Day 31: My Workspace

It's been 7 months since I got married. After 3 years of work, I wanted to take a break and be a housewife for a while. Because of this wonderful opportunity, my home became my work space. And since I keep visiting my in-laws, I have two work space! Today I am at my in-laws' house, and this below is my favourite spot since I get to sit by the window :)

This is for the July Photo A Day Challenge. Today's prompt is Workspace. With this, the challenge ends today!

Day 30: Friendship Is...

Among a lot of things, friendship is also about friends coming home just to wish your mom on her birthday and bringing a huge bouquet of flowers for her :)

--------------------

This is for the July Photo A Day Challenge. Today's prompt is Friendship.

Day 29: My Perspective...

I don't know if this qualifies for the theme of the July Photo A Day Challenge, day 29 - perspective - but this is the best shot I have! This is a small rivulet near V's grandfather's house in Kerala. Whenever I look at this picture, it instantly feels as if I have my feet dipped in this cold refreshing water...

Day 28: Another New Experience!

If you ask me what's new in my life, it would generally be updates and purchases about new clothes or stuff for the house. But after a long time, lately, my purchases have been books! This is the latest one which arrived :) Loving it so far! Another new experience comes, yet again from a book.

This is for the July Photo A Day Challenge. The theme for today is This Is New!

Day 27: It's Black, It's White!

Instead of taking a picture and turning it into black and white, I wanted to take a picture of something that is black and white. So today's prompt for the July Photo A Day Challenge is Black + White, and this is my picture for the prompt.

Day 26: Always In Bloom!

These artificial flowers have been at my in-laws' house since almost 10 years now. When I came to this house 6 months back, they caught my attention. They are as pretty as fresh flowers and it makes me happy when I look at them. An everyday beauty that deserves to be appreciated :)

--------------------

This is for the July Photo A Day Challenge. Today's theme is The Everyday.

Day 25: The Ground We Live On...

Since childhood, I've lived in houses that have mosaic tiles. I know it's very common to have mosaic flooring, but it is one of those things which we probably ignore in our every day routine. Today's theme - Ground - for July Photo A Day Challenge gave me the chance to pay attention to it, again :) 

Day 24: D Is For Destiny!

Today's prompt for the July Photo A Day Challenge - D is for...
And the idea for the photo was thought of by my better half :) D is for Destiny, he said. Yes, we were destined to be together.

Day 23: Sketched Out A Bookmark!

I feel proud of the small achievements and can brag about it for long :P Thanks to the July Photo A Day Challenge, I got back to sketching/drawing after a long time. Today's prompt is I Drew This!

I love this picture I found on the internet a few months back:

And this was what I tried to sketch! I think this is my best shot :D

I got more enthusiastic :D Cut this out and stuck it on another beautiful piece of paper to make it a bookmark!

A close up :D

Yay!!

You like it? Would love to know!

Day 22: Grey It Is!

I cannot associate grey with being depressed. It's a smart colour when it comes to garments. And it is even more lovelier when it comes to monsoon :) Since I've already posted quite a few pictures of monsoon clouds, I took time to pick this one out. This was taken at Calicut Beach in Kerala... I personally think the rocks make this picture very beautiful...

--------------------

This is for July Photo A Day Challenge. The theme for Day 22 was Grey.

Day 20: Sweet Tooth - A Big One At That!

When it comes to favourite food, it HAS to be cake for me! I love cakes (and now, baking them too :D)! I love desserts in general, but cakes especially; cannot resist one if put in front of me! I love trying different flavours in cakes. This one was baked by me :)

--------------------

This is for the July Photo A Day Challenge. Today's theme is Fave Food.

Day 20: Hot And Refreshing!

We finally visited a coffee shop we were waiting to try out. And I tasted something interesting on the menu - maggi noodles in Thai red curry! They were very hot :D I liked it, though V did not :P (I also like the colours of the bowl and the plate; the colours of flame, no?)

--------------------

This is for the July Photo A Day Challenge. Today's prompt is Hot.

Day 19: Standing Tall

Beautiful, sacred and tall. St. Philomena's Church in Mysore, Karnataka.

This is for the July Photo A Day Challenge. Today's prompt is Building.

Day 18: The Number Game... On My Clock!

I love different types of wall clocks. Nowadays there are such interesting and fun designs! This one was something me and V had to pick up when we saw it. And I also picked it up since it is perfect for V :) Every morning it's like waking up a child so that he doesn't get late for school :D And every time, this clock reminds me may be this is what is going on in his head!

--------------------

This is for the July Photo A Day Challenge. The theme for today is Number.

Day 17: What Inspires Me?

The theme for today's July Photo A Day Challenge is Inspirational. There are so many things I can list. But then, I was stuck on travelling. I find it inspirational and healing, in a way. I feel better if I travel often, though my often is not very often! I feel guilty of not travelling when I look at pictures. There's so much to see! But at the end, travelling inspires me to do lots of things - to step out and see the world, to be humbled by the people I meet, to try and know other cultures, to dream and to have plans of completing those dreams... And so much more!

This was shot in Kerala, on my trip there in June. It's a picture I love since it is very typical of Kerala too :)

Day 16: Shadow Play

Day 15: Sunset From My Window...

With the monsoon being so generous and romantic, the view outside is always beautiful :) This is sunset from my window...

Day 14: New For Me!

When it comes to food, it's exciting to see and, of course, taste new things. My father-in-law loves to eat beans. He brought these purple coloured ones which I haven't seen before (!) and we cooked them today. They are essentially the same as green ones, it's just the colour that's different.

Also, these cute heart shaped chocolates were also brought by my father-in-law for all of us :) He knows how much we all love chocolate!

This is for the July Photo A Day Challenge. Today's topic is Edible.

What am I doing at 4 o' clock? Waiting for rains and loving the weather! My terrace gives a beautiful view of Nagpur city...

This is for the July Photo A Day Challenge. The theme for today is 4 o' clock.

Day 12: Bad Habit? May be...

I cannot put desserts and beverages under bad habit. But then, I don't have a bad habit either. So let's go with what everybody thinks is one - tea! I love tea, especially during monsoon and winter.

--------------------

This is for the July Photo A Day Challenge. The theme for Day 12 was Bad Habit.
