3.15 am: Mass attack of the hunger pangs ;) In the kitchen (of the club+restaurant) cooking for my friends and myself, some veggie pasta in a creamy pesto sauce...some fresh basil leaves, pine nuts, extra virgin olive oil and parmesan cheese! Yummy!
6.25 am: Drove past the temple, bells ringing, said good morning to God, then good morning to milkman ;) 1.30 pm: beep BEEEEP!!! The reminder alarm on my phone like a bee in the earu00a0- "don't forget VO...it's mother's day"...today is a special day for the most special lady in my life and I've decided to make it super special for her!
3.00 pm: 'Operation mother's day' begins! Maa is off to her bhagavad discourse with all her friends, that gives me time to make all the arrangements and surprise her when she's back! First stop...FLORIST!!! Am picking out her favourite orchids and lilies myself...its all gotta be PERFECT...she deserves nothing less!
5.00 pm: House cleaned, looking spic and span! I've been commanding the house staff like a general at war. Flowers and candles everywhere...looks beautiful! My sister Meghna will be here soon to add her artistic touch...god knows I need HELP there! ;)
6.00 pm: While Meghna's cooking dinner, I'm burning a CD of maa's favourite music, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, the Beatles of course and Dean Martin. When I was little I loved watching maa and dad dancing to this music, I'd run up to them, stand on their feet, hug their legs and be a part of the dance...a favourite memory!
8.45 pm: Everything's ready just in time...in walks maa and the look of surprise and joy on her face is worth a
million times the effort we made today!
11.00 pm: I read somewhere once "i could conquer the whole world with just one hand...if my mother holds the other". A portrait of grace and dignity, an angel of goodness, wisdom, guidance and love, you are my immeasurable strength...love you maa!
