I dragged myself home after a long day. I am tired, and all I wanted was something to eat and sleep. I stood in the kitchen, staring at the empty dishes, too tired to cook but not wanting to order food. I picked up my phone, scrolled through the delivery apps, but nothing felt either comforting or healthy. Thinking of the ready mix packets I have seen earlier at the store and wished that I bought them.

They seemed to hold the answer to all my problems, but then I also remembered how unhealthy they probably are with long shelf lives, full of preservatives and artificial ingredients. I sighed, thinking of how things used to be when Amma was around. I would walk in after a long day, just to have fresh and warm food waiting for me. I miss those days. I miss her food. And, I miss her.

With all these thoughts, I started to cook something simple. I longed for Amma, I also longed for comforting food at convenience.

This story isn’t just mine. It is the story of those rushing through busy mornings, craving something healthy. It is the story of those who yearn for the comfort of a homemade meal after a long work week. It is the story of people who stay far away from home to pursue their dreams. It is also the story of a tired mother longing for a break yet keen on feeding her children healthy. This is a story of everyone who runs against time and exhaustion, craving a warm, comforting meal.
