Childhood Reminiscence- I

When I was small, (I mean, age wise. Those who know me, DON’T LAUGH!) I would be very talkative and would give back answers to those who would disagree with me.

But here is one of my most fondest memories which has nothing to do with my behaviour but my very cute and attractive personality when I was small [oh, those good ol’ days]

Whenever my parents would decide to go out for dinner, the first question I would ask is as long as there’s A.C. [Air-Conditioners], I’d come :) and my parents would be like, “yeah right, as if this madam was born with a silver spoon, she wants A.C wherever she goes.” [hehe! Considering now I’m not too fond of A.C. and feel really sick when the A.C. is on in a car] These memories of mine are all during my K.G. to 3rd STD age group.

Anyway, one day we went out for dinner to Copper Chimney at Bandra, Mumbai with a family friend of ours. We ordered for Punjabi food, the usual Roti, palak panneer, butter chicken and I love Pineapple Raita, so ordered for that [you all must taste pineapple raita in some good Punjabi joint where they really whip the curd well, add the right amount of sugar and add pieces of pineapple. Ummm, ok I know I go too much into the specifics :)]
So here comes my pineapple raita [its lovely to have it with the spicy stuff that you order] and they’ve put cherries in it also. Now I love all fruits except banana, so I was thrilled to have cherries too! Here’s the part I’m not too clear as to what happened, but I guess either someone else finished the cherries that I wanted or that I finished the cherries and was wanting more. So here I was craving and whining for more cherries. There was this cute waiter who was serving us and he saw me whining away to glory!

AND YOU KNOW WHAT HE DOES??!!

Well, this waiter after like five minutes, gets me a bowl of just cherries for me!!
Yes, like around 10 cherries JUST FOR ME!! Gives me a cute smile and I get all so excited and thrilled and happy!! That was one of the sweetest things any stranger has done for me! In that excitement, I don’t know whether I even thanked the waiter but I’ll be forever thankful for his wonderful deed. Don’t you think that was one of the most thoughtful things anyone could do to you? Any stranger would do for you?

Will always remember this incident in my life and if that waiter is ever gonna read my blog, a BIG THANK YOU!! You made my day that day!

I’m not sure whether the uncle who came with us ordered it for me without my knowledge, if so, I thank him as well! :)
