Almost burnt

Spatial intelligence is an excuse for being too lazy to measure things. But it is the better way to cook.

Today's meal:

Rice and peas cooked with chilli powder and coconut milk. Salad with curds and tomatoes.

The water in the rice was a little too less, causing the bottom of the cooker to get slightly charred. But I could salvage almost all of my meal except for a few spoons of burnt rice. The problem with burnt food is that the smell permeates the entire dish, even the unburnt part and tastes horrible. I stopped the process just in time. This has to be my first burnt meal here.

Today as I was idly watching the snow and admiring the smooth uniformity of the snow deposit on the ground, I saw a family of three having a snow fight. Had to laugh at them and wish I could be outside doing the same. I rolled up some ice collected on my window sill and made a ball out of it and dropped it on the ground. It made a hole in the spot where it hit the snow covered ground. The hole stayed on for at least an hour after that. Yes, I checked periodically. Hee hee.
