It was a typical noon.... but not so typical cos i was left to handle the household myself....
the elders of the house were not in town.... and it gave me a little chance for experimentation....
the vegtable vendor just pulled his cart to a stop outside the gates.... and being eager to do some shopping i inspected his wares.... i got all the regular veggies... and then something caught my attention...
it was a juicy looking tiny watermelon.... all it needed was the vendor to thrust it in front my face and say that it was good and very sweet.... immediately i got it..
indeed it was a very sweet one... i diced it up and juiced it and served a tall glass to husband dearest who had just returned from gym...
his eyes doubled in size seeing the concoction in my hand... a look of pleasant surprise... eager to impress i had added some lemon n pepper... one sip and his expression faded... and then he asked how much i paid for the watermelon....
this time too his eyes doubled in size... but it wasnt in surprise... and i woved never to buy another watermelon again....
note:... it was indeed very sweet and i enjoyed every bit of it... but it was bit too expensive... thought a bit wasteful... it was worth every paisa...
haha.. un aarvathai naan paaratugiren! :P
