Chocolate Brownie and Vanilla Ice Cream !!!!!!!

Heyi,

Well well well.. Better late an never... Am late but back with a yummy post..

KIND ATTENTION: This post has nothin much to do with the recipes and availability of the mentioned Dessert. Its lot more than that with indepth meaning..

Ok.. Basically when we think or see or hear about a chocolate brownie what comes to our mind is the magic it does to our senses and taste buds.. Hot and cold, Soft and creamy, a bite and a melt.. OK.. Keeping in mind the wellness of my readers am not tempting u people anymore.. But did we ever think why that combination is such a hit or why it is ever made...??

I ve thought of it and i ve come out with a unique perspective.. Again its my archaic viewpoint.. So. I came up with this stuff jus because i was so badly craving for this dessert for a week now and i finally had it on Minda.. I had it with a person who was giving me a lotsa insights on my life and my problems.. Thats when this thought arised.. This dessert is jus like our life.. HOT and COLD.. All of us know there are two sides to life.. Though we haven thought of it very seriously.. So when we jus take a bite.. we feel chillness that we have done it but still we at times burn our toungues.. the same way in life when we get into somethin, there is somethin we have to lose too.. My friend always says.. If u want somethin u should be ready ta sacrifice too.. I wouldn say the brownie is a curse but its like a new lesson in life.. We learn from our mistakes.. When i normally order a brownie.. I order jus to relish it.. Life is the same way.. The only difference is that we don order it but its gifted to us. I know u people will surely curse me for complicating a dessert so much but still... U ll remember me everytime u see the brownie..

There are people around me who hate this combo.. I know they aren part of human.. they gotta be like that Gandhi's monkeys where they should close their eyes nose and mouth and walk around.. They actually qualify to be my enemies but its ok.. I cant hate them jus because of the brownies issue..

So i was jus thinking... Though i burnt my tongue once with a brownie thats the dessert i love like crazy.. I am gonna take life the same way.. I ll learnt ta live and take decisions properly after learnin from my mistake.. So thats it for now..

I ve gotta get back ta my buggin life... Hey i forgot.. We are gonna have a family day at home this coming saturday and am editing fotos ta make them a family tree.. So i am jus thinkin of writing a post on FAMILY.. So here i give u the clue and an option ta read my next post or not..

And here is ur piece of the brownie from above.. I ve had MINE.... !!!!!!!!!

Cheers....

40 Constituencies are MINE !!!!!!!!

hey hey hey... 

Am Smiling... Guess wat. am done almost with my report and so Operation Project Accompolished.. And so in the mean time i was jus thinking bout a few things that were happenin around.. 

As u know yest was election.. i did Vote.. Sowmi !! I Voted... Jus thinking back on this election full Naatak, These were the few things that happened in few TV channels

Pre Election

Sun TV...  Mr.Karunanidhi  gives statements( Hu ha ha ha ha ha), Stills of him showin "Tata" ... Bye Bye..  and he feeds children from his car.. One banana and an egg.. Satthu Unavu(healthy diet)

Kalaignar TV.. All the campaigns of M K Stalin talkin in a hilarious voice.  Doesn leave a stone unturned to say Ms.Jayalalitha is whatever whatever.... 

Not to forget the the most important thing which both the above channels telecast...

Karunanidhis activities from Breakfast to Lunch.. (His Fast)

Jaya TV... This has been one of the most popular channels during election campaign time. Jayalalitha was spinnin to different places every suburb sayin Mr.Karunanidhi and his family are a group of gangsters.. The channel shows documentart on jayalalitha with life history !!! Naalai Namathe Natpathum Namadhe..

Post election

On the day of election when the polls are taking place.. 

Sun TV.. AIADMK voters cause problem in the polling booth !!!

Jaya TV.. Lot of the Citizens name are not there in the voters list.. This is planned against people who are prospects voting for AIADMK

Kalaignar TV... Mr.Karunanidhi is talking sayin "100 percent victory is mine"...

I seriously have no clue as to what gets into these people only during those 1 month when they start accusing each other and boasting about even having served one child at an ashram which any tom dick and harry is doing right now... its so irritating

Cheers

Cashing On Innocence !!!!

Heyi,

Today is Akshaya Tritiya.  I hope U know Wat it is but in case if u aren sure its an auspicious day in the Chithirai month. To know about it more you can visit my friend Sowmis post.

So, How did this suddenly turn up.  Then, Akshaya trithiya was a festival day and people donated money or fed poor people. Now, it is a day of spend thrifts buying Gold.  And the reason conveyed by them is that their wealth increases and amount of Gold income increases. This is the most amusing and absurd reason a person can give for buying gold.  

Where this concept suddenly hibernated from is mysterious and when this all started is very easy to answer.  It picked up very recently, if i remember nothing more than 8 years ago when this concept became popular over night.  Is not brainless for people to believe in these things. 

