winter beauties

Blossoms on a wintery day...

Bottle it Up!

Old bottles lying around the house are a nuisance and if you're a hoarder like me you won't be throwing them away in a hurry... So lookee what I found when I Googled "DIY empty bottles"... Pretty neat huh?! Take a look at the entire tutorial here... 

Faith is all you need

Thousands of candles have been lit over the years at this church that is undergoing renovation. People simply troop in, light a candle, spend a minute or two in prayer and leave...

Forgot to carry your shopping bag and had to fork out extra to carry your groceries home. I just hate it, knowing that the cost of the plastic bags is built into the product cost. But, who's going to argue right? Plastic bags, zippered bags, tiny little plastic pouches that we just throw away...We either just get rid of them or store them for "future" use which rarely happens.. Check out this link... New uses for old plastic bags..Got some gems there...

Love, love love this..Check out the entire gallery here..Simple, symmetrical, clean lines and so uncluttered.. I just love the simplicity of a bathroom like this... Would cost an arm and a leg to fit something like this in a city like Mumbai though :) and not to mention a real task to keep clean... 

A father plays a very important role in a child's life....or so we are told... But I think there needs to be an asterisk at the end of that sentence... And the fine print should read "an active father"...
Women go through life putting up with an uninvolved husband and father thinking that's best for her children because they need a father. But how true is that? Will they grow up to be secure, well-adjusted people just because their parents lived under the same roof their whole life?  The occasional outing, the rare one hour of baby-sitting, the paying of bills.. Is that a father? Is the role of the father truly defined?
This is isn't a feminist rant.. It's a thought that has been nagging me for almost 3 years now... Should a woman stay with her husband just because he is the biological father of her children? Is a biological father the best father a child can have?

Mirror mirror on the wall...

Saw this post today about celebrities with not so attractive spouses... Now how subjective is beauty? Once you see the gallery you scroll through and have thoughts of "yeah, mismatched couple for sure"... will you feel a pang of guilt for being sooo judgemental or will you say "yeah well... whatever", and move on to the next gallery?
Either way it's pretty rude and the author very cleverly leaves out any captions of any kind leaving room for enough ambiguity depending on what you find attractive...
Take a look..
