to you - My First 1/2 Marathon. The ambience was great - a mild drizzle, chill enough to lift the spirits of a nervous first time 1/2 marathoner. As I saw the throng of people waiting to go at the start line, I got a shiver that had nothing to do with the cold drizzle or the temperature - this shiver was triggered entirely by adrenalin. I jostled at the start line smiling nervously at the head of my cheering crew(my husband - who else? Well, then here you go.".

Nourish-n-Cherish: November 2008
http://nourish-n-cherish.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 20, 2008. My grandmother was a vivacious character for her time and age. The mother of nine children, each with their own character like the Navagraha gods - it must have been a humongous task holding the family together. Add to the mix, my grand-father, and you have a gripping sitcom that could run for decades. Note: No movie was considered worth the money if it was shorter than 3 hours and 15 minutes! Ayyo, Visalam, puli vaanganum. We must buy tamarind). You see, they would get to he...

Nourish-n-Cherish: This Day That Age
http://nourish-n-cherish.blogspot.com/2009/08/this-day-that-age.html
Saturday, August 29, 2009. This Day That Age. This day that age. Was met with an impressive. Turns out the fellow doesn't like ice cream, and seldom wore ties. So, we decided to get married. My husband - this day that age. This day this age. I hollered at the breakfast table. * Ignore. A minute later: "You know what? Or similar sounding grunt. IT's hard to reproduce, and a lapse into some important program on TV. Never mind, I forgot what I wanted to say", I said. Happy 8th year anniversary Sweet heart!

Nourish-n-Cherish: December 2008
http://nourish-n-cherish.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 31, 2008. A Condensed Version Please! I would hereby like to thank James Band and the Nadaswaram party for the sore throat they have gifted me with - One that reminds me of the thumping music at the wedding every waking moment. Any attempts at 'Baa Baa Black Sheep' sound like 'Bray Bray Black .' almost a month after the proceedings. The band itself may be construed for cacophony was evidently not thought about when the tradition was "made". It goes like this:. Pour ghee into fire*.

Nourish-n-Cherish: June 2009
http://nourish-n-cherish.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 23, 2009. So, the San Francisco Chronicle found it prudent to run a full-blown report on the shocking incident of birds now attacking people in San Francisco. ( http:/ www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi? Would newspapers actually assign reporters to random street corners waiting for a bird to attack? Or was the bird trained for this in collusion with the reporter? If it is the latter, I would be very sorry for the new lows journalism has taken in this country! This means/implies nothing oth...

Nourish-n-Cherish: When to update Facebook?
http://nourish-n-cherish.blogspot.com/2009/09/when-to-update-facebook.html
Thursday, September 03, 2009. When to update Facebook? I have been meaning to write about Facebook for a while now, when New York times runs this article. Http:/ www.nytimes.com/2009/08/30/magazine/30FOB-medium-t.html. I quote from the article above:. This piece aligns itself with the sort of news I was recently criticizing. If you ask around. This had me dished. How was I supposed to ask around - on Facebook? Clearly, people are quitting the site. How would they answer me? Uhduhscratch. So, are peop...

Nourish-n-Cherish: February 2009
http://nourish-n-cherish.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 25, 2009. I watched Oscars like millions did. Some random points that came to mind:. I did clap when Slumdog Millionaire reaped in the awards, but the logical side of me couldn't concede that the movie was worth 8 of them. I would call it a nice enough movie, but just that. Not great, not wonderful - tad better than mediocre. Another example of how right place at right time far outweighs merit. By moving the children who already made some money to a concrete house? Almost all the dazz...
