Banana bread is a type of bread that is made with mashed fully ripe bananas. It is often a moist, sweet, cake-like quick bread; however, there are some banana bread recipes that are traditional-style yeast breads.

If you have spent nights agonizing about having to take your hand out of the blanket to turn the page of the book you are reading, and resent having to stick half of the other hand out in order to hold the book, this is one thing that will turn you into a Believer.

Christmas is all about happiness. I feel happy when I listen to some awesome music. So here I am sharing with you the list of my favourite Christmas Songs:

It is Christmas tomorrow. It is the time to get those gorgeous trees up with all the lightings that spread the love into the air. What a joyous festival, Christmas, I tell you! Just the thought of Christmas puts me at ease. Those scrumptious fruit cakes and elaborate dinner parties, the bright-shiny-big star hanging outside people’s doors and the sight of that Christmas tree upon walking into someone’s home – how much I love Christmas!

While Christmas was, at one point of time, about the birth of Christ, it has now changed into something completely different. The twentieth century marked the change in the celebration of Christmas which has now become a mixture of all the cultures. This gave rise to a new business venture: Christmas!

Christmas time always means gifts, tons and tons of them from friends and family.The downside is that you can’t just take the presents and walk away, you’ve got to give them back because that’s what Christmas is about: giving and receiving.

What kind of madness has been put on display outside the Rashtrapati Bhawan in Delhi?The Delhi police is acting like hired goons of the party in power.Tear gas shells and water cannons are being unleashed on thousands of young protesters.

A few days ago, I saw some parents in Norway being held for mishandling their children because the child had peed in his pants. I also read an article where a few youngsters killed three members of a family to steal money, and later, the teenage son confessed to being a partner in crime himself to make things equal with his kin. And then I read another newspaper article of honour killing by a brother who cut his sisters throat for marrying her lover.

The reform policy was passed a few days into the month of September. It’s now the second week of December and the issue of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) particularly in the field of retail continues to be rehashed and subsequently discussed by the media.Before the policy came into place, Manmohan Singh – le beloved PM – was being termed as ineffectual and useless on a wide and popular note. Then, he decided to give the green light to direct investment from foreign investors in various fields like retail, aviation, broadcast and telecom, etc. Actually, in an area like retail, FDI has always been there, except now foreign multi-brand retail giants like Wal-Mart, Tesco and Carrefour can now have major shares and front-end benefits.

Firstly, we need to know that it is a cyclic calendar. The Long Count, a linear calendar, kept time in units of roughly 20. Its smallest unit was a uinal (20 days). 18 unials made a tun (360 days), 20 tuns a k’atun (7,200 days) and 20 k’atuns made up a b’ak’tun (144,000 days), which was a period of 394 years.
