Disclaimer: This is not a food blog....

...yet i can't resist putting up pictures of some of my documented baking feats!!!

The classic upside down pineapple cake...i din't have pitted cherries to add to centers of the pineapple slices.



The Marble cake....i think this one is the simplest in the book other than the sponge cake, ofcourse.
ps: I baked this one for Ash's Birthday.



The Prettiest one by far....and the trickiest!! The double layer Strawberry cake.

Verse from the past

Rummaging through an old purse, I came across a forgotten piece of paper with a poem I had written two years back in a languid mood.

After-bath

Aroma,
Heady,
Sweet smell of lemon grass;

Fresh,
Fragrant,
Water dripping off my hair;

Mild,
Cottony,
dusky light filters through lace;

Gentle,
Small,
Anklets chime as I tap my feet;

Rhythmic,
Indigo,
I stretch over printed sheets;

I breathe the moment of stillness,
My senses savor faraway whispers,
I sleep.
