The Lone Dinner

I take all the time and pride to prepare three healthy meals. I like working in the kitchen. But I can prepare food good only for myself. Food good for health; I have my own local menu. Moreover, there isn't any fixed menu. Whatever I feel is good for health becomes my menu. 

I usually go for organic stuff. A green vegetable, fruits, leaves items. I also go for Pasta. Varieties of noodles, boiled potatoes, raw cabbage leaves. However, morning breakfast is typically an egg with bread, soup from green leaves. 

From normal Bhutanese, I take less rice, less chilli, less oil, less salt, and less delicious food but good for health. In one of my previous posts, I have written about Bhutanese food habits and the way forward. 

Interestingly, I have seen mountains of green vegetables and eatables around our rich biodiversity. It is time to rethink and start such food culture to our younger generation that can help an overly paralyzed economy, it can at least cut down a few per cent (1%) of import in food items from India. 

If not for all, I eat food rich in fiber, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants that can help boost my immune system which ultimately helps to fight different illnesses, digestive problems and develop bone density. 


Wasteful! a delightful dinner from a lone man. I wish sometime, I had some interesting stranger who can join up for meal time. However, I fear they might not like my item/menu.

Golden Words Of King Jigme Singye Wangchuck

King Jigme Singye Wangchuck "...in particular, speaking for myself; my sorrow in having lost my own father is indeed very great. What is more the country has lost a king whose kind has till now never been known..."                                                                ( Royal proclamation to the people of Bhutan, July 26, 1972)                                      "...as far as you, my people, are concerned, you should not adopt the attitude that whatever is required to be done for your welfare will be done entirely by the government.

The Story of Malika Chand.

There lived a schoolteacher named Malika Chand. She loved teaching and treated her students as she would, her own children. Nurturing their potential with great kindness. Her perennial motto was, 'Your,  I can is more important than your,  IQ .' She was known throughout her community as a person who lived to give. Who selflessly served anyone in need? Sadly, her beloved school, which had stood as a silent witness to the delightful progress of generations of children, succumbed to the flames of a fire set by an arsonist one night. All those in the community felt this great loss. But as time passed by, their anger gave way to apathy and they resigned themselves to the fact that their children would be without a school. "What about Malika?"   "She was different, an eternal optimist if there ever was one. Unlike everyone around her, she perceived opportunity in what had happened. She told all the parents that every setback offers an equivalent benefit ...
