The Climate Curry!

 Funny sounds the title of the blog today, right? Meant it to be so. Let me now 'explicate' it. Curry is what India is known for, right? What is a curry as it is typically understood, especially abroad? It is often a mix of veggies, with a seasoning added to it to make it unique. That is the way eateries make it.

Well, the climate currently is quite like the curry. It is a 'season'ed mix. In the morning, it is quite winter like, a little cold, slightly misty. As the day drags on, it is sizzling hot, almost like the summer. Tired with all such mix-up, it often rains in the evening. It is quite a curry, a mix-n-mash of all the seasons in a day! Hence the title of this piece!

Reminded me of a story i read as a child. It dealt with parents who had two daughters. One of the girls was married off to a farmer, and the other to a potter. The parents were happy that their daughters married in to the same town. The problem emerged when they had to bless them. If they wished for blissful rains, the potter's wife grumbled, and if they wished for a proper hot summer, the farmer's wife cried!

Given the climate curry these days, better to be careful as wishes would have to be almost as unpredictable as the current climate! What say?😀
