I go nuts over him !!!

It all started as puppy love.
I met him on the days when I walked home from school. He didn’t mind joining me while my friends were there. They too loved his company you see. Highly energetic young lad, yet too simple and humble for his totally appealing, irresistible nature. He had a pale brown skin tone and innocent looks, every time I sneaked a look at him and my heart skipped a beat.

Those days were so much fun that, for all the silly jokes we made,he couldn’t stop cracking himself and we all sang aloud “ we will, we will Rock you!” :whistleI can’t believe how much of a Goober he was!

He just lived down my streets, so showed up at all places wherever I went. Parks, beaches, schools, bus stops, almost everywhere that he soon grabbed the attention of many. I did not like it when few mean people called him ‘Roadside Romeo’ and accused him of being noisy. Poor guy he was very good at heart.

He’s a sweet- talkin’, sugar coated candy man and many times I savored his other side as well.
As years rolled by, our bond became stronger and healthier. BUT..BUT..things did not happen the way he wanted to..all my fault. I couldn’t say no, when a good looking young man just swept me off my feet that I fell head over heels in love for him and ended up marrying him. Promise! I did not ditch him completely. shakehead

My sinful (?) confession was out during our honeymoon time. He too teased me if I was just “Kadala potufying” (Frying Groundnuts)??? See, that was unwarranted and unsolicited. I was not ready to forgive him at all for such a careless statement. How dare he could make fun of his dear wife’s love for PEANUTS??? . hmm..Yea It's such a humble Goober,I simply can’t resist those nutties.

Leave alone the tiff I had with my husband then, I have settled the scores many times after that.
But a part of me still aches, when these petty pity peanuts are mocked and called names. “IF YOU PAY PEANUTS, YOU GET MONKEYS”. Does that mean it’s just the monkeys who eat peanuts? And the CEO’s eat peanut butterrrr eh??? thinkingsmiley
What did these poor peanuts do, to be used for the word ‘flirting’??? “kadala podurathu” (frying groundnuts). The justification that my DH gives is, just like the roadside groundnut selling vendors who make the strange noise in the pretext of frying them, some guys and gals just talk on and on with no context at all, but to simply draw some attention it seems.
Wow what a Nut-O-logy?

Wait, How come he knew so much of “Kadala podurathu”??? emmm..emm..waitingsmiley

LESSONS LEARNT: -
-----------------

1. Humble, meek and docile ones are often taken for granted, mocked and ridiculed.
2. Stop messing up with your wife, else you’re inviting troubles. notdonesmiley
3. PEANUTS are healthy, so heartily indulge…

Take a chill pill..I did not cheat anyone.
I tried my hand on subtle satirical humor on peanuts being used in slang's and sayings. Off course my love for it as well.
Sorry if it didn't get through. Will try it better next time..

Thanks Akila for the lavish praise. It means a lot to me.
I suffer from incurable sweet tooth, so chikki's are treats for my palate. But still love the salt n spice peanuts.
