Achamma and Amma fed me till I burst
A short story where food becomes the life of a home and the bond that holds a family together. The kitchen, a sanctuary of warmth and wisdom, is brought to life by the ladies who inhabit it—with their spices, stories (and sass). They chop, stir, and season, infusing every dish with love, laughter, and a touch of unspoken sacrifice. Amidst the comfort they create, their efforts often go unnoticed, their labour taken for granted. This story highlights how their culinary love silently nurtures families.
