The stray dogs of my locality are growing up at an alarming rate. Yesterday when I saw two of them following me for 1.5 seconds, I raised my voice and said ‘shoooo’ and they ran away! Either they know my scent that I belong to the house which feeds them or my voice fills terror in their hearts 
The rose plant buds quarterly. That too one lone, single rose. By the time it blooms fully and then withers away, it’s almost a fortnight. 15 days of pretty sight as soon as I open the main door.
Since a couple of days, a small, tiny sandy white cat has been visiting our home at odd hours. Especially when we are having dinner. It meows sitting from the window sill. Yesterday it might have caught the scent of fried fish, but day before yesterday, it was beans-kurma. Do cats like beans š š Or maybe it came to give me a glimpse š
Each flower of the ridge-gourd plant is under high scrutiny. The ants eat away the sweet pollens thus leaving no chance for us to relish the vegetable. So FIL is always on his toes, spraying his herbal medicine on the plant as soon it starts flowering. We have been able to save 3 flowers as of today.
Can you guess who makes the biggest noise when we are in our deepest slumbers? The heavily grunting pigs! I have no idea what they have to discuss right outside our bedroom and why they choose this place to convene regularly without fail. We won’t get a sight of them all day long but come midnight, they make their presence felt. Sigh.
Some new variety of pink flowers are blooming alongside the jasmine plants. The two make a beautiful couple. The pink ones do not give out any fragrance, but they have the jasmine’s scent hint lingering on them. The pentagon shaped petals sit perfectly on the photo frames in the prayer room.
The little world of Visha 
hey, seems the neighborhood pets adore you and noises made by pigs are a distraction to sleep.
Too much distraction š
Awww what a lovely post!!! I really feel like you are talking about my parents’ place in chennai, everytime you describe something about your house. Its so much alike!! š
Really?? š š
ahem grunting pigs outside your bedroom eh? seize the opportunity and indulge in some heavy duty, wild stuff on your bed with Zack. Everyone will think it’s the pigs š
š„ The noises are heard only in our bedroom. No one else in the house are able to hear anything. We are already viewed with suspicion when we complain about the pigs š„ š„
Lol š
Cute post. I think I know what flower you are referring to but no idea about the name either.
And btw, I am not buying that pig story Me’m š š
you not believing me…you are in the family’s team against us then šÆ š„
You guys must have soothing personalities that is why you have so many floras and fauna besides!!! Enjoy the joys in search of which we explore the outskirts of city š
We live in the suburbs too š Sometimes it is a pain, sometimes it is a blessing š
White cats are cute na and pigs noise is so damn irritating, my sis is pretty good in making those and keep doing that to irritate me? Btw do you live on the ground flour?
Your sis sure knows how to give you a hard time
Yeah, ground floor.
LOL. Your home sounds like one fantastic place, full of flora and fauna. š
The fauna makes it terrifying sometimes š
What! There are pigs in your neighborhood? I haven’t seen pigs in a while in residential areas.
Oh I live in a semi domesticated jungle š
You sound like the goddess of jungle, remember the one from Chronicles of Narnia?!?!
Hai raam, aisa kuch nahi hai re..you should see the huge gardens some of the houses have here š
