When I was a young girl, I used to visit my nanihaal in Jaipur every year in school holidays. My mum, an only daughter, is very close to her brothers and mother. So this was our yearly pilgrimage. We never used to go anywhere else but Jaipur. But those were simpler times before the internet….

Number 40 – Learn to swim

Number 37 – Write my blog for one year straight
I love writing my blog, it is therapeutic for me. I have always been able to pen my thoughts better on paper (electronic paper) in this case. I am a vociferous speaker too as most of my acquaintances will agree but writing helps me channel my energies in a focussed way. When I started my…
Number 36 – Learn to bake a cake
I suck at baking! The best I have done is make the pre-mixed cup cakes and even they have turned out to be ordinary! So you can imagine why this is on my bucket list. For once I want to bake a cake from scratch, one that looks and tastes good! I saw this recipe…
