Haath jaltha hai tho jalne do!

When you have four burners going on the stove, it's better to clean the stove after the cooking is done, but ithni akal kahan, saaf karne ki bohuth bhooth jo sawaar tha. 

I'd rather get burnt and see the scars than see sticky and oil splutters around the stove. Even while it's cooking i have to constantly keep my surfaces clean, so an accident happened that's going to last few months before i forget it.

So, my dear bubba, please pay attention if you are ever at it. I'm sure you'll try to impress your girlfriend by cooking, but beware of these accidents....ok, doll.

A dear friend of dad's Mohan prasad uncle is no more, a severe loss for the literary world. A well known, highly acknowledged poet. I remember visiting uncles home on my way back from my drawing class in summer holidays when dad was stationed there. Uncle always in white, with cigarette in his hand and their open home next to a rocky mountain in vijayawada. He use to say "paininchi okka rai kuda padindante, mana kuteeram sangatulu inka anthay"..... he'd have a small garden in that patch where the possibility of any rock falling was eminent. I'd look up and wonder...

His daughter, mamta akka went on to win debates at national level and was sent to Germany. Sujata anuty is quite a simpleton. I'll always remember you fondly uncle, i promise to visit aunty the next time i'm there.
