Leave a kid in car all alone and go for some shopping. What a terrible thing it would be! I just can’t imagine this as it is disturbing me. It is the extreme of carelessness and must be avoided at any cost to ensure the safety of these little souls. May God keep every kid safe and sound.
-
You are right. It is becoming very common to forget kids in a car and involve in some other activity.

I have seen different colors of lentils but never black.

@Treathyl FOX
It is not as large as the image shows. And as mentioned in my Blog the polished dal is used and not the whole black lentil for making goodies.
-
-
yes it is healthy and tasty too, though a bit heavy on the stomach.
-
I have had no such issues so far. I have been eating dishes made from this lentil for years.

You are steaming them just by tying with a thread. Will they be crispy? I do not think so. They become very soft and may be not to preserve them for more than 6 hours.
-
Anything steamed is never crispy. Are idlis crispy?
-
-
It indeed is healthy. That turmeric and salt that is added while boiling the mackerels takes away its fishy smell.

I know almost all of those you have quoted… also remember; “Scarlett O’Hara was not beautiful but few men noticed when caught by her charm.”
“The Third Camel died at dawn.”

Yes. They are all great people. I think you are having some knowledge in Literature. But I am not. So the only thing I can do is just to appreciate the good writers and persons having good taste in literature. Thank you.

Opening lines are very not only in the writing of novels but also on academic works. I remember the days when I was to write my final year project my supervisor made me realized that my abstract must capture it all. That it must summarize the whole section of my project works. To put it shortly quality of opening lines cannot be overemphasized.
-
My Masters were asking us to write the project report. They were taking them to their houses and were making corrections. They were giving instructions in pen so that a student can remember the things well.

All great authors know how important an opening line is to grab the reader’s attention and instantly connect with them. But there is no opening line ever written that will ever be better than the one penned by Charles Dickens to introduce the reader to “A Tale Of Two Cities.” 🙂
-
I don’t think they are all necessary nowadays. People do not bother about the great opening and great closure. They want essence. They want information but not transformation. The transformation is already taking place and will take place without any effort. So they concentrate more on information.
-
-
yes. Those are great lines.
-
Yes. These opening lines and closing lines are meant for those who used to sit comfortably after their lunch and dinner in the open air. They need have to worry about their comforts not at all. They were thinking and knitting their words. I do not think they were doing that also. I can say that they wrote for their next generations. Who taught them about these closings and openings? No one I think.
-
This one fits Stephen King’s definition of great opening line: “Listen. Come in here. You want to know about this.”
-
Some very great quotes indeed!

We used to watch a lot of cooking shows when we had cable TV. We still watch a lot via the public television station but not as much as before. Checked and found some videos available on YouTube. Have to set aside a time to take a look. Thanks for mentioning. Love cooking shows! 🙂

I took this topic to write a Blog on because it has a different concept this time. The participants are those who are holding great positions and yet have a passion for cooking – something that will encourage others in similar positions. Cooking is mostly shunned by this category.
Good topic choice for a blog post. Actually I think I know of an American chef who was a lawyer who decided he wanted to bake! He didn’t get his start through a competition or cooking show. He just decided he wanted to do it! His cakes were unbelievable! 🙂
Do you enjoy cooking or you just do it because you have no other go? I love cooking provided there is some help around to chop and clean. I love creating new recipes. 🙂
Do I enjoy cooking? That’s a tricky question for me. There was once a time when my kids would tell you to make sure to come by our house for traditional holidays like Thanksgiving and Christmas. Yeah! I put my best foot forward and must say my meals were pretty impressive. But now my husband has a health condition that requires me to change everything that I ever knew about cooking and create new recipes or modify my old recipes. Enjoy cooking these days? To be honest. Not so much. It’s very stressful trying to get the meals right for his dietary purposes. But I’m learning how! Because I love my husband. 🙂
Challenges are great no matter where we come across them. You have cooking challenges. Go for them and enjoy when you see your beloved husband relishing what you have cooked for him.
Well! This one is no different than any other reality series but Leaving aside the cynicsm atleast it helped shaped a few careers and inspiring many more.
