This Is How The Story Develops

Life is full of discourses ,people began their narration from rural to urban areas I just clap on the skills of development of incidents.Like cooking recipes ,narrative has lots of things to do to mean something or comprehension level gets benefited when multiple theories are added as charm.Story, in its simplest form, is about a character and the things that happen to them.A story has a beginning, middle, and end. Where we explore the desire, dilemmas, and choices that a character faces. Think of a story as an anecdote or vignette that recounts specific moments, with a time and place. It provides us with entertainment, insight, or even a lesson on life.Everybody has a story. From the boardroom to social media. Infinite stories. Billions and trillions of stories. Where every story matters.

People often ask why do I use recipes in facebook as part of daily life.While most food bloggers may know what food blogging is about, does the world know what food blogging is? These are the bloggers who cook extensively, and post about their cooking stories along with super appetising pictures. It could be anything from a blog that documents highly authentic recipes, or experiential food or just about anything that one is cooking.Most often a food blog has overlapping elements of these three things. It’s usually a niche that is talked about with great detailing and story telling and occasionally has product and restaurant reviews.

People enjoy social interactions and people enjoy good food therefore this pairing of food and culture only makes sense. Once you begin to understand food and culture you can comprehend why recipes vary in different places in the world. Food is a necessary part of life but people like to garnish and inject their creativity into the mundane required meals. Creating delicious food and the development of various cooking techniques is dictated by our need to experiment and enjoy life. When we are given the time and resources we can create an almost unlimited number of delicious recipes and combinations of food. As people like to share and experience life together this naturally lends itself to the social aspect regarding food. In places in the world where traditions are still important there are inevitably traditions that revolve around food and have formed the basis of their culture. Once you begin to understand that food has driven culture in the same way that culture has driven food you will begin to appreciate all of the wonderful variety in recipes from different parts of the world; maybe even cooking some of them for yourself. 

The story of food to basic things of life is narrated when cultural representational images are always shown or uploaded in different social media .Every time we eat a piece of food, we take a bite out of the world. All these small bites tell a dozen stories.Very often stories about food focus on authenticity. That is the way food would like to be – authentic and natural – like in the old days when people harvested their own crops.

Story of Girinagar Delhi During October for Foodie

October month has been arrived and beautiful Girinagar Delhi has given the symptoms of festivals everywhere.The beauty of an urban area depicts through its storytelling as it performs the events as memory .It is a blend of all kinds of mores an Indian city can offer. From the extremely upmarket and ‘afternoon garden party’ loving culture in South Delhi to the spik and span roads and buildings in lieutenant Delhi and to the loudness and chaos in North Delhi, the city changes in its outlook every 5 miles. If this change is just not enough, the city harbours the best of architecture in the form of ancient monuments such as Qutub Minar and Red Fort which speak of perhaps the most important part of Indian History. 

The enchanting sound of Qawwalis coming from the Nizamuddin Shrine, Aartis from Chattarpur Mandir and Gurbanis from Bangla Sahib mingled with the high-pitched music of discos and pubs.  The diversity of Delhi makes it colorful and lively to live in. The exquisite design of Jama Masjid reflects Indo-Persian architecture; well known temples such as Birla Temple and Chattarpur Temple complex display the architectural styles of North and South India. The places of worship, popular in Delhi include the Gurdwaras of Delhi like Bangla Sahib, Gurdwara Raquab Ganj and Sheesh Ganj, famous Churches like St. Mary’s, St. Thomas and St. Columbus. Remarkable Lotus Temple represents the Bahai culture and its marvelous architecture. You can find the Jain and Buddhist shrines along with the Tibetan monastery in the city. 

Girinagar as part of Delhi has many stories as walking city .Giri Nagar, Kalkaji is a Locality in North East Delhi City in Delhi State, India.Its near to Govindpuri and Okhla and easily reachable by metro,bus and taxi so you can enjoy the days here during Ocotber.Its stands as a narrator of seasons and festivals around delhi and speaks lots of stories from Ramayanaas it is part of Delhi ,which is the city of Dilwalo ki. The Pandavas made a very beautiful castle and the city. They called this place Indraprastha. The Purana Quila in Delhi is believed to be the palace of Pandavas.

