Mango girl

Some of you might remember my rant some time ago about Navya's dislike/hatred for mangoes even though she is a big fan of the 'bina guthali waala aam'. Few weeks ago, all that changed and now she is almost on a 'a mango a day' routine. And I didn't even have to listen to Himeshhh.

But something out of the ordinary did happen on the day she started eating mangoes. That was the day JR and I won our first quiz together in a long time. We had accepted the fact that we are the world-champions in coming second in quizzes after going through umpteen quizzes without any success (I remember only one PICT quiz which we won together) and we had done well/better with other partners. Now, JR and I have actually put together a string of three consecutive wins, including one in a Niranjan SS quiz (SS = Stockholm Syndrome). Now we have decided to participate in a quiz in Mumbai on Saturday and our past experience has been, well, not so nice. As JR put it - "It is a good place to end our winning streak so that we can start all over again from the next quiz :-)" I agree with JR.

But why am I writing about this in a post which should be all about Mangoes and Navya? This actually struck me after I started writing this post. if Navya's eating mangoes has anything to do with me and JR winning/losing quizzes together and if I see any change in Navya's eating habits after the quiz (which we, in all probability, may not win), then History will soon become History. Mark my words.

The timing may be such that we may not be able to make it to the quiz. I will keep you posted - on the quiz and on the mangoes front as well.
