Rains and more rains....after a very very veeeerrrryyyy long wait the rains finally arrived....and did they come down....started in the night and continued the whole morning...darkening the skies and casting a gloom over the day and our plans...
Had some errands to run....and some other things to take care of - so had decided to set out early in the morning - so as to avoid the traffic and complete all the jobs as planned...well that was totally taken care of by the rains...not that we were complaining as it was long overdue...causing the temperatures to shoot up...and a real possibility of water shortage due to the scanty rainfall we have had till date...but as I said this put a scrimp in our plans for the day .....so decided instead to spend the time enjoying the rains while staying indoors warm & toasty & dry...
Would have loved to have bhajiyas & hot tea with a good book and a fireplace ?!?.....well in lieu of that decided to go in for hot steaming soup and garlic bread...good book very much present ...fireplace very much absent :-)...anyways guess you have to make do with what you have...which reminds me of this saying... which is rather apt for the current weather...
"If you think sunshine brings you happiness, then you haven't danced in the rain"
So with that thought (though not dancing ) let us proceed to make the soup...and enjoy the rainy day....
