Could it be Oprah writing to me?

Oprah Winfrey to me
(2 hours ago)

Got your email.
Thank you for watching the finale. I could feel your beating hearts, along with mine, through the TV screen.
I'm off to take a little rest, and then I'll get busy working on OWN.

Take care of yourself.

I'll write soon,
Oprah

There it is. Plain and simple. The simplest and most heartfelt reply. Sure anyone could have typed it. That's the ugly fact that's out to burst my happy bubble at this hour of night.
Sure anyone could have replied to an email on Oprah's behalf but I'd like to believe that she did read my humble blog and this is her reply. However brief.

I quickly did some mental maths and realised its early morning in the US. So it has to be Oprah (or her secretary/publicist) who sent an email out to little ole me. Even so, I'm feeling so happy to have made a connection. I'm willing to admit that I spent quite a few times writing to the Oprah.com website and got nothing. No reply, no make overs and certainly no free invite to the show:) So this, here. This email. It is HUGE. It is everything.

Maybe it was just sheer devastation at the fact that it was her very last show, but I believed Oprah when she said 'write to me at this address and I will be reading the emails.' I have to believe that lady O sat down to read my blog and has taken the trouble to reply.

So go away if you don't believe and leave me on my OWN:)

    I'm overjoyed at your joy sis :-) I know how precious Ophrah's reply means to you and I definitely won't be the one to rain on your parade...
    For all the years you (and I) have been her fan, this acknowledgement just validates even more the love we have for this great lady :-) Keep smiling and thanks for sharing...Love you :-)

    It's hard to come by well-informed people about this topic, however, you sound like you know what you're talking about!

    Thanks

Seafood with a lot of soul

Location is everything.  Not every eatery can offer scenic views to its guests. Fish and Bread in the UAE, offers all this and much more. Situated at the heart of Al Marjan Island in Ras Al Khaimah, this modest eatery offers the most delectable South Indian, Italian and Arabic meals. Many visitors choose to catch the sunset, while others sit under the stars and dine here, amid the backdrop of fountains and greenery. The service is quick and friendly. Appetizers include salt and pepper crispy squid or golden calamari. For mains, the Chemmeen Manga curry is a must try. It is made with raw mango and prawns and is served in a clay pot and is bursting with flavour. It is paired with steamed white rice. Another particularly tempting dish is the beef parotha. Made in authentic South Indian flavours, it is a medley of rich flavours which bursts in your mouth. Instead of the usual chapatti, you may want to try the Tapioca bread or 'Kappa,' which can be paired with a vegetar

Meet the quirky director of Fanney Khan

Film Director, Atul Manjrekar An interview by Abigail Mathias  He was one of the silliest guys in college. Walked around with a red bandana singing Kishore Kumar songs. At least that’s how I remember my friend, Atul Manjrekar. Cut to 20 years later. And now Atul is the director of a major Bollywood film, a musical drama, called  Fanney Khan . The film stars leading actors Anil Kapoor, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Rajkumar Rao. Thankfully Atul is still the pun cracker I remember, except he is clearly in another league. Atul’s first feature film will release in a few days and I can’t help but beam with pride. The film has already crossed many millions in trailer views on YouTube. Fanney Khan is played by the ever-youthful Anil Kapoor, who’s struggling to fulfill the dreams of his daughter, Lata who wishes to be a singer. The film releases in India on August 3. It’s taken me three days to get 10 minutes to talk to the busy director. “Aren’t you excited that your first b
