Hello! It feels so good to be home!
My flight was ok – nothing too exciting. I read and slept. Vishnu picked me up at the airport. 
Even though we saw each other at the end of March, it felt like a year since I had last seen him. That’s what a long distance relationship will do to you. LOL!
I woke up this morning and made something I like to call a pancake biscuit (a super thick pancake). It doesn’t look like much, but it tasted quite yummy. I “frosted” it with a melted peanut butter and honey mixture.
After eating, I drove into the city to see my friend Ruchi. Ruch got married and moved to India back in November. She started a blog to share her experiences as an American living in India – American Sugar Indian Chai. Even though I’ve traveled to India multiple times, I love reading about her new life there. This is her first visit home, and since I’m in town, I wanted to make sure we had a chance to hang out and catch up!
My parents and I also made a trip to the outlets near our house. I didn’t really find much – it’s always so hit or miss for me. My mom, on the other hand, found her dream purse at the Coach outlet.
HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY, MOMMA!!!!!
Oh, and guess what. I found my next book – The Alchemist. I’m so excited! I hear it’s right up my alley.
Well, I’m off to watch a movie with the rents! Goodnight, y’all!!
What are your plans this Mother’s Day weekend?
Have you read The Alchemist??

May 8, 2011 at 2:30 pmOoo GREAT Coach purse — I like!
I’ve read The Alchemist and enjoyed it quite a bit. I really wanted to “savor” it so I would only read about 10 pages at a time.

May 8, 2011 at 5:29 pmMy non-important goal this year is to buy myself a Coach purse! I need to stop by the outlets to do that! Glad you’re having a great weekend in Atlanta – and I can’t wait to check out your friend’s blog!

May 9, 2011 at 9:40 amIt sounds like you had a fun weekend! Another reason we’re so the same – I eat PB on my pancakes too! Growing up, my friends always thought that was so weird!
Leslie says
May 9, 2011 at 1:27 pmMy friend told me that everyone she knows who reads The Alchemist winds up getting a divorce! Steer clear if you’re hitched! 🙂
