Food and Exercise

Here when you call for food delivery they will usually bring you liquids like daal and chutneys in bags instead of containers, since it's much cheaper. So that little bag is filled with coconut chutney. It is really fun to get the stuff out of those tiny bags because they use tiny rubber bands and it ends up spilling all over if you're impatient like some of us and try to cut it off. Unpacking our dinners is usually a good 5 minute process as a result (for Dan, since Pooja gives up).

This is a yummy dosa wrapped in paper. That's grease. A lot of grease. Hence the need for item in photo number 2.



This is a true "rickshaw." This is how our treadmill was delivered. Can you imagine biking all day long these heavy pieces of equipment? In 100+ degree heat? Almost all of our other furniture was delivered this way too, including the fridge, washing machine and TV.

We lucked out on the treadmill as our friend was getting rid of it anyway. It is going to save our lives and help Pooja train for another half marathon in October 2011 back home!