Coming to the chief issue of this post.  I always am interested in the suplementary papers which come along with newspapers. One fine morning a week ago, i just took the newspaper in my hand and found it bulky than the normal. I opened to find inside an annexure with a header AKSHAYA TRITHIYA.. I was Flabbergasted. They normally do this only during New Year and Diwali.  Where did this come in suddenly.? I first felt that it was of no use but then those attractive Jewel designs tempted me to look through(Am another Normal Girl too !!!) I read through to find out that it was the biggest marketing Gimmick which can be played with the public ever.  With the rising price of gold, and recession taking the front seat, Man ! they advertise Gold for 6 whole Sides of a newspaper.  Point number 1: They should be nuts ! or Point Number 2: We, the public should be nuts ! But sometime of reading conveyed what their point was. They were MAKING the public nuts.  What cheek they should have to advertise saying "Buy a Gold Coin and get a Silver Coin of equal weight absolutely free" and "Rs.50 less per gram" and "Free Gold Coins, Free ! Free ! Free !" and top it all "Showroom Opens at  7:30 AM on Akshaya Tritiya day" why don't our people ever understand that the marketers are trying to make a fool of us to gain profit for themselves.   

Apart from these worthless, meaningless advertisements are newspaper notifications saying Police have setup parking lots and will be actively controlling traffic.  This route has been shifted here and that route there.  Come on guys! Are you bonkers, You have nothing to do through the day or what. !!! These shops are Cashing on the innocence of people and their superstition. When do we realize that we are being used as pawns on a chess board for them to save their King position. This also makes people who are facing financial problems follow this superstition this increasing their problems.    

To my readers who are reading this. If you want to invest on something on this day, invest on Goodwill. Try Making a persons one day meal or a child's education or donate money or give away old clothes. Make a deprived persons day rather than making your neck beautiful for a party.   

Cheers

Lovely ZooZoos !!!!!!!

Heyi

Makes you think huh ? And here i present before you my current craze... ZOOZOO !!!!!

Now you might wonder what this is !! This is the latest edition of Vodafone marketing strategy.  

These days marketing has become so important that a company concentrates on marketing more than any other functional areas.  This takes me back to our marketing and consumer behavior classes where we used to discuss bout " Whats in an Ad" but right now its turned into "Whats not in an Ad" Big Companies for example Pepsi, Airtel, Vodafone all have their other functions right from manufacturing to packaging outsourced while they do marketing inside the company.  

Now coming to our Zoozoo.. He has become a heartthrob and an icon overnight after his launch. The few famous services he has marketed include Vodafone Beauty Tips, Phonebook back up, Musical Greetings.. Where the hell do they find these kinda things God only knows.  Hats off to their Creative Department. And his name is attractive too.. Apart from all this u know where they have scored.  Zoozoo is made world famous by his usage as even emoticons on sites like Facebook and few other community sites.. Apart from there he is being promoted so hard and has become the current brand ambassador.. Who under the sun needs Big B, SRK or sachin when they have the cutest models like this in town. Creating waves with the most innovative campaigns like this Vodafone stands really close to every customers heart(though their services are a bit not upto the campaigns mark). It can be overlooked as the brand always stands strong.. Now thats what people call impressive and Great Marketing.. Hey other players.. Hearing it out???

Cheers                                                                                                         

Post Valentine' Day !!!

heyi,

Back again after this gap.  Though i did nothin these days other than sittin on the system all day long not knowin wat to do. I jus din feel like posting somethin. But its my friends sudden suggestion that made me write this post.

As per the above topic(am sorry bout this kind of bookish sentences, but this is wat i majorly gained from MBA, polishing and varnishing english) if u readin this post thinking its my valentine' day experience am sorry its not so spicy.  i ve jus commented a bit on the duller side.

Valentine' Day and Lover' Day and Feb 14(all mean the same) creating so much hype. It came and its gone. Its gone as yet another boring day.  All i did on this sweet cute saturday was to call up my friends, have a conversation and listen to their Valentine Woes.. My dearest friend had such a big row with his girl on his date ending up at office suddenly to check mails with movie tickets going waste.  And yet another two closest nut case friends of mine never met their partners(so din I, thats apart). And finally one more couple(i thot they were) never wished each other even.  So this was one of the coolest Valentine' Day i experienced from my 13th age.  

I atleast wanted ta make up for that PINK Whatever Campaign and so i wore Clothes in Pink.I sat with my laptop breakin my head ta type my first reprt for my project. So that was my Valentine' Day special. 

So comin ta this most celebrated Valentine' Day thing. What are we doin to love?? Marketing it? Restricting it to a day? Celebrating it jus for 24 hours? Then what is love for. Love is meant to be throughout the year, 24*7. Close ur eyes and he/she stands in front of you. That moment is also ur Valentine' Moment. Daily is ur Valentine' Day. Do u forget ur sweetheart all the other days and remember suddenly on Valentine' Day.

Hey people come on yaar, Marketers are tryin to make a fool of us and media is playin games. We common people don understand it and we land up giving them that profit which their looking for. 

Anyway, am not against Valentine' Day, cause even I know what love is. And I know it lots.  So lets celebrate our love and love each other eveyday of our life. And let everyday be our Valentine' Day....

Cheers
