Nice quotation

The line separating good and evil passes not between states nor between classes but through the middle of every human heart. - Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

I am presently reading A Better India : A Better World by Mr. N R Narayana Murthy. I like the above quotation by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn so much that I can't resist myself from sharing it.

Which is the nice quotation that you come across while reading the present book? :)

Fenugreek sprouts

Earlier I have eaten so many recipes of fenugreek like potato fenugreek veg, fenugreek parantha, carrot fenugreek veg whereas fenugreek sprouts was a dish in the breakfast of a five star hotel in Agra (where I was staying) along with whole bengal gram sprouts, fresh fruits, puri and aloo veg, parantha, bread - butter n jam, uppama, vada with coconut chutney, salad, sausages, boiled egg, beverages and the rest I forgot. I tasted fenugreek sprouts for the first time and liked it as the bitterness of fenugreek is felt quite low because of the delicious sprouted part. What a healthy start of a day!

Have you ever eaten fenugreek sprouts?

Pigeons and only pigeons!

Near Red Fort, Agra in the morning fog, pigeons are feeding on grains! Surprisingly we don't see other birds like house sparrows, parrots, gursals, crows etc. these days especially in the cities.

While clicking this pic I was thinking "Pigeons are able to survive in the cities but why not other birds?"

Spiral cutting

During my evening walk in a park I saw this shrub with spiral cutting. For me it was unique so I clicked it.

Have you even seen such fine cutting?

Cheapest fruit

In Gurgaon, these days guava is the cheapest fruit Rs.20/- only per Kg.

Which is the cheapest fruit in your locality?

Happy 2013!

Teenage of twenty first century begins! Happy 2013! :)

Balloon

"Madam, Please buy me a balloon. The same beggar kid of the previous post asked me.

Should I repeatedly give him money or asked him to stop begging?
