Starbucks!

 Starbucks opened in our city last night!!  I'm not a huge coffee drinker... but I was excited about the opening!!  (I think I like Starbucks because of all the green! haha!... Aashini and Diya think the mermaid on the logo looks like me... haha! Maybe it's the weird wavy hair :)... not sure :) )

Anyway, we got there and the line was SUPER long!  The wait time was about 45 minutes!!!
 There were so many people there!!!  I tried to get a pic of all the people... (that's why this picture is at an annoying angle... I was trying to get it all in in between the columns :))  
 Here's Aashini doing a jumping picture!!
 The girls tried to do a jumping picture :) haha!
 haha!  They had a few spills along the way :)

 I never got them both jumping :)
 Stuff for sale....
 OK, one more because I think they are cute :) haha!
 People waiting in line :)
Some friends that made it inside! :)
 We decided not to wait in line... So we'll have to go back soon and check it out :)

Emily! Those Delhi Mugs went fast!!! They're all gone and haven't had any more for weeks now... I hope they get some in soon :) I really want one :) haha! :) And yeah... it's not just Starbucks here... it's Starbucks Tata alliance... Tata provides 85% of the coffee beans I think ... something like that... it's a Joint Venture... pretty interesting :) Good business move for Tata! Starbucks is PACKED most days we go!

Cooking!

Cooking is sooo much harder here. THis is how you "puree" vegetables when you don't have a blender or food processor (or power). Some people have those things, but most people don't. This is my friend Gita. She's mashing up some onions. It's a marble slab that's not polished and they use a big rounded rock and just roll/mash! It's cool!!

Protesting

There's some political stuff going on in our city (and now the country) right now. People are peacefully fighting against corruption. It's been very interesting to follow. Tonight there was some protesting in our neighborhood. Here are some more protesting pictures. There will probably be more protesting to come... we'll see what happens!

Funny Things - Random :)

Here's a few random funny things ;) One thing that drives a lot of people crazy is honking! There are things that drive me crazy (like people urinating on the sidewalks - yuck!) but thankfully honking is not one of them because we hear it pretty much 24/7. We saw this poster the other day (below) and thought it was funny... BUT not as funny as the Hindi poster. The Hindi poster pretty much said that 'Honking is bad for your health' - haha ! Horns are actually a pretty necessary part of driving here. You don't really look behind you when you drive (most people either don't use their side mirrors, don't have side mirrors, or just have them folded in). When you drive, you just drive forward and you honk at the person in front of you to let them know that you're there - simple right? Sure, it's a little noisy, but you never have to look behind you :) If you go to that company's website it says: "Have patience at the traffic signals, let the signal t...
