I used to journal all through my schooling years. It helped me process my thoughts especially in high school when I felt directionless and needed to hear my inner self. Simple problems were a huge deal, I fought with my mother constantly. Though I was a good student, school felt pointless to me at that time. Journaling was my way to get through those so called hard times. It made my thoughts and inner voices seem legitimate once it was down on paper. Letter format was my favorite way to write, letter writing in a voice as if someone may read my words, this process gave me joy. Then when I was half way through college I stopped for no apparent reason. I recently found my last journal while cleaning my garage, I honestly don’t know how it got there, maybe on one of my trips to India when I bring a little something from my past, it somehow kept me connected to my childhood home and my past. I keep wanting to throw it away because it makes me feel strange to read when I flip through to read old stuff. If only I could tell my teen self it was going to be okay, those lessons from my so called hard times were going to make life easier, those arguments with mum were so stupid, she always had my best interest and was right after all. She’s my best friend today. Which is why those letters linger somewhere between a keepsakebox in the attic or garage and not in the trash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let me introduce you to one of the best meals I\u2019ve had this month!<\/strong> Jackfruit is no stranger to me. My mom a lifelong vegetarian cooked with fresh raw jackfruit all the time and her jackfruit kofta curry was my favorite, speaking of which I should share the recipe.<\/em> These jackfruit carnita bowls are made from scratch with simple, wholesome ingredients. While the components initially take some time to prepare, they make great leftovers to enjoy all week long. These bowls pack well for lunch too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
