1. When you start using tissues from house cleaning to wiping ‘you know what’. 2. When you stick ‘stick notes’ all over your desk wall, your refrigerator for TO DO (grocery list to schedule of the day) things. 3.

It is officially spring in the windy city. After 6 months of chilly and windy weather, its a respite to see the sun and wind gods smiling on us mortals. I was so glad to see people without their n layers of winter gear. Roaming casually in shorts and floaters. Families with kids streaming towards…

Wonder what are the benefits of living in a global environment (I mean actually surrounded by all kinds of foreigners..duh!!)?? For me it is the exposure to various cuisines. Specially if you know what you are eating, in short if you are a foodie!One look at me and the thought of ‘me being a foodie’…
