When you pop some fresh fennel and munch on them, you will be hit! Just close your eyes and it hits you with the freshness and the exhilaration of feeling akin to floating.
We managed to rest our feet for a bit but still jumped into reach room to chat with others. Pradnya who was still trying to arrive as a decision on the BM Chef Contest confessed Vaishali's son had given her his verdict. Kamalika and she were breaking their heads to see if they can include everybody. All of us were asked to contribute to the gift hamper that was prepared for the BM Chef. So since everybody's dish came out so well, they were so confused. I didn't want to do anything with the head breaking, my legs were breaking as such!
Vaishali was going on hurrying us up and saying the place might deny our table if we were ended up late. So all of us rushed out. I was sitting with Vaishali and she was telling me all about her daughter's marriage and so many tales from her family, I realized we were going out of the city. When there was a talk about Vaishali's garden, I mentioned to her that I would drop in her place to check out her patch. She promised me she would take us on Sunday.
