Our mango tree has started flowering and I can see few small mangoes behind the leaves also. Today a small mango fell from the tree due to heavy wind. It was so fresh that white liquid coming out from the stem. I remembered my childhood days, we used to cut mango and eat with salt. Also we preserved mango in salt water and ate whenever we wished. This is called Karambi Ambuli.
THE DANCE OF THE MUSTARD, THE AROMA OF THE COCONUT OIL WAFTING IN THE SLIGHTLY SMOKY KITCHEN, THE TANG OF THE TAMARIND, THE SUGAR, THE SPICE AND EVERYTHING NICE.... THE MEMORIES OF MOM'S KITCHEN WHERE I USED TO HANG AROUND TO QUENCH MY HUNGER; THE HOPE WAS TO GET THE FIRST TASTE OF ANYTHING MOM'S DISHES OUT BEFORE MY BROS OR SIS'. OH I MISS THOSE DAYS, BUT NOW I WANT TO RECREATE THAT MAGIC- TO REMIND MYSELF, TO LET THE WORLD KNOW ABOUT IT.
