  • J junks JEWELLERY

    If there is anything the UAE is known for, other than petroleum, it is GOLD. Yes, their 24 carat gold is a craze in the country I come from. After all, 22 carat purity is the closest we get back home. And God alone knows how pure that is! No wonder then, Dubai Gold, as…

  • I indulges IKEA

    My husband can trust me in a diamond store, but he just won’t let me go unaccompanied to a home decor store. And if the store is a certain DIY kinda place, it is a strict no-no. Anyone who knows me, knows my love for IKEA. And since the hubby does know me, a fair…

  • H has HOLIDAY

    This is my second year with AtoZ and it seems to be pretty hectic. No, not just coz I am blog hopping, well, yes, that too. But because I am on a holiday trying to write in between my shopping and sight seeing sprees! Last year too, I was holidaying in Singapore. This year it…

  • G glorifies GRAND

    I have just visited the GRAND MOSQUE in Abu Dhabi today. And no matter what I pen, I will not be able to do justice to its beauty, architecture and grandeur. I know I am still in awe of it. The final resting place of Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan ( the same premises), the…

  • F favours FREE

    In the land of shopping when you add a FREEBIE, you, my friend, are working on the best tool available to brands. FREE does something to us women. And when it is shoes………………It is ORGASMIC! Believe me, a scientific calculator couldn’t beat us on the various permutations and combinations we come up with to make…

  • E elaborates EXPERIENCE

    There is always a first time they say; and you never forget the first. So, it came to pass. Last evening, I made my way to the much talked about Terminal 2 at the Mumbai International Airport. The T2 IS an absolute delight. The architecture, and the artistic rendering do bring a smile on your…

  • D defined ‘DITTO’

    Fans of the movie ‘Ghost’ were we, my bestie and me. Unchained Melody remains an eternal favourite, till date. Patrick Swayze and Demi Moore, they were prefect together. And Whoppi Goldberg was simply amazing! I have forgotten the number of times we’ve seen this movie. And every time, it tugged at the heart, just a…

  • C chuckles, CUTLET?

    So, all those who know me, know how I was arm twisted into becoming a cat person. And then how that brat took over my house, my family and my life! You’d also believe that I quickly learned my lesson and recovered from the feline attack. Of course, I did. That was two years ago.…

  • B bedazzles BOLLYWOOD

    Ah, yes, we are a nation of song and dance. Bollywood is staple diet in any respectable North Indian family. The rest of the country has their regional films to take a cue from. What can I say? We are a melodramatic lot! Everything for us is larger than life. Drama is life-giving. Emotions are…

  • Social Banking in a JIFI

    Let’s face it, banking is not one of my favourite chores. Ok, I hate cooking more. Banking comes a close second. Why, you ask. Well for starters, too many counters. Way too many executives wanting to sell something to meet their monthly targets. You stand in a queue for a simple transaction. Yes, of course…
