Yeoow ! Get well food does not taste good

Hi,

It is Flu season at our home.  First my nose was blocked, then Amma sounded funny for over three weeks and last weekend it was Appa's turn.  Amma prepared her trademark ನಿಂಬೆ ಹುಳಿ ಸಾರು (Lemon Rasam) to help Appa regain his apetite.  Today, both Amma and Appa ate their salads and gave me rice and this Rasam along with okra.  Boy! that get well soon food tasted really sour and just like Caillou I exclaimed "Yeoow! it is too sour".  At the end of the bowl of my rice, the natural expression "I am glad my dinner is over" made both Amma and Appa have a nice long laugh....

Counting Numbers

Last week we were on our way to Leela Dodda's place and Appa stopped at outlet mall to pick up some things.  There were lots of shops and I started counting them.  Imagine the terrified look on Appa's face when I started saying "Uno, Dos, Tres, Cuatro, Cinco ..."  Yes, I can count till Diez (Ten) in Spanish.

Why - most feared weapon

Hi Folks,

I have found the new magic weapon to silence my parents.  You should see the fear in their face when I ask the question "Why" for any question.  Probably they are already afraid of the next "Why" in the series. One good thing is I get an answer for my "Why" question but it comes out very slowly and in a calculated fashion

More on this later,
See you,
