Keema is my son Otu’s favorite. He really loves his non vegetarian food. Even now he is drooling all over by just watching the pics of Keema 😛

Thursday Treats – Ugly Duckling

Ugly Duckling

This one was blown out of proportion, somewhat due to my lack of interest in this project, and some because I just ran out of the yarn, to give a proper finishing touch to it.  😦

But, nevertheless kids loved this ugly duckling, so no regrets.  🙂

Some of the facts about ugly Duckling –

  • Ugly Duckling is a fairy tale written by Danish poet Hans Christian Andersen.
  • Story of Ugly Duckling is not inspired from any local or traditional fairy tale. It was all Hans imagination.
  • It is assumed that strange looks of Hans in his childhood actually inspired him to write about Ugly Duckling.
  • This story is adapted by Disney in many of it’s movies and plots.

Enjoy!!!

 

Tuesday Text – The Astral

 The Astral - by Kate Christensen
The Astral – by Kate Christensen

I wanted to write about “The Astral”, last Tuesday only, but couldn’t do so. Reason – What to write about?

This book is so boring and have no story whatsoever. It’s a two line story of a husband whose wife throws him out because she doubts on him having an affair with his best friend. That’s it.

Nothing exactly happens other than this husband roaming around in streets, and trying to figure out what happened to him. Seriously, nothing happen after that.

Point to note, Astral is the name of building, where our hero/husband stays. So, this novel has nothing to do with the real meaning of Astral.

Read it if you want to read a well written novel (without a story). it’s good English. Written perfectly. Alas, not my type. 😦
