" #India last week suspended exports of non-basmati varieties of #rice after heavy #monsoon rainfall damaged newly planted crops due to be harvested in winter. With rice retail prices up 3 per cent in the past month and 11.5 per cent over the past year, the government hopes to quell food #inflation by reserving more grain for the domestic market."

"The significant increase in #tomato prices in #India, surpassing 400 per cent, can be linked to crop failure induced by extremely high temperatures and heavy #rainfall.

#ClimateChange-related #ExtremeWeather events are a significant contributing factor to the present scarcity of #tomatoes."

No matter what you are, you are enough

I suggest that we watch the Indian movie The Broken Table. This compact masterpiece has a subtle and a profund message which left a lasting impression in my mind within a duration of 23 minutes and fifty two seconds. I do not want to reveal the details. Let the viewer discover the healing perspectives of our emotional dilemmas in this sensitive movie.

The movie has excellent English subtitles and, hence, language should not be a barrier. Since the film touches on the depths of the universal human experience, overcoming linguistic and cultural limitations, I am confident that it will appeal to the international audience.

We wanted to make something good tonight so we made Gatte Ki Subzi together ❤️

A Rajasthani dish made of besan dumplings in yogurt sauce, it is one of our favorite dishes.

We are thinking about doing something more elaborate like this every Thursday evening as a way to start the weekend a bit early (since we both have WFH on Fridays 😊).
