Etta behind my etta
The days I decide not to cook we go to this small Malayali mess where we get some nice Malabar biryanis. Nowadays we try to avoid the big restaurants so that once in a while when we go out for a date, we feel like it's a date night rather than just any of the non cooking days.
While we wait for our food to arrive, I get this quick shot of this etta indulged in his Malayalam newspaper while my etta is busy sipping Sprite. (I hate when he drinks those sugary, good for nothing drinks but more on that later) Apparently in Malayalam, brother and husband both are called "chetta/etta" hence the title. I always found it very amusing and after going deep into the topic, I found it is the term used for elderly and sounds cute as well as respectful.
