Hunt for Gifts Starts

We will be visiting family in India next month. I have started shopping for gifts for family and friends. My father is a surgeon, so this time I was looking for some surgical scrub to gift him. I found this online scrub store which has wide variety of medical scrubs for sale. Look at

the simply adorable scrub hat. I fell in love with it the minute I saw it.
Men's scrub hat collection is no less gorgeous either.

Isn't it lovely? Of course I can't gift it to my dad, but it certainly suits the personality of a sports loving medical professional. I think the following scrub hat will suit my father who is a senior professor of Surgery at the medical college.

This online store provides a whole new aspect of medical uniforms, that they can be bright and colorful, instead of dull and grubby looking.

A watch for My Brother-in law

I will be returning to India next month. I am thinking of taking either a jacket or a watch for my brother-in law. I think Luminox Navy SEAL Watch will suit his personality. He is a tall and smart guy. Sporty gear looks fabulous on him. The site where I found this watch, sells all types of police gear, ranging from under armour jackets, holsters, duty gear, flashlights, tactical shirts and pants, and elbow pads to footwear and boots. My brother-in law isn't a cop and he is not even in the army, but he likes to collect stuff which is not ordinary or run of the mill. I am sure he will like his watch.

Good Bye Errol ( Flynn)

A few weeks ago my mother told me over phone that many of my books have been damaged by termites. I was really upset because one of my favorite books, a biography of Errol Flynn (My Wicked Wicked Ways) was also eaten. This made me to search for ways of how to inspect for termites.I have bought some more movie related books and I don't want them to meet the same end. The article that I found has a lot of useful information on termites. There are several signs of termite presence in your house, such as holes and powdered wood, bubbles on painted wood, a hollow sound when you tap the wood. It is also important to know how termites make home in wood. Humidity is an ideal environment for termites to flourish, so be on look out for any dark and moist places in your home. Also give a thorough check to your new house if you are shifting.

Star gazing and a Site for Telescopes

Now a days skies are clear, and I want to watch stars. But it is very frustrating that the sun sets past ten in summers. When the sky is clear, you can set the telescope in the attic or in the garden. I remember, our father used to tell a lot of stories about stars when we were kids. I don't have a telescope in this house. Though I am thinking of buying one.
The site I have marked is: optics planet.net.I am thinking of buying a Celestron PowerSeeker 127 EQ Newtonian Telescope from them. They are offering a 36% rebate on it. It is a good telescope, a perfect choice for an amateur star gazer like me. The site has a wide range of optical equipments, right from prescription glasses to binoculars, Sunglasses, magnifiers, sports optics and flash lights.

Block Unwanted Calls

It is really annoying, when you are in middle of something and a the phone buzzes. You take the call thinking that it might be regarding some important issue at the office.Instead, you find out that some photography institute is offering you a portfolio on discount. Now why would you want a portfolio? I have to attend many such annoying calls every day. I was thinking of a Reverse Cell Phone Lookup,so that I get an idea of who is calling me. But then I found a better option. I can add my cell phone no or land line number to No Call List, which is a free service. If you want to enlist your cell phone number then you have to call at (888)382-1222, do as instructed and you are done. You won't be getting unsolicited calls.Land line phone owners have to register at a government website ( for free) donotcall.gov, and they will tell you how you can add your number to no call list. It will take around thirty days to get the services working.

Friends are Coming

My husband's friend is coming with his new bride today. They will be staying with us for three days. I have to go shopping and get some stuff for cooking. I am planning to make Kadhai Paneer. Capsicum are in the fridge. I need to buy Paneer and tomatoes. I will be going to Sainsbury which isn't very far from the house.
