People started noticing that lately there are no new postings on my blog. The reason is that I am back with a bang in to my routine.
I get up at 5:30 am and go to gym from 6 to 7 then go for golf at 9:30 . After little practice and 9 holes return home by 12.
Now almost every week we have some tournament or the other. last Saturday I played Addicts tournament. Tomorrow is our weekly ladies round of 18 holes.
Ameya is doing fine now after initial jet lag and home sickness. He goes to office with baba at 10 am with his lap top and packed lunch. They both return around 6 pm.
Every Sunday we go to the airport and watch planes landing & taking off for an hour or so. Ameya has taken fancy to eating Kheema with his roti & onions.
Natasha & Tanya visit us some times and 3 of them have fun. Now he is looking forward to travelling to Hyderabad in August.
We are leaving for Hyderabad on 24th August and will return to Pune on 1st September after attending Rohans wedding.
Sonu will join us directly in Hyderabad on 28th or so.
Last week Swami was on leave so I was busy cooking breakfast, lunch & dinner.
I have posted fish fry receipe , hope you all will like it.

Any available fish cut into thin slices. Salt, turmeric powder, red chilly powder, tamarind pulp, bread crumbs/rice flour & oil to fry
Procedure:
1: Marinate the fish slices with salt, turmeric powder, red chilly powder & tamarind pulp for few minutes.
2: Coat the fish slices with bread crumbs/rice flour on both sides.
3:Place the frying pan on the stove and add little oil in the pan.
4: When the oil is smoking, place slices of fish in the pan and fry both sides until fish turns golden brown
5: Place fried fish in a serving dish and decorate with onion slices, chopped cilantro & lemon slices.
Note: salmon is not a suitable fish as it tends to crumble while frying.

Glad to be back home.
Ameya & I left DC at 8:30 on saturday 30th June for London.
The person checking us in was impressed with Sonu and upgraded us to business class. Also the carrier was Boing 777, most fantastic plane. Business class had individual cubicles where the seats can be reclined fully. However Ameya hated business class and was grumbling throught saying how much he hated business class and he will never never ever will travel again in business class.
From London we were in World Traveller Plus class and Ameya refused to sit there. He went and plonked himself in 32 K in Economy class.
I had to request the person in 32K to please come & sit in business class. (He was a shippie from Goa and consumed 3/4 bottles of red wine).
I think we were very lucky that there were no delayes and we reached Bombay in time. Baba was waiting for us and we left immediately for Pune. at 3:30 in the morning I got a call on my cell. It was Ameya calling me from down stairs. I went down and he ate a hearty breakfast on 4 rotis , onion and bhaji. I think he will take another 2/3 days to overcome jet lag.
As soon as we reached Pune it started raining very heavily. It rained for 2 days nonstop.
Natasha & Tanya cme to see us next evening and Ameya was very happy to see them. Golf course is flooded, so I have not started golf as yet.
Rajashree is in Pune with her family from Dubai. Sabita is in Pune from Ottawa. So I am planning to call Vibha, Rajashree & Sabita with their children to spend an evening with us in 236, Sind Colony.

We are back in Pune
Ameya & I left DC at 8:30 AM on Saturday.
The BA person who was checking us in was impressed by Sonu and upgraded us to Business class from World Traveller Plus.
And our carrier was Boing 777 a magnificient air craft. The seats in business class are like small private cubicles, where the seat can be reclined fully and one can sleep properly. But there was a hitch. Ameya does not like any other class but Economy. With great difficulty I persuaded him to sit near the window and we finished the first lap upto London.
In London we got the news that it is raining cats & dogs in Bombay & Pune & flights are being diverted to Delhi or Ahmedabad. I was keeping my fingers crossed all the way and luckily for us we landed in Bombay without a problem and drove to Pune with Baba who was waiting for us in Bombay.
In pune Natasha & Tanya came to spend the evening with Ameya. They are having a blast in Pune. Coming Sunday is Tanya's birthday and we are invited for a party.
I am glad that I am back home after 6 weeks, however I can not yet start playing golf due to heavy rains.
