banoffee pie

after the cheese cake success story she decided to put her mind, body and soul to prepare a banofee pie. simply put banana + toffee pie. its much simpler said than done. though i did not help her in her quest to make a wonderful banoffee, non the less pestered her enough to make sure i get it on by the evening. well as she puts it "thats my return gift to you all" as that was the day of her birthday. lucky me i got a large chunk of the return gift without actually giving a gift on the first place. well as people say बहती गंगा में हाथ धोंना ।


well, since yesterday i have been day dreaming of the banoffee pie to made by our in-house master chef. finally in the afternoon could get a glimpse of the hypnotic dessert. yep the way slices of banana's were placed in concentric circles it was hypnotic. and what it what was hiding beneath was yet to be discovered. spent the entire afternoon in anticipation of what it would taste like (as this was my first banoffee pie).

finally by the evening we got the green signal, soon we'll be putting whipped cream on top of the banoffee. oops! but who stole my cream. actually probably we forgot to get the cream. and this is where i played my role going place. running between my home and the grocery store. finally we got three different pack of cream of three different expiry dates. but all of them expired.

as the decision was being made to wait for a day and get fresh cream probably the decision makers could see my lustful eyes all drooling to have a bite of that pie.

and they took pity on me. finally we replaced the whipped-cream with ice-cream.

well after the first bit i realised cream or no cream, hardly makes any difference.

it was a perfect indulgence in itself. now i came to know the fresh slices of bananas were hiding a some creamy core supported by a crunchy crust. all this in one bite.

well i won't be sharing the recipe. as i don't want to share good things with strangers.

surely you can go to the nearby bakery and if are lucky enough get a such a slice for yourself.

blogging

if blogging is rocket-science, i guess i'll soon fly.

friends

often we spend time looking for friends on orkut, on facebook. friends from the bygone years. we add the to our friends list in msn or yahoo chat.
and then they become just some silent inactive names in our list.

what exactly do we want. why do we add people to our lives if we don't want them to be.

is looking for old aquaintances a fad?


"hey! i found my childhood crush on orkut, its so cool"
after that we look at her honeymoon pictures and stop scrapping her. what did we expect. don't we look into the mirror haven't we changed. how boring probably we have become.

then why don't we expect the world to change around us.