Delhi and Delhi-ites are known as much for their insatiable appetites as they are for the unending variety of food found in the city.Delhiwallas love to eat and therefore you’ll find food stalls in every street of the city. So if you are in Delhi and want to have street food, you’ll be spoilt for choice.The sheer variety of paranthas available in Delhi is mind-boggling. From basic ones like aloo, egg, gobi, mooli to more interesting stuff like green chilli, keema, kaju and rabri paranthas you get it all in the capital. Have it for breakfast, lunch or dinner, with pickle, white butter or curd.With a slight dip in the temperature, it's time to gear up for the winter chills. The nooks and corners of Delhi offer lots of lip smacking street foods which must not be missed at any cost. Winter is fast paving the way for the spring to take-over, and we are a bundle of mixed-feelings.From piping hot kachoris, to indulgent niharis and the ever-so-delightful gajar ka halwa- there is no dearth of food or foodies on the streets of Delhi.

Durga Puja in Girinagar

Durga puja time is near now,Delhi the beautiful bride is waiting its beautiful seasons of celebration and Durga puja is one of them.Durga Puja celebrates the victory of the goddess Durga over the demon Mahishasura. This is a festival that celebrates the female force or Shakti and is one of the most popular festivals in east India.Typically Durga Puja is celebrated during the final five days of Navratri.Large pandals are raised on street corners and beautiful statues of Durga are installed in it.If you are ready to visit Durga pandals you must reach to Govindpuri Junctions and CR Park of New Delhi where easily you can enjoy Durga Puja with family.The Goddess comes with Her children Devi Lakshmi, Devi Saraswati, Lord Ganesha and Lord Kartik.

Bodhan refers to awakening and as per the Puranas, Ram had first performed this ritual to cause to defeat Ravana. This event is referred to as Akalbodhanand the Durga is referred to as Sharadiya. With our prayers and puja we are entitled to awaken the supder powers of the almighty Gods and Goddesses and thus to save to save the human masses from getting affected with thje existence of evil powers.

Ghatsthapan  ritual is considered to be very important! In this ritual, a copper or Brass vessel is made filled with water and is set in front of the idol of the Goddess Dura or an earthen base. Right over the vessel, 5, 7 or 9 leaves of mango tree along with a clean piece of cloth and a coconut is placed over the vessel. This is a way of purifying the ambience of the place where it is the vessel is put in.he Samrpan of fruits and other materials is the part of purifying the human soul. Mythalogies teaches us that it is Yagna that makes our souls pure enough to bring in that needed dedication for God.During older times, it was a ritual to sacrifice animals in order to complete the Puja but these days it is considered unethical to take the life of living being for the making completion of any type of Puja.

Yagna.

The bhog is the blessed food of the Durga Puja, a ritual meal lasting five days of the annual religious ceremony. It is eaten at lunch, traditionally by rows of persons seated on the puja bari floor, ladled out by volunteers rushing around importantly, holding large pails of steaming khichuri, straw baskets of fried vegetables and the eagerly-anticipated kheer in delicate pots. We family members enjoy Durga puja a lot and everything prepared on time .The regular visits to nearby pandals add a charm in life.Girinagar is decorated as bride as everyone in the community tries to decorate home as possible and perform the rituals of Navaratree having mata ki chowki bhajans with feeding nine girls after worshipping them.I also love the ritual.

Celebrations of Ashtami and MahaNavami vary from region to region in India. On this day, Havan (sacrificial offerings to fire) ceremony is performed in the morning and Kanya Puja is conducted afterwards.  During this Kanya or Kumari Pujan, 9 girls or 9 kumaris representing 9 forms of Goddess Shakti, are invited at their homes by the devotees. Then they wash their feet, offer ‘bhog’ to them and present them with new clothes and other items. Washing of feet is a way of showing the respect towards the Goddess. They are feasted with the food that includes halwa, puri, chana ya chole ki sabzi and kheer.

