Back to basics



The other day, I went for a stroll with the cute lil' friend of mine, Kashyap. This kid wanted to go to a mall but it's too late to visit that mall. So instead, I took him to a supermarket and we were window shopping after buying a few chocolates for him. Suddenly, this guy started shouting "Whooost, uncle". I couldn't understand it and saw towards the direction which he's pointing to. There was a sale of the "Boost", a well known nutritional energy drink.
In childhood, this was my favourite but I don't remember what compelled my parents to shift to another drink "Bournvita". It's been years since I tasted Boost. So I decided to buy one this time and enjoy the flavours of my childhood. And the coincidence is, I'm writing this sipping a hot cup of Boost. Thank you, Kashyap.

Hey...hey...Satish..this is a real coincidence. Someone I know is coming from India and just a few minutes before opening your blog I was thinking of asking them to bring me Boost!!

I don't remember the taste of it but I used to religiuosly drink it because my childhood hero Kapil Dev endorsed it on TV. That was reason enough for me to drink it even though I hated milk when I was a kid.

You brought a flood of childhood memories and a happy smile on my face with your blog. Thanks a lot!
