I know its been almost more than a week since I was away from blogging,reason being my short trip to Singapore, ,I am back all with lotz of good memories and experiences,one such experience is of traveling with Advay alone for the first time.
Guys how u all manage traveling with kids alone,I really had an experience this time ,as there was ample time for boarding I thought of taking Advay to Butterfly park in terminal three of Changi aiport,on the way to the park I saw childrens play area,so thought maybe I should let him play there for some time I never thought that he wont come out of the play area easily ,when there was time for boarding the flight
had to pull him out of the airport play area ,I really thought I gonna miss the flight as Advay was not ready to come out of the airport play area ,he used to slide from his buggy and from my lap too and after pulling him out for umpteenth time,I almost gave up,..but thanks to a saleswoman at the airport she managed for help for me at the terminal ,she asked someone to push the trolley for me so that I could manage Advay alone ,which was difficult again as he was not sitting on the luggage trolley, finally had to distract him with chocolates and thanks god I was able to board the flight on time
What a day it was and what a experience,..now when I have to travel alone with Advay I have to think twice,.;-)
Coming back to this post,today I gonna share recipe of Parsi style chicken biryani which I prepared from Parsi cook book.

Imagine 20 hrs of flying time coupled with 6 hrs of transit and another 4 hrs or so in either airport for checkin & baggage retrieval. Just thinking abt it makes gives me shudders.
