Strange but true


Its amazing when certain totally not-at-all-possible, generally-for discussions kind of things, turn into a reality.

Yeah, really,true....
When we were @ college, we used to live on Top Ramen noodles. The food in the hostel was bad and though we finished our dinner by 8 (mess closes by 8), we used to get a Top Ramen, just in case types, and finally cook and eat that late in the night.
And if the food in the mess is really really gross, we always had our Top Ramen to fall back on.
Back then, we used to think that once we have our own kids, we might aswell tell them that maggie/top ramen is our staple food. It used to be the joke of our college times.

Little did we know that it could actually turn into a reality.

Today, my not-even-two-years-old daughter, is all "fida" about this exquisite dish called maggie.
She gets up early in the morning and says...Amma...maggie pettamma (Give me maggie)
She doesn't eat anything for the whole day, whatever you cook and give and bribe. Don't worry we have a saviour in the form of maggie..

Was what I ate for 4 years of my life so very huge, that it literally was carried to the genes and came back to haunt me in the form of my daughter????
Does it really work that way??
