Dabba Walaaa...

It was a bright afternoon, I decided to step out to any of the eateries to buy something for the lunch...
I was already fixed to buy a soup, stepped into a Eatery outlet called, "Pret", while Paying I was on call wid mom and Accidentally had punched in the wrong pin for my debit card.. :(

I punched the wrong pin thrice and while I tried the forth time, my card got locked :( and what an embarrassment it was, I had to cancel my take away... and tell the guy that I would return back after drawing some cash...
had no cash left in my purse and this was the only card I had, with no other option I had to return to the office and Called my Hubby dear and informed him about the entire thing, he wanted to come to my office and take me out for lunch, but I did not have much time so denied him saying that I would have some cereals (which I always have in my cupboard) and some Broccoli left at my desk...
He reluctantly agreed...

I came back, started to have broccoli's until I got a call from my Hubby, he said he was downstairs in front of my office with the Lunch....
I was surprised and merrily happy... ran downstairs, to see that he had brought a big lunchbox for me, a wholesome lentil soup, a yogurt and cherry dessert and a detox Ginseng Drink :) from "Pret" ( where I was embarrassed earlier)

I was initially not wanting all of them coz I was on a strict diet with a calculated amount of calorie intake...But then my hubby persuaded me to have the whole for the lunch, and said "Dear I have got the Lunch Box for you!, and this this does not happen everyday, do enjoy!".

Really felt so very happy and thrilled about the whole thing...
He handed over me the lunch and walked back to his office, I came back and started relishing stuffs one after the other...and just loved the Lunch for the day offer :P :P

It was truly a dabba walaa's treat :)

Thank u Hubby dear :)

Green Love!

"Oh dear, just cant stop looking at you... it was my mistake of letting you starved... :(
I just cant see you die and whither away... Please wake up, show me ur bright smile u shower on me as u do every single day!
Hope to see u alrite by the evening...love you so much!"

My emotions had no bounds and was almost about to shed a tear, when I saw my Fittonia (a show plant) at my desk...
Accidentally I had forgotten to water her for two continuous days... n she never complained nor yelled at me, for treating her so badly...
But I must confess it was all my fault... of letting her starve... :(

Fed her some water, did this for every half an hour for the first of the day until I saw some of her leaves blooming back to normal, did this until every single leaf was alrite and looked happy enough!

Each time I watered, prayed God for her betterment and to forgive me...was restless until I saw her alrite, guess what she was showing the signs of improvement and was perfectly fine by the evening :)

Though they are plants, who cant respond as humans or animals, do they sense love and they do have emotions, this was told by mom wen I was a kid.
Must say my mom treats her plants like kids and she is never tired of having more than 100 and change kids ;) though she does not have a formal garden, she grows them in pots, she has 3 trees, 2 neem and 1 almond and she loves them, she grows tomatoes, coriander, mint, chillies, curry leaves, banana and many more in her well maintained pots, she spends almost 2-3 hrs a day looking after them, watering them, cleaning out the weeds if any, fertilizing them every 3 months.. she never thinks that as one of her house hold chores, she once had said that they were too like us ( me n my brother ;)

And probably this feeling and the love for plants had a strong influence on me and this I discovered only when I started to live with my husband...
A new home, new things, everything was set but still I was not satisfied and sense of incompleteness haunted me... until a New plant "Anthrium" was brought home...
From then on there were at least 2 or 3 plants at home until they withered away due to bad weather conditions ( England's weather )
At the moment I have 2 succulent plants, one Anthrium, one African Marigold and sweet Basil and the happiness is immensely infinite... while I water them, see them grow and see them glare in green and white under the bright sun :)

Wish to have a huge garden of my own and grow as many plants I like ! Or may be a Kitchen garden :) hope this dream of mine comes true...

This is my Love affair with the Green ;)
