Making of 2.0

Dhanesh got his Robot doll through his aunt, which was got in USA on the same year when Enthiran was released. The dancing Robot via spring key mechanism.


Few years back, it stopped working. Though it was not working, it was in our home under assumption it will come back to live one day.


Our hope came to realization by my father, who made it work again. So our chitti reloaded version two point o came live..

watch out the video here.

Now comes the making part... It was the traditional trick of "coconut oil" which gave the life to it.

குட்டி குறும்பு [16] - நீ அம்மாவா ? அம்மா அம்மாவா ?

பல நேரம் தீபக் அடம் பிடிப்பான். அதோட இல்லாது "இப்படி செய் அப்படி செய் " ஒரே ஆர்டர்  தான். தீபக் சொன்ன பேச்சு கேட்கலைன்னா , அவன் வாயை அடைக்க " நீ அம்மாவா நான் அம்மாவா  ?" அப்படி கேட்டா போதும். "நீ தான் அம்மா , அம்மா பேச்சை கேட்குறேன் " அப்படின்னு அமைதியா சொன்ன பேச்சு கேட்பான்.

இதை பார்த்த அவன் அண்ணன் , தம்பி தான் சொன்ன பேச்சை கேட்காத போது "நீ அம்மாவா , அம்மா அம்மாவா ?" கேட்டான். எனக்கு சிரிப்பு வந்தது. பாவம் சின்ன பையன் . "நீ அண்ணனா நான் அண்ணனா ?" என்று கேட்க தெரியவில்லை பையனுக்கு .

Italian Seasoning Ingredients

During the recent shopping, I was looking for an Italian seasoning. While I was looking at some other brand, sales lady tried to push me this one.

Below are the Ingredients

Crushed Chilly

Black Pepper

Oregano

Iodised Sea Salt

White Onion Flakes

Garlic

Basil

Fennel

Lemon Zest

Thyme

Good thing about this is that, they have declared that no MSG added. On the other hand, the bottle is not refillable. I have not tried this yet.

Home made Pillows - Recycled synthetic cotton

The word "Home made" is something which attracts every one. We had around nearly half dozen Recron old pillows which was damn slim post usage. We had to stack two to three pillows to compensate a single new pillow.  I have been thinking whether to throw it away or do something with that.

Thought of Recycling the synthetic cotton inside the pillow. After opening the cloth, we removed and discarded pillow cloth and the hard layer of synthetic cotton alone. The soft layers of synthetic cotton was collected and dried up in open air for a day. We need not fear like the traditional cotton as it will create dust allergies. These synthetic cotton will be staying together and will not fly much under fan too.

Then comes the major part in making a pillow using a good cloth. My  suggestion would be to use a synthetic or satin material. The tailors would be able to make the pillow cloth leaving a small opening to stuff the synthetic cotton.

Now , with the new pillow cloth, we can stuff the cotton and once stuffing is complete, close the opening with simple stitching using needle and thread.
