VIEWS OF MY HOMETOWN FROM MY AIRBNB RENTAL
The Lunch Box, a heartwarming movie set in Mumbai, revolves around a mistaken delivery by the Dabbawalas (lunchbox service) of Mumbai, which leads to a relationship between Saajan, a lonely widower close to retirement, and Ila, an unhappy housewife, as they start exchanging notes through the daily lunchbox.

An Italian police car in Vatican City
Curious, I asked ChatGPT if the Italian police is permitted to enter the Vatican.
It looks like you enjoyed watching the trains.
ReplyDeleteThat traditional Keralan dinner looks really impressive!
ReplyDeleteThose are wonderful photos from your rooftop. Oh my -- I always leave your posts hungry. Do you make those fabulous cookies?
ReplyDeleteChinese balloons are spectacular!
ReplyDeleteI love yellow rice (Pulao and Paneer), but it isn't easy to buy yellow rice here in Italy.
We can always see Italian police in Vatican Square but, as mentioned by ChatGTP, Italian police can't cross the border.
Have a nice weekend, Veronica!
those train track snapshots bring me back to simpler days. i do love a good train ride somewhere!
ReplyDeleteWhat a delicious meals, thanks for your sharing...
ReplyDeleteThe Indian dishes look so fantastic!
ReplyDeleteAll the food looks fantastic. You have such a nice variety. YUM!
ReplyDeleteThat was an interesting read on the Vatican police. All the dished look like you had a nice selection. Good food!
ReplyDeleteThe guardian lions are very cool!! I loved the shots of your hometown. I think my wife and I watched the Lunch Box. She loves all things Bollywood.

ReplyDeleteDearest Veronica,
ReplyDeleteBoth of us love the south Indian food—very spicy!
Interesting movie about wanting to add spice of life...
Yes, the Vatican is totally separate legally.
Hugs,
Mariette
Both, the food and the view is so colourful and inviting.

The food looks amazing thanks for the great pictures.
ReplyDeleteYour posts are always interesting. I love certain Indian food, but haven't tried a Keralan spread like that. Looks soo good. Your cookie is adorable, so much detail. Is your airbnb in PJ? I've stayed at several - Penang, Malacca and in KL(walkable to the Pavilion Mall)
ReplyDeleteChinese guardian lions look pretty.... and the maker so creative....
ReplyDeleteHave a nice day

Hello,
ReplyDeleteI like the balloon lions and the cute cookie. Your dinner looks delicious, so many choices. It is nice to see photos of your hometown. Take care, have a wonderful week!
Wow what a beautiful blog again with the food looking delicious. To those Chinese guardian lions made of balloons are true works of art. But also the views were beautiful. And especially the quote you posted there. Life is like a train ride I always say. I had once wrote this words too https://tinedejong.blogspot.com/2018/02/trein-van-jouw-leven.html but i react now with my nature website because I had met a beautiful nature reserve. And would like to share this with you and maybe others also who read this. And if you go one page back on this website with you will also see a super beautiful encounter with a special caterpillar I had met. L.G, Tine NL
ReplyDeleteVery cool! How does anyone cut into that cake? I wouldn't want to take the first piece.
ReplyDeleteThat dragon cookie is amazing.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for sharing at http://image-in-ing.blogspot.com/2023/08/a-foggy-morning-on-kanawha-river-in.html
What nice photos liked the train ones too but my fave was that lovely food as always heheh! :-)
ReplyDeleteHave a gallimaufrytastic week ๐
Visiting the Vatican was so much fun, I definitely want to go again. The fact that they have their own police force for such a small area is truly unique!
ReplyDeleteThe Lunchbox sounds like a sweet movie, just what we need sometimes (don't imagine we will get it here though)..... loved your food photos and must remember not to come here just before I start to think about making dinner -- mine will not look as delicious today .
ReplyDeleteThe train pictures really got to me. I love to hear the train whistle blowing. My grandfather worked for the railroad in the same town that I was born in. The food looks so delicious on your post today. I especially like that cookie. What a delightful display of the Chinese lions made out of balloons. Interesting about the Vatican. Jess went there several years ago, and brought me back a Rosary. It was a very special gift.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful week.

I like the look of the Keralan dinner. Never did quite get to Kerala, just Goa.
ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteYour dinner does look amazing, yum! Love the cute cookie critter and the balloon lion. Neat captures of the train and your hometown. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a great day and week ahead.
Dear Veronica, I also really liked the film The Lunch Box - and that statement is true. My girlfriend Gaby and I actually and literally once (in 1981) took a "wrong" train to the "right" station: we were supposed to go to Valencia, but for some reason the train ended in Barcelona - where our Interrail journey after many problems became really perfect!
ReplyDeleteYour food photos are very tempting again and the Chinese guardian lions as balloons and cookies are funny.
Have a good time!
Hugs and all the best,
Traude

The food looks so delectable! And I love the colorful display of the balloon lion, what great design.Thanks for the movie recommendation! I am a big fan of Bollywood movies :)
ReplyDeleteGreat above shots of the scenery. Such interesting looking feasts and be interesting to try some. Not sure what the colorful things are called, but fun to look at.
ReplyDeleteI love yellow rice and the paneer looks delicious.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful views of your hometown.
Around Vatican City there are always a lot of Police cars.
Lovely views from your Air BnB.
ReplyDeleteYour posts are quite a feast for our eyes, Veronica. :) The pictures of the Biryani and egg masala and paneer burji... the trains in the midst of all that greenery are all lovely. And nice to know that you enjoyed watching Lunchbox. :)
ReplyDeleteI hope you're having a great week. :)
I'll tell ya what, your country doesn't look that much different then Chicago... hahaha The food for the Hispanics is probably as spicy as yours... hahaha
ReplyDeleteThose Chinese guardian lions are amazing. We would never have guessed they were made of balloons. Awesome balloon art.
ReplyDelete...food, food and more food. You won't go hungry! I hope that you are having a wonderful week.
ReplyDeleteOh the food. Oh the food. Delicious. I want to eat with you.

Looking at all that food has made me hungry!
ReplyDeleteWhen I see the photos with food, for me it's a sort of science fiction.
ReplyDeleteToo complicated and elaborated! But they look fabulous!
I like the quote, I like the trains and did not see the movie. I'll keep it in mind!
Huggs and blessings, Veronica! Happy WW and a fine week ahead!❤️๐

ReplyDeleteI admire your photos, and the delicious food. The movie sounds intriguing.
ReplyDeleteThe Chinese Lions!! My oldest used to be the bottom of one for shows. He still volunteers to instruct with the teacher from his youth. It's a love that has lasted a lifetime.
ReplyDeleteAll of the food in the photos looks colorful and vibrant! It looks so good that I want to dig in! Interesting information about the Vatican City and the Italian police. I was there two months ago, but didn't know that!
