Vegebernation - A state of hibernation in which 'Daily Ramblings..' went and almost became a vegetable!
This post is dedicated to two nagging sweet friends.. (yeah i know nagging is a bit exaggerated but its not in my blood to say things out straight)
One writes intermittent one-liner e-mails (usually starting with 'kamini') reminding me that I have a blog to write. And the other calls me from the U aaS of A (read local rates :P :D) to tell me the days she has returned from my blog seeing the post 'the silent movie' for the umpteenth time! Its amazing how these guys put up with me..and my sheer indifference (if i dare to call it that). So i just decided to cut it out when both my upset-with-seeing-the-same-post friends asked me (with a million exclamation marks!) when i was going to write my new post, on the same day. :D
I have thought long and hard about the book i am going to write (actually i was thinking more of how I could make the million bucks JKR made with her book :P). I thought long and hard and reached no conclusion. So we take another topic since we have nothing here.
We (means me n my office colleagues) went to aromas today. A coffee-shop facing our office building. I would give it a 3 on 10 for service, 8/10 for food and 6/10 (grinder noise..!!) for ambiance. The most we loved was the food. And i felt nice that I had something new—a Lebanese dish called Mezze Platter. Nice I would say, with 6-7 slices of thin roti-like bread and 3 types of dips. Chef's salad, Veg arabiata, Indian Spicy Chicken pasta and Hazelnut coffee filled our tummies for the rest of the day! AS if this coffee-shop was not enough...another one called 'Gloria's Jeans - the coffee shop' opened its doors to the posh locality. Taste Australia's coffee it seems. I sometimes wonder what would ppl really have to do to market and sell products that are already available in the same area. I know..give it a USP like, come, taste Australian coffee or something like that! :-/
Actually, one needs to be really brilliant to sell something that's already in the market....or do the ppl need to be really stupid to buy it?
PS: Your ruffling thru 'Daily Ramblings...' means a lot to me!
~Thank god for friends and family. Else, I would be a vegetable by now!~
