The I T Annapoorni - My Food Blogger Pal

Ever been in a situation when you get to meet an online person in real life and hit it off really well with them? Read on, to see how this modern age story came true for me.

So, as you all know, I am a content writer, author of this blog which largely presents life’s experiences and emotions in the way I see them. To transform my perception onto something the world can accept, I have to do my due diligence and homework before I present my work. To understand the whole world of Blogging requires patience, trust in one’s own craft and a love for the larger good. Blogging is not just about presenting one’s own work so that the world can see you. It’s our very own personal nest in the online jungle .It is a reflection of ourselves, our naked thoughts driven by our talent in a social space. So, I had been going through many blogs across different genres one of them being the http://www.happietrio.com  owned by a spirited lady Sharmila.

The HappieTrio Blog

Read on to see what caught my eye and how destiny had us to meet and exchange pleasantries Thanks to the boom of the Instagram application everyone has taken to food photography and expressing their photos with attractive captions and sharing their experiences in reward for the likes, trolls and comments they get from their followers. This blog, presented dishes across the board in its natural form giving it a next door connect which few bloggers manage to do. Sharmila’s blog is not one of those exuberant eye dazzling food porn blogs. If you are into your initial days of marriage or cooking expeditions and you are looking for recipes with supportive photographs, recipes that make your taste buds dance to the flavours but yet stand out  as simple and easy to comprehend recipes, this is one of the best ones out there. So much so, for a cooking virgin such as myself, even I felt confident that the kitchen work is not rocket science but rather a combination of passion, knowledge, interest and selflessness. 

The blog is deftly designed, with easy navigations and pictures that make eyes pop out – thanks to the camera and the wise choice of resources by the author Sharmila.The recipes are described in simple language and the details are honestly elaborated. The USP of the blog is, she has managed to present her work in such a way that the dishes appear all magical and attractive yet so easily achievable. Anyone looking out for a jumpstart into cooking their hearts out but don’t have time for aimlessly scrolling across youtube feed or consulting people about their recipes, you will not be disappointed when you hit this URL. We are all very protective of our work, our gifts. When you ask someone for a recipe of a dish that worked for them, few have the heart to share their secret without ignoring the details. Sharmila’s blog engages any person with an interest to marry the cutlery with some good delicious food. She has a smorgasbord of recipes for different occasions, festivals, cutting across spices and desserts and starters and soups and main courses with equal finesse.  

Sharmila – The person

The IT Annapoorni, Sharmila is equally charismatic like her blog. Like her, I am into the IT industry and we shift between organizations as we grow in our career. I joined in one of the Big 4 companies last year and guess who was my project partner? You must have figured out. ! Sharmila is one of the lead resources in my team which happens to be my 3^rd project in this Organization. I was mildly star struck as I confessed to her, how well her blog educated me on the art of blogging and how much I appreciated her work. At first, the wise owl in her thought I was just smooth talking her but, a few months into this project we have both established a camaraderie that has sealed our bond across platforms. She now believes the fan boy in me !  Much like her blog, she happens to be the honest, warm person that does the altruistic work in the http://www.happietrio.com . She often delights the team with her sudden snacks which she prepares, burning the midnight oil even as get busy in our project commitments. I got to know the amount of effort and work that goes into this blog. 

In our conversations, I could see the amount of effort, time she allocates. Apart from cooking her dainty dishes, she invests her time that is left outside her personal life (she is a happily married woman with 2 pretty princesses) in prepping the content for her recipe, carefully choosing her words so that the reader can imbibe the recipe easily and also in collaging all her photos that she shoots in one of those fancy NIKON cameras. She literally has not attached a voice recording on the blog, but in my personal view, I can pretty much see the whole of Sharmila on the blog, which manages to encapsulate her warmth, generous heart, knack for cooking apart from her photography and content skills. The blog being smartly named as HappieTrio blesses the reader with such good content and learning experience so much so that Sharmila comes off as a modern age strong willed , good hearted IT Annapoorni she is. 

As the prayer goes, Thank god for such delicious food and Bless the hands that prepared it.
