Description
Holiday evenings at home as a kid was often spent with home made snacks on the table. After a long day of playing outdoors in the hot sun to climbing trees, we cousins are given a good body wash, hair combed and a dress change is compulsory before getting to feast on the home made goodies. Fresh looking clean cousin’s sit together in the dining table. We grab our share before any one starts to serve. The noisy table out of a sudden gets to pin drop silence with our mouth’s full and indulging into the warm home made goodies. Once our bellies are lined to satisfaction then the noise gets back’s to it’s normal mad level. My grand mother used to serve us bread omelette toast which was a favorite to all us cousins. In remembrance to that I did the same with a chicken filled sandwich. The result was delicious but minus my cousins and being little was missed loads for sure. The scent of nostalgia always creep’s up into me every now and then but all I can do is take a beep breath, soothe my heart with the beautiful memories and feel blessed for being gifted with a lovely cherish able childhood.
