Another trip

A quick weekend road trip to Chennai for a family get together. The boy slept most of the way but started getting cranky when his breakfast was delayed. He ate Pongal and Vada and knocked over my coffee. Reached home and there were many people to pamper the boy. In the evening we went to Tryst CafĂ© with the boy in his diapers. He tasted different pastries, loved them all. This was followed by a family dinner at Mid-Waters, Madras Boat Club. He devoured the ice cream. I think it was the travel and the exhaustion – the boy slept soundly and woke up only once in the night.

The next day lunch was at the Madras Race Club, where he drank the bitter lemon juice after making faces. On the drive back, the boy threw a tantrum when we refused to let him stand in the rear seat and as the night fell, his crying increased. We stopped for dinner at my parents place, he quieted down when he saw the lights and ate a dinner of puttu kadla, papad and some dosa. The boy also ate pomegranate seeds!
