Ahoy Amigos! So, it’s that time of the year when a whole lot of bloggers are whipping up their pens, or polishing their keyboards, and gearing up with bated breath for the much awaited AtoZ Challenge 2017. I’m a complete newbie to this but I’m so very excited.

#ClickAndBlogAStory: Put the Stress to Rest

#ClickAndBlogastory #week 5 #stress   Put the stress to rest I have been the kind of person who gets stressed in some situations and at the same time be calm as a cucumber around the most challenging ones. Over the years I have realised that getting stressed does not solve the problem. It just makes it larger than life.  What exactly is stress?

10 Day “You” Challenge: 5 Foods

#ALLABOUTME #BLOGCHALLENGE 5 FOODS I am a die-hard foodie. I guess it’s the Bengali genes. But then the Bihari DH loves food as much as I do. Food makes me happy, food perks me up on a gloomy day, food is elixir to my soul. On some days I think to myself if I was not such a foodie, I would be so slim and svelte. But then, I believe, life is meant to be savoured and enjoyed; and what better way…
