Best thing about curly hair: we had a cup game at the office today where the person who kept the cup on their head the longest would win. The cup on my curly head did not even move. Easiest win ever!

Look at the wonderful top I ordered. I am thankful for Amazon returns that take back incorrect products. Still, how would a pretty coral top turn out to be a bunny apron? Anyway, I am thankful for the Amazon era.

Yes, I had to start my workday by logging out of yesterday’s login. But that also meant I had a flexible workday yesterday when I could rush off for a family emergency. Looking at the silver linings, in this economy a work-from-home job is truly a boon.

Four hours of travel to and fro, all after a nine-hour shift. It was a family matter, and though tiring, the restaurant we visited was a good experience. Good food, a happy tummy, and a moment of joy at the end of a long day.

I have been waiting for the Inktober prompts, checking Substack daily. They have finally released the prompts, and I am one happy artist who has already started planning Inktober 2026 illustrations in my head.

The moon is so big, bold, and beautiful tonight. I spent some time just staring at it. How awesome is the God who created it all!

Our home would have been so boring without my siblings. I am so thankful for the unique eccentricities each of them brings to our lives. Thank You, Lord, for blessing me with these two!

I bought this tapestry from my own store about a year ago. I wanted to hang it in the new house, but we had no clear idea how to do it without damaging the gypsum wall plaster with the clips. The only alternative was to hang it from the tube light clips, but we needed a tall person for that.
Almost six months in, I finally got to hang it up because my brother came over to visit. So thankful to finally see it up on the wall!

We don’t really celebrate Onam pompously. But Mom always remembers the season and cooks traditional dishes over the span of two weeks, rather than saving them all for Thiruvonam. Usually, by the time Thiruvonam arrives, we end up with a simple lunch of just one or two dishes because we have already enjoyed them earlier.
This year, surprisingly, many of the dishes carried over to Thiruvonam day. My plate was actually full with curries, and it really felt like a proper Onam Sadhya- with fish, of course. No strict vegetarian Sadhya here!
A thank you, Every day
