Song for Anna
There's a funny thing we do over here,
not sure if you've seen it or know it clear ;
It's something that is our very own,
a special way in which our feelings are shown.
When we are happy, or sad, or mourning a loss
we mix in some anger and give it a good toss;
some stones, some fire, some shouting too;
we add these in to say "I cry for you".
You must not mistake it for something it's not,
this is how we mourn ; violence is all we've got.
So, you see while Death takes Dr.Raj away,
Bangalore burns to keep the tears at bay.
We lost a great man yesterday, and it is entirely shameful that a City that revered his Life is mourning his loss through so much senseless violence. How dare we put our impatience and intolerance first? How dare we think we, and our idea of how things should be done, are more important than paying our respects? How dare we dishonour his memory in such a manner? For Annavaru to rest, Bangalore must rest too.

Yeah...the violence was pathetic considering that we should have been mourning for something that came natural not man made...
Have you ever tried Momos ???
If you have, then you love them and if you’re wondering what they are it’s time to let your taste buds explore the flavour of Tibetan cuisine. Here’s where you can get a taste in Bangalore. They serve as both a snack and as a meal...
Chicken momos with the spicy sauce on the side, tastes even better!
Any one and Every one who likes momos must eat the ones I make and see..
I do cattering for birthday parties, aniversary and all other small occasions..
To order and buy momos contact me at 080-41634153
