If I could write a note to my younger self. This is what it would be.

Dear Anpu,
Don't say yes when you want to say no. Don't follow the crowd. Elders might scold you but it will make perfect sense as to why they said NO to you for certain things as years pass by . You don't need to look like a celebrity to be beautiful. Just be yourself and the world will love you. Write more. Read more. Start a blog. Don't let your talents rot. Improve them. Do not give up so fast. You will not find happiness in possessions. Happiness lies in the simple things of life which you are taking for granted. Make memories. Wear those fluorescent colours. Even when you are stressed don't forget to smile. Remember that 'The rain will always be followed by the rainbow'. When you are worried ask yourself this question "Will this matter ten years from now?". Always Be humble. Don't be naive. Don't trust anyone ( not even your friends) but only trust god. Pray often not only when you want to get something done.
With love
Your
Older self

Name: Bittu Jacob Owner of Baked for you by Bittu 1. Why did you pursue baking as career? During my school days I enjoyed baking with my ‘Amma’. After getting married I used to bake occasionally at home and when we had guests at home. On my son’s 5 th birthday, I decided to make a fire truck shaped fondant cake. It was my very first attempt baking a fondant cake from scratch. When my family saw the cake they were quite impressed. To be honest the cake tasted lovely but it was not like those very neat fondant cakes . My family encouraged me to level up my skill by attending cake décor classes. So I attended a class and learned the basics of cake decoration. Even at that point of time I never thought of taking this up professionally. That same year (2016) in the month of December my Appa asked me to bake 10 cakes to gift his friends. I was nervous about this but my Appa had full confidence in me. He convinced...

The dot, turban and the hijab.

It was another day at middle school. I still had not made any friends. Well , the truth is I really tried but no one wanted to be my friend. It was lunch time and I was looking for a place to sit in the cafeteria. This is one thing I dread the most. Everyone had a group of friends of their own. The popular group sat in the corner. They were the cheerleaders, basketball players, kids with good looks (most of them wore makeup so cannot really tell if they were really good looking) and then there were the rich kids who only wore only branded clothes , shoes. I certainly did not belong there because I didn’t have the skinny body type which those cheerleaders had. Forget sports. I cannot even do ten push-ups straight. I wore clothes which I got on sale from JCpenny and not Ar...
