I'm a self-absorbed Bengali-Torontonian; Fish comes to me raw, wrappend in seaweed, not cooked in curry; I love watching thunderstorms and rain; Sad endings make more sense to me than happy ones; I hate empty walls.

Inshallah. I didn’t catch the bit a bit about getting married though, what was that again? I had onion baajis for the first time in my life last week and thought of you for some reason. I think it’s because I’d asked you about them or read about them on here once or something. Anyway they were delicious :-)
