She

  She poem written by Deial  pic credit: internet She lives Spending yet another day In toil Living it for someone Neglecting away herself She lives yet another day She lives Striking off yet another day In sorrow With sorrow Ignorant that her fortunate days will soon arrive She lives yet another day She lives Yet another day In an Immortal cracked shelter, Her soul With desperate eyes seeking eternal joy Thus she lives yet another day. Thus she lives every day. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This poem was originally written in 2018 in the close of the monsoon season.  

The Silent Waters...

The Silent Waters... Poem written by Deial Johnson picture credit: Sujith;   Location: Kollam, Kerala   Beside the silent waters sit I And spend my time Peacefully. Here, the vegetation is rich And the soil damp from the water Flowing beside it.   The water is new every day. It flows from a source that it never sees again To another unfamiliar locale Through the same track through which it flows day after day. It flows slowly, every minute. To the beautiful rhythm of my soul.   Beside these silent waters sit I Where my thoughts and the waters flow In one accord; Rich, damp thoughts that just cannot be held within. It should flow too From within To explore new limits – Like the silent waters flowing every day.

Whipping cream at home!

Here's a recipe I watched online to make whipping cream at home. I found this recipe so simply s uper easy to make and wanted to share it with you too.  Let's get to it: ~In a small bowl take: Egg whites from 2 eggs Sugar – ½ cup (don’t have to powder it) Pinch of salt ½ teaspoon lemon juice ~Mix it slightly just until all the ingredients are incorporated. ~Boil some water in another vessel and dip the bowl into it so that it is being double-boiled. Do this step just until the sugar melts. ~After the sugar melts, transfer the mixture into a larger bowl, and with the help of a hand mixer, beat it for about 2-4 minutes. ~Add ½ teaspoon of vanilla essence when you’re halfway beating the cream after which you can continue beating it till the cream is stiff- just like the whipping cream. Viola! Your cream is ready for the cake. It is stiff and can be used as regular whipping cream. You can add any colour of your choice and decorate your cake or cupcakes with
