My mother was a remarkable woman with a hectic life.
We had many servants, including a cook, but she had her hands full managing the household.
She did some cooking at times. It was of the experimental kind. She would bake cakes and butter
biscuits for us. Once she followed a magazine recipe and made toothpowder ! At another time she
made a new kind of fuel for the boiler, a copper vessel with a water heating system attached to it.
Come summer and she would start rolling out papads at home – which were dried on the terraceWe children would hop around and try to help her. She never said it was a bother but let us do what
we liked. Mother had several hobbies. One of them was to buy litho prints of gods and human
beings. She would dress them up with bits of cloth, mirrors, beads and sequins. How hideous they
days they were in fashion. Mother was good at both tennis and badminton. She also played golf.
She was the unbeaten local chess champion. She played a good game of bridge as well. At home
we loved it when she joined us for carom or card games. She brought so much life and laughter with
her I was very proud of my mother.
