Now that it’s spring in the air with summer soon approaching, a lot of us still want to treat ourselves to savoury delights. However, aren’t we so over and done with heavy chocolate cakes, éclairs, New Year binges and sweets after Holi?

A new alternative dessert recipe is the light pumpkin New York Cheesecake that is sweeping the cake industry by storm.

The new lighter cheesecake recipes are making their way to the forefront of people’s minds and plans since its summer, and Easter is soon approaching as well.

One thing I am certain of - I’d rather make an entire decadent cheesecake of my favourite pumpkin flavour, for the price of just one slice at a restaurant. Our light pumpkin Cheesecake is not only a slice of heaven, but also the best of both worlds for pumpkin aficionados and cheesecake fans alike.

Most other cakes are rich, dense a d high. However, ours is creamy, light, smooth and satiny. Thin ginger snack crust! Oh!

The flavours of summer spices, pumpkin and cream cheese welded together like never before.

Moreover, this is a much healthier option for you fitness guys who don’t mind indulging once in a while J

Idea: the new condoms in town

I seriously can not understand why all these ad-gurus and critics are bashing up Idea mobile service's new ad. On one hand, people talk about various new arenas the ad world has been exploring, being more and more innovative. At the same time, they are bashing up a very innovative commercial, an idea of which only an ingenious could have thought of.

Though the "Idea" couldn't change the world, it at least changed the perception of advertisement scene in India. I know the earlier 3G and get Idea ads were a bit (okay, okay, a lot) annoying, but I feel that this new ad is a breakthrough and a kind of "Prayashchitta" for all those blunders. The last innovative ad in Idea's kitty was the one with the paperless world. The new ad follows suit in innovation. Another similarity in these two ads is that along with propagating the brand, also endorsed a social cause.

If only the new ad makes some slanting remarks towards people having sex is the reason why this ad is getting bashed up by people, then I've got only one thing to say, "Grow Up!"

Kalmadi-mentia

Bollywood has lent some of the classic tricks we Indians use to tackle some very difficult situations in day-to-day lives. The most popular trick in this bunch has recently been used by none other than Suresh Kalmadi, the Ghaplaa king of CWG fame. The trick is called, "MAIN KAHAN HOON?"

In this trick the protagonists says he or she has memory loss and can not remember things or people around them. After waking up from what appears to be a nice deep nap taken after the shoot was paused after lunch, the actor does not waste his time in fiddling with words, and uses the same phrase everyone has been using, since the dawn of the industry, "MAIN KAHAN HOON?".

Apparently Mr. Kalmadi is also pulling of the same scene, but with much more believability. Reports say that Mr. Kalmadi as been suffering from Dementia for last four to five years. And this may affect the trial of CWG scam. How? Well, For starters, Mr. Kalmadi may forget the details of the scams he has pulled off in recent past. Maybe the scams that people have been accusing Mr. Kalmadi of, will be proved to be mere situations where Mr. Kalmadi just forgot the calculations and approved the tenders blindly.

Or maybe this will take the trial to a fast track, maybe super-fast track, so the judgment will be delivered before Mr. Kalmadi forgets all the details. But this being India, the things may not take this turn after all. Maybe Mr. Kalmadi will get "Baizzat Bali"ed and live his remaining life like Amitabh Bachchan in the second half of BLACK. But for now, he has pulled the forgetfulness trick perfectly.

If things go on like this, it won’t be long before justice itself in India is forced to ask the question, "MAIN KAHAN HOON?"
