Break the routine..though I have not been a fuss pot in eating my Mom had always taken special interest to cater to my taste buds..how marvellous and meticuluous she had been in planning her regular tasks. These tasks which are regular and need to be performed day in and day out of course requires lot of love, patience and fresh start everyday..I used to wait for the ring to go and wait to see my Maths teacher's neatly decked hair bun clad with flowers vanish, so that I could open the tiffen box and find out what my mom had packed for me for the day.. She managed to make each day magical with different colors filled in my box. She used to make flags of different countries each day..Greens, carrot, curd rice neatly arranged in different rows..She used to have a separate box for chips, appalam etc..With all this effort and so much imaginary work being done by my Mom I used to bring back the box half-unfinished.. But the next day my tireless mom would again have another surprise in my box..How wonderful she was..And alas today I am a mom and I am unable to imagine, decor or create new recepies to fill my daughter's tiffen box.. Everyday morning 6.00 I enter the Kitchen and stay gazed and wondering and thinking what am I supposed to do today.. How will I make my daughter finish up her box..God will you send me some fairies with magical recipies to flatter my daughter. She doesnt want repetitions, she doesnt want this..that..God are all GenNext kids so fussy...And today's mom's I must tell you are left starstuck hearing about the different munchiees the kids want us to make..strange names..dont know from where they get them..I am out on a receipe hunt to atleast make her open the box and have a few bites..leave alone finishing half..Must break the routine now that Iam in the hot seat...
