Cakes, Cookies and Wine
Make this festive season divine!
But amidst all the merriment, do we stop to think about our waistlines?

This is not to put a dampener in your festive cheer
Or me pretending to be a seer

But just something to make you stop and think
Before you embark on an uncontrolled binge


A huge slice of Mama's homemade rich plum cake
How many calories in that one intake?

300 to 400 I'd say would be the range
To wolf down more than one slice now are you game?





The pretty frosted cookies that we munch on with so much glee
In just one, 200 would be the minimum calories

And oh what about a decadent glass of red wine?
25 calories per ounce, and you thought drinking a whole bottle was calorie free and totally fine!



You can merrily do all of the above
If you action your plan for burning the extra energy does not collapse like a house of cards when shoved!

You'll say- Go away I'm only feasting for this one day
Who cares as tomorrow I vow not to be led astray!

It's little indulgences like these
When controlled and in proportion you can do as you please

So watch what you eat
Or you'll have to exercise like a freak
To burn all the extra fatty treats
So much for me ruining your feast!


Merry X-mas my calorie conscious friends!

New Wings to Hope

I just finished reading a book I had meant to read for ages-  'Wings of Fire'. The autobiography of Dr.   A.P.J. Abdul Kalam with Arun Tiwari. It was truly motivational. After reading this book I jotted down this small poem that I'd like to share with you. I've written this poem to depict what this book meant to me and gave me- it gave hope new wings so I've titled it  New Wings to Hope. The poem is mine. The image has been sourced from  here . A detailed book review is available on  my new blog dedicated to books and more titled 'The Book Worm's Life' .

A decade's time for a big celebration! Ten illustrious years, For your glorious career we all cheer! A decade of service, Your wealth of experience- priceless. Countless challenges triumphed, Your boundless energy has everyone pumped. Your inclusive leadership style, Makes everyone feel worthwhile. Empowering us to excel, And chart paths novel. An action oriented leader, Who is more than a manager. A mentor and motivator, Whom to emulate we aspire. Working with you has been truly inspiring and awesome, Best wishes for many more magnificent years to come!
