Au Revoir



Sorry for the abrupt post dear folks.
And the abrupt good bye.

I may not post again in the near future.
I do hope to be back someday ... but am hoping against hope.

So many things left unsaid.
So many things left unshared.
So many thanks not said.

Before I disappear I want to thank everybody who has one time or the other mentioned Kichu Khon and me on their blogs.
Who have trusted me and my recipes and tried them.
And have written warm and glowing words about them, me and my blog.

I do not want any one of you to worry unnecessarily ... so am explaining that it is not due to any bad comments or anything else that am stopping.
The reasons are purely personal.

Take care dear friends.
This blog has been heaven to me ... letting me be myself.

And all of you have been life to me ... each one a breath of pure air.
Loving me, accepting me, allowing me to be myself.

I'll miss everyone of you and your wonderful spaces and hearts.

Do take care.
Life can be very untrue to us.
I just wish all of you love and happiness.

Warm hugs
Sharmila

  1. Sharmila,
    It feels bad to know that you will not be around blogosphere, but you must definitely be having your reasons to say goodbye.You sounded kind of sad... I pretty much agree when you say life can be untrue at times.Whatever it may be,take care and hope to see you back soon:)

  10. Sharmila please tell me this is not true. When I first read the post my instant thought was, is it 1st April today? But its not and this is shocking! You sounded very sad and I won't ask all those questions that I want to. You are the first one who commented on my blog and yours is one of those blogs that I love to go back to almost every day. I looked forward to your beautiful writings, recipes, pictures and that part of your life, which shows what a wonderful human being you are. Knowing you is a joy Sharmila and you meant a lot to me...seriously. I dont know how to say that I will miss you a lot. Just the thought of not having you around makes my day blue and making me have a lump in my throat.

    Whatever it is dear Sharmila I believe you will come out of it as a winner...stronger and courageous. Love you always and try to come back soon.

  16. Dear Sharmila
    I understand the situation...
    I am a selfish person ...so I am praying to God so that you recover fast and post more recipes and I learn many dishes ( even if at old age, because learning process is over at death only)
    Take care ...lots of love ..

  36. Dear Sharmila, I've followed your blog for sometime and have come to see you as a friend, one I've never met. I was really shocked and saddened at the thought that there will no longer be new Kichu Khon posts. I hope everything goes well in your life and you get your hearts desire. Thanks for all your thoughts and recipes. Take care.

  37. I came back to your blog after quite some time today and was shocked to see your good bye note! You do seem to be passing through a tough time in life. Whatever the reason is, I pray to the Almighty that He gives you strength to surpass all. Take care and hope to see you back to blogging soon. Don't forget to send a note to let me know when you are back! Take care.
