Five years feels like a very small number, especially given how fast the years have passed since you left us. The pain is still strong. The thing is, nothing and no one can replace you. The burdens I’ve had to carry single-handedly after you left have devastated me at times. I never understood how you...

Living in a desert is depressing, to say the least. Especially for nature lovers like me who love to see greenery all around. Everywhere we turn, there’s that melancholic brown. Not a pleasant sight for the eyes. In that vast expanse of brown, we had discovered a green solace for the soul. We visited the...

Off late, I’ve been cooking on my own with zero help from maids. Cooking has always been a joy, even when I was a young woman. It’s a pleasure to cook for my kids. I’m a huge fan of one pot dishes that are nutrition packed while being delicious. This is because in the morning,...

I can’t believe that it’s been a year already. I feel numb and nothing at all. I think when death places its hands on someone close, it affects us only if the person in question truly loved us or we loved them. In my case, it feels like neither was true. I didn’t feel a...

5.4.2024 11:22Comment on Gluten-free Pancakes by Gluten-free Pancakes – Shirley’s Scribbles | My Meals are on WheelsAll kids love pancakes, and I prefer making them at home because firstly, I know what I’m putting in, and secondly, it’s 100% gluten-free.

Let me not paint a false picture for you guys. We’re far from perfect. We’re just like any other ordinary couple. We fight far more than we get cheesy. But I think a relationship that has so many flaws and hurdles and yet survives is one that is worth talking about. To start with, I...

The festive season doesn’t always translate into joy and happiness for everyone. That’s because some of us have sad or tragic memories associated with this season. This December 31st marks 4 years without my daddy. Hence, my heart goes out to all the people who have painful memories attached to this season. In December 2019,...

I get so fed up and frustrated when people easily say they couldn’t get back because they were ‘busy’. If I were to tell you the number of things I’m juggling at the moment, you’d be astonished! Yet I’ve never given anyone this excuse ‘I’m busy.’ It may take a while for me to respond,...

The present war taking place between Israel and Palestine has put me through waves of varied emotions. Initially, I was infuriated because all my social media feeds were filled with posts, especially on Instagram, which portrayed the sad state of affairs of the Palestinian people. Yes, of course their state is absolutely pathetic, till date....

I’m sorry. I understand that certain things in life are very painful. When I was going through these things I was always snubbed by everyone around. Only God brought the change. I’m sure your time will come soon too. Never keep yourself emotionally bonded. Release them and free yourself. I pray God helps you.

Hello there, yes it is very challenging to homeschool. It can wear one out. But it's nice to have the kids at home and they learn good habits. The best part is the flexibility. We are not following someone else's timing.
