Adra Sakka Adra Sakka!!! A bit of cheer for @itsavista in these days of social distancing. Murankka/Moringa Sambhar , red cabbage, Rice . #veganfood #southindianfood #foodforsoul #vegetarianfood #coindesbobby #stayhome

The times we are in reminds me of a book which I read a while ago and I found it very insightful. It’s a book called The Black Swan by Naseem Nicolas Taleeb. It describes Black Swan as an event which is a rarity, an event of an extreme impact and inspite of its rarity , human nature tries to make it predictable and explainable in retrospect. What I liked about the book is it’s ability to look at unpredictable events and build a mechanism of coping against negative impacts, by exploiting positive impacts the rare event brings on. Yes today s situation demands social distancing and stops me from engaging in so many things and activities. But it has also given me the opportunity to slow down, eat home cooked food instead of processed food, listen to music and work, have a leisurely breakfast with my husband instead of rushing out to catch a tube to work, work from the comfort of my home, eat lunch with my husband, which on a normal scheme of working life would not be possible. I am truly grateful for these little beautiful joys brought by the onset of these strange times. Stay indoors,safe , be kind and in the words of wise Stephen Fry” You have to give yourself permission to feel”#coindesbobby #noiselessworld #blackswantheory #solitude #soliloquy

There is something invigorating and reassuring watching a spicy tangy rasam boiling in a pot filling the kitchen with an aroma of coriander, pepper and reminiscence of my mother’s kitchen. Rasam has always been a comfort food for me , so I rustled up this for a bit of warmth and calm. It has homemade spices of two mothers from two different continents on both sides of London,a perfect cure for these days of social distancing!!!! #comfortfood #veganfood #southindianfood #southindianrasam #orangerasam #foodforsoul #coindesbobby #socialdistancing #nostalgiafood #homecookedfood

For the love of books and libraries !!! I would not be where I am today without books. Happy World Book day !!!! “That's what I love about reading: one tiny thing will interest you in a book, and that tiny thing will lead you to another book, and another bit there will lead you onto a third book. It's geometrically progressive - all with no end in sight, and for no other reason than sheer enjoyment.” from The Guernsey Literary and Potato peel pie Society #worldbookday2020 #worldbookday #loveofbooksandreading #library #librarylove #tromso #coindesbobby

Thank you !!!! Gratitude for the joys of life, they seem very small but are so precious. #friendshipgoals #coindesbobby #mumbaifood #indiatrip2020 #bayroutemumbai #bayroutepowai #gratitudejournal

“Let us be grateful to the people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.” – Marcel Proust #friendshipgoals #mumbai#coindesbobby

Tromsø Cable car/ Fjellheisen cable car gives you amazing view of the city and sometimes a chance to see Aurora borealis. We did not get see the elusive Aurora but were treated to this view of the city dazzling in the winter night and a clear star studded sky. #tromso #tromsolove #visittromsø #visittromso #tromsonorway #norge #norway #tromsomoment #travelblogger #wintertravel #traveltribe #coindesbobby #fjellheisentromsø
