My Grandmother’s Birthday Cake!

Renee Khanorkar9 Comments

Today was my grandmother’s birthday, so we made two cakes!

This was the first one, it was very chocolatey. It had chocolate cake, chocolate ganache and chocolates as toppings!

Mother in Marathi has been written on the cake.

This is a plum cake with melted white chocolate and cherries as toppings. It was much healthier than the chocolate one.

So do please comment which cake you would prefer! Also, I preferred the chocolatey cake XD.

George’s Marvellous Medicine – Roald Dahl (Book Review)

Renee KhanorkarLeave a comment

George’s Marvellous Medicine is a really fascinating book. It’s about how George tries to teach his wicked grandmother a lesson. He combines so many things, from all around the house. It’s fascinating and disgusting at the same time. It has a happy ending, not that Roald Dahl’s books have negative endings. In conclusion, it’s a good fascinating book, which still interests me.

It is available on Amazon (Kindle Edition) for Rs. 175.75.

My Nani’s House (Poem)

Renee KhanorkarLeave a comment

In Diwali the house is at its best,
It’s like there is it’s own little fest.
Close by, my nani has many friends,
They don’t have any broken bonds to mend.
There are many AC’s for us,
So we don’t make a big fuss.
My nani makes many sweets,
Just in time for all our meets.
It was just my nana’s birthday today,
It was wonderful you could say.
Even though there is no backyard,
There are plenty of flowers which my nani will guard.
Sure, there are many buildings in the view here,
But, the sunset visible to us, is dear.
Luxurious in the house are the rooms,
Where pretty decor looms.
In the living room, there is a big painting,
Because of it, the artist in me will ring.
There are many photos, of childhood me,
You won’t understand the beauty of the house until you come and see.

My Dadi’s House (Poem)

Renee KhanorkarLeave a comment

My Dadi’s house is so big,
It’s like there are many treasures to dig.
Though here mosquitoes have made their home,
There’s plenty of space to run and roam.
We went up to the highest point of the house one day,
And a beautiful sight we saw, we could say.
In the porch, there is a swing,
In the morning, we can hear the birds sing.
In total, there are upto 11 rooms,
That also excluding the bathrooms.
To believe, it’s hard that’s true,
There are also many delicacies which my dadi will brew.
Cats will also roam into our house,
Even though, there is not a single mouse.
First, there used to live a family of 5,
A mom, a dad, a brother and two sisters were in this hive.
I come here for the holidays,
And I love this place in many ways.
