Food review: Blue bird masala penne pasta

Image
While I was buying groceries, I noticed Blue Bird 5 minutes pasta in mast masala flavor. I bought it to try it. The ingredients looked okay. It did not contain refined wheat flour (surprise). Condiments in the taste maker included chilly, pepper, salt, sugar, fenugreek along with other dried vegetables. The penne get cooked in 7-10 minutes. I like my pasta well done, so took about 10 minutes; however al Dante will be within 7 minutes. I also used additional vegetables such as onion, capsicum, carrots, and broccoli. After stir frying the vegetables, I added the pasta and the taste maker. I was feeling adventurous so I added oregano and chilly flakes too. The result was this The pasta tasted delicious. The taste maker works well. Without the vegetables, it would not taste so good. Overall rating: 7/10 Makes a good lazy meal however additional vegetables and condiments are still required.

Book review: How full is your bucket?

Image
In the beginning of year 2025, I decided that I should start reading more books. For this purpose, I visited my office library.  In our office a library we can borrow a book for 2 weeks. After 2 weeks we have to return the book even if we have not finished reading it. Hence I decided to borrow a book which I can finish within 2 weeks. It should have been a small book which I can quickly read. I pick up a book called " How full is your bucket? " By Tom Rath and Donanld Clifton I have finished reading this book and this is my book. The book focuses on positive aspects of life rather than the negative ones. The book refers to filling the persons mind (bucket) with positive thoughts (diper) to get better outcome.  The book also gives a certain case studies where the positive thoughts or positive interactions resulted in better outcomes. There are also stories where the person had negative experience or negative thoughts which led to decreased performance of that indiv...

Sweatshirts from men's section

Image
I love swraters and sweatshirts. As someone who always needs sweatahirts, here is a perspective on buying sweatshirts.  I have noticed a lot of differences between sweaters, sweatshirts, and cardigans across women's section and men's sections. I prefer buying sweatshirts from men's section. This is why 1. Interesting patterns While women's sweatshirts have effiminate patterns such as florals, men's sweatshirts have a variety of patterns like solid colors, camouflage, plaids, checks which are rarely seen in women's collection. 2. Fabrics  Women's sweatshirts are mostly made with acrylic wool, whereas men's sweatshirts often use real wood, fleece, or even cashmere in the same price range. 3. Warmth  Owing to use of synthetic or semi synthetic fibers, women's sweatshirts are often thin. They also fail to keep us warm. Due to use of natural fibres, men's sweatshirts are cozy and war. 4. Comfort Due to synthetic fibres, women's sweatsh...

Easy sustainable changes

In the beginning of year 2024, I had decided that I will start living sustainably. Write from the beginning of this year. I started various ways by which I will adapt to sustainable living. Based on what I read I started making some changes in my lifestyle. These are some of the changes which I made in my lifestyle which are proven to be sustainable habits. 1. I bought cotton handkerchief so that I can stop using paper towels on tissue papers.  As of today, I have completely stopped using paper towels. Now I only use the cotton handkerchief which is washable and reusable. 2. I had a lot of plastic bottles in my household. These plastic bottles were sustainable and reusible. However, I had given these plastic bottles for recycling.  I purchased steel bottles instead of cheap and fancy  looking plastic bottles. The stainless steel bottles are not only sustainable and reusable,  they are also long-lasting. They will not contribute to micro plastics. 3. I have stopped bu...

My weird dream (feat Prince William)

My weird dream My sister and I were supposed to attend some fancy event (I guess). We were wearing our regular/street clothes and carrying our special clothes with us. While on our way, we decidee to visit our grandmother whose house was on our way (spoiler: both grandmothers are in the heaven). Her house was potentially haunted. We decided to go to her home and change clothes there. The way to her home was muddy and slippery. I tell my sister that our clothes will get dirty. Yet, we still decide to stick to our plan. On the way, we see horses lined up. Beautifully regal, tall horses. I see a brown or black majestic horse standing. He starts to run but slips and tumbles down. Even in my dream, I feel the pain. I suddenly see a tall, handsome man running towards the horse. He was wearing light blue collared tshirt tucken in white trousers. I see his face and he is none other than Prince William ЁЯШ▒ And, my alarm stars buzzing and I wake up.
