April Rain




Soothing whispers of a gentle breeze,

Swept amid my curly hair.

As I sat  on the porch with a cup of chai,

Bloated ashen clouds dashed into each other,

They waited to explode and turned darker by the second.

Trees swaying a welcome dance,

While the earth blew a mighty wind to greet the approaching rain,

I look up as I felt a spray of tiny beads cascading down my arm.

And there those first droplets kiss the planet.

It left an earthy aroma all around.

Then with a Rumble and a roar came those majestic drops,

Shattering the ground with force,

It created a beautiful serenade on the roof

And steady drumming on the windows.

It enriched the thirsty soil,

Making every dusty leaf glossy,

Cheerful, bright, and bold is the Rain

It calms your nerves and makes you smile

Whether you are dancing in the rain 

or watching it from a confined space

Rain will help those anxieties slip away

And water your soul with love.

Follow your Passion, It will lead you to Success!

  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 me to go ahead with it. And Guess what? It

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 Armani, Gucci or Nike. When it came to looks neither did i  wear fake lashes nor did I have hair extensions.  I did not have a tongue piercing, ta
