About Fall and Food etc.
Wednesday, October 20th, 2010
The climate in the place I live is fabulous in the fall. Of course this year there have been days where the temperature has gone above average more than a couple of times. And, as usual, as everyone does, I forget if it happened so much last year. Anyhow, it is funny how I have this idea in my head that fall is associated with cinnamon, pumpkins, pies, pastries, and hot coffee. I am sure it is a new state of mind having living in the US for about 12 years now and of course been brainwashed by the ads, coffee shops and the general atmosphere around that , that is how it should be. In India the summer was associated with warm days , cool evenings, the smell of grass in the parks, fresh bhel in the roadside stalls. There was a time when I worked in Kalyani software which is non-existent right now, we all used to go to the roadside pani puri stall and have a good time eating those. Don’t ever remember having an upset stomach because of that. Anyway speaking of more food, I need to go get ready to get some butter braid pastry that will arrive in my daughter’s school! Though these fundraisers are good for the purpose are the butter braids good for you? They certainly taste good!
Have a good fall – ROFL how does that sound? Have a good fall season, much better eh?
Ciao!
