2014 as been a fantastic year
even though I had started the year with a pain (fracture in my knee and
couldn’t walk for a month) and ended with a pain (foot sprain and homebound for
full month of December.
But then that’s life. Pain is the
part of my life, otherwise this has been a very eventful year.
January witnessed a family
reunion at Jaipur during the family wedding. Even though I was in pain, and the
cold was unbearable for me but spending time with my cousins was rewarding.
During the first three months of the year clicked
pictures for #100HappyDays with my FB virtual friends celebrating life in
pictures
A trip to Krabi and Bangkok
during the month of June was very eventful. Attended a family wedding that was
quite different from the other weddings in the sense it was very informal and
very exciting.
June was also the month of the
release of my cookbook #SindhiCusine, that I launched in Krabi at the beach
party and it has been a great success.
September was the special month,
much excitement over the redevelopment of my 50years old building. I have moved
to a rented place for two years and looking forward to going back to a brand
new house after two years
This year also saw the graduation
in medicine of my niece, of whom I am very proud.
There have been many poetry and
literature events that I have attended during this year but the online story
contest was fun where I grouped with 10 more bloggers and created a story during the month of August to celebrate Blogging.
This year made 20 new friends
during my trip to Lonavala, same age, same taste, a group of friends I hope to
hold on for life.
On the creative front, have made
three paintings in acrylics, all given away in gifts (for house warming and
wedding gifts)
Most of my reading has been done
online, reading stories on Flipboard, ISSU and friend’s blogs but offline, I
have managed to read only six books during this year.
Greatest happiness was that my
school completed 25 years of service and there was a great celebration this
year.
Unfortunately, I lost one close friend
Monika pant who succumbed to Cancer. A good writer and a friend.
Have been very active on my food
blog this year, visiting different restaurants and reviewing products and
hotels. Have made overall around 193 blog posts this year.
Have no plans for the next year, don't know what improvement I need, what went wrong, but I
hope 2015 will be equally good, I will enjoy each day as it comes, savoring
each moment, for the better or for the worse….and yes..I will now learn to walk more carefully on Mumbai roads in future….
