Dobbicles
I hope my Dobby finds this and reads it. He is quite a weird kid, house elf actually.He smiles in his sleep and sing "you're so nice and you're so smart,you're such a good friend I can break your heart" which i thought was a song that he cooked up when he was supposed to be cleaning the shoe cupboard.But Dobby made me listen to it on his IPOD and it is a real song.My Dobby plays his guitar and taps his foot in rhythm.He sings and then throws his pokey head backwards and laughs.He falls asleep with a book in his hand, which is weird coz Dobby is illiterate.Dobby has a little yellow pouch that his master got him, and he keeps his prized possessions in it. Which include earphones, earbuds, and earrings.and a little dust.and a torn bus ticket.Dobby supports Royal Challenge(rs?)Banagalore, because he is a devotee of Rahul Dravid, and Dobby prays at night when everyone else sleeps.Or so i would believe.Dobby is a darling.My Dobby is like no other.Which is pretty much understood, because there is only ONE Dobby :D

FOOD!
you know you are a foodie when:
~when all your phone calls with friends end with "lets talk it over coffee sometime soon"
~when you say random things like "the bestest sev puri ever is at this chat place in the lane next to VT station,third left-fourth shop to the right" or "dude,you've gotta taste this kulfi thing i had in poona"
~when you find yourself secretly hoping that you had called for the brownie that the the woman at the next table is having,although you've already had a dessert of your own
~ When your friend excitedly tells you about an icrecream place in Santacruz and without batting an eyelid you say,"yeh Gokuls.i go there like all the time"
~you drag your friend after a proper meal, from Khar to Lokhandwala,only coz "I feel like having the chicken frankie from BreadKraft.
~you never miss the 1st day of the month at Gelato.
~you never have lesser than 3 scoops of Gelato on the above mentioned day.
~you say "shit i have put on so much weight" and eat a whole bar of chocolate the next minute.
~ Food is appropriate for all your emotions-anger,happiness,anxiety,worry,sadness,little excitement,lots of excitement,when you're tired,when you're bored.when you're waiting for someone to call,before and after ever meal.
~ You have tasted the masala pav at Sahakari Bhandar and love it.
~ You are a regular at Croissants and the guy behind the counter knows your order by now
~ You have intense conversations with like minded friends about food.
~ Cheese fondue at relish and Chocolate mousse cake at Vanilla can make you swoon at any given point of time.
~ you finish your friends iced tea and sandwich and then have the nerve to complain that the iced tea flavour wasnt nice.
~ your friend keeps swatting away your hand everytime it seems like it may grab a bit of the food of his plate.
~ Your nickname is the name of a yummy food thing.
~ nothing except the smell of warm toasted bread and butter can wake you up.not even a woman who is yelling into your ear and pulling off your blanket(mother)
~whenthe subway guy,your parents,friends neighbours and everyone close to you or not so close even know that you DONT like tomatoes and olives in your chicken teriyaki sub.
~ when you grab bites of stuff from the pot while its still cooking.
~ when you tell your friend,"i'll come help with your project if you come after that to have pani puri at super sweets with me"
~ when one of your best friends renames you something that means "a person who hogs a lot" on his phone.
~ when your friends favorite past-time is poking fun at your eating habits.
~ when you finish a whole packet of oatmeal cookies all by yourself when you're supposedly on a diet and then when your friends laugh at you you say,"WHAT?!its healthy food okay!"
~ when your terms of endearment are "you're a pumpkin pie" and "you're my chocolate chip cookie"
~ when your blog is called richdarkchocolate
