Britannia GoodDay Chunkies Funky Cake

#ChefsWithChunkies 

Aamen loves Britannia Chunkies is an understatement. Aamen loves and lives to eat Britannia GoodDay Chunkies every day. Most of the dabbas ( Food Boxes ) in our home are choc-a-bloc with boxes of Britannia GodDay Chunkies. Chunkies in the morning with glassful of milk, Chunkies in the school-tiffin , Chunkies with coffee in the evening is Aamen's Chunkilicious  eatinerary ( i.e. itinerary )  of any day.




That day, we decided to give a Funky surprise to Aamen by baking a novel Chunkies Funky cake, using Britannia GoodDay Chunkies as the main ingredient. You won't believe me , If I told you that Aamen's eyes twinkled Big Star and his hair spiked on it's own  ( OK the later is just a JOKE ) when he saw and tasted the Chunky Funky Cake .

Give me RED

                When Aamen was a little boy , he loved RED, RED and RED 



         He always got attracted to anything and everything , colored Red.





We pacified him with Red Apple, whenever he cried and his face turned Red.
He allowed us to click his photographs only and only when he was wearing RED.






Aamen's Red-mania continued even after joining a play-group, named Red-Riding-Hood

Aamen's Aditai

Aamen's Aditai

Aamen being the youngest child in the family , naturally he is pampered to the fullest and faultiest by us all. Earlier it was Aditi , my niece who was pampered the most .

Adi used to and still does pamper Aamen , but now-a-days her spirit has dampened due to Aamen's infinite mischievousness . Aamen's behavior in public places , especially somewhere like STARBUCKS infuriates Adi like anything.





Aamen does behave like a model child , when Aditai makes her anger known. He knows his limit and up to how much he can be tolerated by Adi. On Aditai's birthday , he makes her feel royal by being an obedient child.










Shah Rukh Khan in Making

Aamen's favorite actor is Shah Rukh Khan .  His friends and our ( my and my husband's ) families say that he does resemble SRK





Aamen sometimes wishes to be as popular as SRK , sometimes he wants to be as famous as Chef Vikas Khanna . My Mannat is that he studies well .

D.N.A. , the newspaper had selected Aamen for their Junior Journalist fellowship , where he reached the final round. He wrote such a comprehensive essay on " Why I want to be a journalist ". He summarized the essay with " and the last but not the least reason , I want to be a journalist is , I can get an opportunity to interview the King Khan."  




Mamma thinks  Aamen looks , dances , talks ( without stutter ) , imitates much better than SRK . I want Aamen's Idol to be Suhana SRK rather than her dad, cause she has won HINDUSTAN TIMES  scholarship for her writing skill.






I.I.T. Powai for Aamen

Aamen's Style

Aamen loves to play . So ? What's new ? . 
Oops ! I know all children love to play but Aamen is just too much.

His first priority is Play , second is Play, third and the last priority is Play , Play and Play .... all the way.







I just wish , he had been at least 99.99% interested in studies too.
 That will guarantee his admission to I.I.T. Mumbai , Powai .   Why Powai ? Cause his Papa's office is in Powai. Papa can drop him and pick him up while to and from office.

 I made my wish known to Aamen and see how he reacted ....

World Environment Day Collage

World Environment Day Collage

Aamen made a simple , down-to-Earth ... literally ' World Environment Day ' collage.

I wish he had taken more efforts to make it a bit better , artistically.





The best thing about Aamen's 'World Environment Day' collage is that , he has reused / recycled a STARBUCKS  carry-bag to make it.

The Starbucks carry-bag looked like this at The Starbucks-Oberoi Mall , Goregaon.
