Punjabi in Paris – Groundwork and Gruntwork
<This is Part Three of the Punjabi in Paris series. Read the first two, too! Part 1 and Part 2 may be found, you guessed it right, congratulations!, by clicking on the words Part 1 and Part 2. Not these ones, the ones earlier in the sentence, the ones that…Continue reading→
Shoe woe
So I went shoe shopping the other day. Ladies, do not attempt to whine to me about the problems you have shopping for shoes. In every store about 85% of shoes displayed and stocked were women’s shoes. They came in flats, heels of varying heights, wedges, platforms. They came in…Continue reading→

At Starbucks
It’s a confusing world here. I’m sitting at a long table facing the baristas. Three out of four are pretty, a pretty good percentage. I wonder how any one gets any work done at any of these places. There’s the conversations around me. The tall man on my right is…Continue reading→
