Snow Capped Mountains and Meeting Indian women

Today was an early morning. Linus left at 7-30 am. There wasn't any morning rush, since we had decided on toast and juice for the breakfast.

I peeled almonds for him, and got his toast ready in no time. I looked around, it still seemed dark to be going out, so I sneaked back in bed. Got up half an hour later, by a call from my mother in law.

I was not meeting Linus for lunch today, so it was a lazy afternoon. Was chatting with mom, and thanks to her I cooked some lunch for myself. Then, in the late afternoon I set out to wander. Walked till the Clarens Station. Found out how to buy ticket from the machine. Wandered further to find dry cleaners. Then, finally came to Clarens Center where I buy groceries and all.

All the while, wandering alone, looking at the mountains (I had walked uphill today because the station is not on lake side, always uphill), looking at the snow, realising how the lavish green spread was turning into frosty carpet. Breathing in the cold air, I walked slowly , feeling how tiny I was and how huge the mounts were. The mountains seem so near to me, like Rukmini says, thoda haath aagey karo toh lagega chhoo hee lengey..

Then, it was time to do some Migroing and Denning...hmm Migros and Denner are few of the chains here. I went to the Migros. There while looking for groceries I identified two Indian faces. I was quick to flash a smile. I did not get a very warm response but I was sure they were Indians. Next moment I was by their side, having exchanged names of husbands, who had come from IBM kolkata to Nestle, I volunteered, and I am Vidwata. So that later one of them could or rather eventually would call up her hubby and say, Sweetheart, I met this Indian Female, wifey ....
