My Experiment with GM Diet – Day 2 - The day of the vegetables! (Part 4 of 10)

The day began with the recommended boiled Potato and the 'suggested' pat of butter on it. I took the suggestionJ. It was absolutely AWESOME and while I was enjoying the Buttered Potato, I realized that I hadn't had a slice of raw boiled potato with 'maska' in ages.
I had woken up early today to prepare the vegetable salad (washing, peeling, slicing, chopping, shredding) the carrots & cabbage and added corn, cucumber etc. Lunch Box packed for the day :)

Day went off fine with the salads ... although it became actually boring to eat raw stuff with no spices etc. I added some salt though or else the veggies might have jumped back into the plate from my throat.

Made it a point to have my usual tea in office in the mornign and evening tea while returning home

At home, had the evening glass of tomato juice and then prepared for the dinner.

Lauki/Doodhi/Bottle Goard or whatever it is called in other languages. I am no fan of this long vegetable and have never really purchased one myself. Not in 14 months of Swiss stay. Not in 14 months of Dubai stay. And here I was faced with the situation of eating boiled lauki. So along with a nice chunk of lauki, I also took one potato and boiled it too. I also sliced and diced a tomato to accompany the boiled and practically tasteless lauki and aloo. All this while I was munching on corn J I just love it !!

The boiled lauki and aloo with a sprinkle of salt and red chilli powder and tomaoto 'seasoning' became my dinner !!
Woah – this was a unique experience in itself !!
End of day 2 (ironing clothes for next day. Shaving at night itself since I had to go to office early tomorrow and I know I can't get up early enough).

Mumbai Local - First Class v/s Second Class

Image
    It is an old joke that the difference in the first class and second class of the Mumbai local trains is that people in first class use deodorants and hence you are exempted from the smelly underarms while travelling. The mute point being; both class of travel experience a passenger overload during the peak hours and you are almost equally squeezed and pushed around in both. Of course, the seats in First Class are cushioned (unlike the hard seats of second class) but then that would make a difference only if you get to sit (which would be a likely probability only if you get into the train from the station it originates). My father holds a first class pass from Churchgate to Andheri (since past 7 years, ever since we moved to Andheri). He often travels by Second class in the evening. Strange, isn't it? This is why he does it … In the First class, there is an unwritten rule that on the seat, only the designated number of people (which is 3) will sit. No sq...

Tongue Twister - V for Vendetta

Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is it vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified, and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose so let me simply add that it's my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V." - V for Vendetta
