Days have passed, and thoughts and feelings, heat and time, people and places, and ideas and irks have bled into each other. Friday we finished writing and creating a technical educational video, and it was really satisfying. I love working on technical videos. I like working on all videos, but the stretch that tech videos give me is lovely.
Today, a friend and I went to Chowpatty in town. Oh, it was glorious! We sat on the mats on the beach, had a bowl of gobhi manchurian (which is one of my absolute favorite kinds of Indian Chinese) and kulfi falooda. It was rich, cool malai kulfi with sabza seeds and a touch of rose syrup...so cool, creamy, treacly and gorgeous!
Then we went for a drive up Walkeshwar and Malabar Hill, and then we drove to Navy Nagar - quiet and dignified- it is so so lovely! Then we went for dinner to a Himalayan place called 'Across' in Kala Ghoda. Drove back to Dadar from where I headed home. I didn't realize how much I miss town. And today I was glad I could go and see it...before the world changes. With what happened in Pahalgam, you feel something in the pit of your stomach when you see little children and want to hug and protect all of them. And you feel something when you see the Tricolour. A safe sovereign is a precious, precious blessing.