Why Delhi is Delhi

Delhi is Delhi as Delhi is dilwalo ki.Delhi loves to be Delhi as it has the love in it.From Pandava’s Indraprastha to the modern day Delhi we have everything ready on the platter to serve.According to Mahabharatha, the Hindu epic text, King Dhritarashtra gave a barren island to Pandavas. The Pandavas made a very beautiful castle and the city. They called this place Indraprastha. The Purana Quila in Delhi is believed to be the palace of Pandavas.A widely accepted and popular theory for the name to be given is that it has been named after a Mauryan dynasty ruler, named Dilu or Dhillu, who had established in 50 BC a city here that was named after him.  Another legend states that the name has a Prakrit/Hindi base from ‘Dehli’ due to Pillar of Delhi having weak foundation and hence, requiring to be moved. This word was also used by the Tomaras for referring the city, who circulated coins named Dehliwal in this region. Bhavishya Purana states that where the current Purana Qila stands, was a fort for offering greater convenience to the four  castes that existed during Prithviraj Chauhan’s reign. 

Delhi is Delhi .Even in Delhi's most residential neighborhoods, hawkers selling roasted corn on the cob, tender coconut juice, and local favorites like the deep-fried mashed-potato patty known as “aloo tikki” troll the streets, calling out their wares in sing-song voices. Listen for the aloo tikki wallah clanging his ladle against his wok and chase him down. Delhi's medieval ruins are all over the city — not only in recognized “sites.” It's strewn with big, forested parks — some of them, like Jamali Kamali, featuring stunning medieval ruins. The tomb of India's second Mughal emperor — who ruled what is today Afghanistan, Pakistan and northern India in the 16th Century — is a stunning, red sandstone mausoleum reminiscent of the white marble Taj Mahal. Named a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1993, it's one of the few architectural marvels in India that has been lovingly restored.

A Foodie note in Girinagar Delhi

Girinagar is the society near Govindpuri Metro Station and has lot of stories in it.You just love the area as it is near to Okhla and Govindpuri Market.Your note becomes a memo when it is jotted down with words like the spider .It is all about flavour and nostalgia, and there are so many foods that signify both of these: the food from home, cooked by grandmothers and mothers. The best way to know a city intimately, is to romance its food.Delhi is all about the amalgamation of cultures, about taking the best from other cities and making them its own.

Delhi is popular for its version of matra kulcha, served on the roadside. Maida kulchas are heated on a tawa and served alongside matra, mildly seasoned with chilli and a squeeze of lime. You can recognise the vendor from afar, as the matar/ matra is usually stored in a traditional brass spherical container.  A denser and creamier form of ice-cream, kulfi is said to have been invented during the Mughal Era somewhere in North India. Summer meals are often incomplete in Delhi without a kulfi stick to round it up, and so you will always find a kulfi corner at Delhi weddings too Delhi is a melting pot of cultures and thus flavours and cuisines. There is a lot more to explore in Delhi besides the above, many dishes that have found their way to the city from shores far away. Momos from Tibet, Kathi Rolls from Kolkata, Malleshwaram Dosa from Karnataka, Dal Makhani from Punjab and Sushi from Japan. However, they still have time to make their mark, and be labelled as Famous Dishes from Delhi.

Delhi has distinct seasons, and once upon a time lifestyles revolved around the weather. Special dishes were made in the monsoon like Harimirch Qeema, Besani Roti and fresh Mango Chutney. Special chutneys were made with raw mango to save us from the severe heat. People in Delhi are exceedingly particular about taseer — inherent food properties and their effects on the body.The Mughal cuisine, that is Indo Persian, is probably the cuisine that best defines Delhi’s traditional non-vegetarian cuisine.Delhi’s cuisine once comprised Jain, Bania and Muslim food. Then the British influenced the eating habits of the elite. More changes came after Partition, with the arrival of the Punjabis. Tandoori chicken, butter chicken, choley bhaturey and dal makhani, came to typify Delhi food. But even that has changed, Delhi is no longer about any one kind of food. 

The location of Girinagar is easily accessible by any vehicle like metro bus and tempo and you can travel the areas of Delhi easily ,you just note the points of departure and arrival in your diaries and love to create the mosaic of moments in each page.
