Deserts!!

The title says it all....Deserts!! oh wow!! They are just yummy!! Truly a fitting way to complete a good meal. Something that can by itself,take a meal from being 'good' to 'great'!!

I had just the kind of experience tonight. The meal was a decent one...the paneer tikka masala was okay,nothing to brag about. The chicken banjara was good enough. The dahi wada was really good,so was the Russian salad. The lack of time prevented me from trying out the Mutton Curry and the Roasted chicken and I decided to directly skip to the deserts. And why wouldnt I? Esp. since I'd seen before hand that there was gonna be Chocolate Souffle!! And it was AWESOME!! Unlike any other I've ever eaten. It was just too good. I ended up having 5 helpings of the Souffle!! Ultimately the catering staff ran out of Souffle so they had to get a fresh stock just to cater to my unending requests! Hehe...twas a nice experience that one,tonight. Am looking forward to having some more of that stuff soon.

End of an era?

Well,Stephen Fleming's decision to resign from the ODI captaincy following New Zealand's 81 run loss against Sri Lanka in the 1st Semi-Final of the 2007 Cricket World Cup signals the end of an era. An era in which one Fleming held the reigns of captaincy for over a decade,being the father figure of a team which never quite boasted of world-class performers or superstars that other cricketing nations could boast of. But the man in charge,with his acute thinking and aggresive cricketing mind,did reform his team from a bunch of 11 players to a team which started winning matches purely on the basis of teamwork and collective efforts rather than individual brilliancy.

In his decade long captaincy record,Fleming lead New Zealand in 217 ODI's,winning 98 and losing 106. The decision to resign from the ODI captaincy was made so that he could concentrate on his batting and improve his individual performances.

However,if given the opportunity,Fleming says he would still like to be at the helm of affairs in Test cricket,while continuining to play as a pure batsman in ODIs.

Summer Heat

The summer is on in full swing!! And quite literally in full swing it is!! As if my f****d up life isnt bad enough,the sweltering heat just adds fuel to the fire. Thankfully my good old trusted friend,my Pepsi remains as loyal as ever. Through thick and thin. Boy,I cant imagine how many bottles of Pepsi I must have gulped in this summer...well,its not over yet...there's more to come...

Beginner's Luck

Well,I hope it works out this time atleast....it must be the 4th or 5th time that Im trying it out. Its gotta pay off some time atleast. And if you cant get things done the straight way,try the crooked way. Get it by hook or by crook.
