Apple TV is FREE for the weekend (4th & 5th Jan) and they have AMAZING TV. Here are some shows to binge.

1. BAD SISTERS is murdery and a favorite. You'll love it if you have sisters who stick up for one another. I hear S2 isn't as good but S1 is simply awesome. Funny+glorious Image 2. early warning :This list includes both shows I love and my watchlist. Next up is THE ESSEX SERPENT, a book that i LOVE (read it!), so if you are busy to read, check out this excellent adaptation. A vicar, a widow and an investigation about a sea serpent Image

Anubandham (Malayalam, 1985) directed by IV Sasi is a film that leaves you thinking. A school master (Mammooty) comes to a village. He meets his old student Sunanda (Seema), now a struggling widow and single mom in poverty. (1/n) Image I loved Vijayam (Sobhana), Sunanda's city-bred neighbor, who is unhappy in the rural setup. She is bored; can't fit in and impatiently persuades her husband Bhaskaran (Mohanlal) to get a transfer to the city. She is prejudiced inspite of being educated (2/n)

A THREAD of some incredible fiction from Westland. Their books have given me much joy. Read READ more books
1. HELLFIRE by @LeesaGazi transl by @nadiya_shabnum
Toxic mother trapped women. A 40yo woman goes outside her house w/out company for the first time. Shocking page turner 2. @amritamahale 's MILK TEETH made me miss Matunga food, Irani cafes, old Mumbai, building societies, housing problems. A perfect Bombay book.

I would highly HIGHLY recommend making Cilbar aka Turkish poached eggs. Who knew eggs in yoghurt would taste SO GOOD. One of those dishes where once you eat you just can’t stop. Won’t stop, can’t stop I have to share these tips because this is such an amazing item and I wish the whole world would make it. So here’s what I did..Might be more useful for Indians ..THREAD (2/n)
