Blood Donation Camp

Blood is a bodily fluid in humans that delivers necessary substances such as nutrients and oxygen to the cells and transports metabolic waste products away from those same cells in short a major part or may be fluid of the body.

A blood donation truly is a “gift of life” that a healthy individual can give to others in their community who are sick or injured. In an hour’s time, a person can donate one unit of blood that can be separated into four individual components that could help save multiple lives.

From one unit of blood, red blood cells can be extracted for use in trauma or surgical patients. Plasma, the liquid part of blood, is administered to patients with clotting problems. The third component of blood, platelets, clot the blood when cuts or other open wounds occur, and are often used in cancer and transplant patients. Cryoprecipitated anti-hemophilic factor (AHF) is also used for clotting factors.

Every seconds someone in the hospital world wide needs blood.More than a million blood donations are needed every day.The blood type most often requested by hospitals is Type O being a universal blood group. More than a million new people are diagnosed with cancer each year. Many of them will need blood, sometimes daily, during their chemotherapy treatment.

It only takes about an hour out of your busy schedule and it may save a life. Donating blood may not only benefit the person who received the blood cells but may also improve the health of the donor.

What are the potential health benefits of donating blood?

While the most obvious health benefit of donating blood is the wonderful feeling derived from giving something vital to someone who needs it, the benefits of donating blood may extend far beyond this to having a positive impact on the donor's health.
 A healthy person can donate blood four times a year with a minimum of 3 months’ gap between each blood donation. There are also certain steeps one should follow for donating blood.

On occasion of the hotel's first Anniversary it was decided to have a blood donation camp organised at the hotel with the help of Jeevan Jyoti Blood Bank & Components.

I decided to help some one by donating blood and so did Monu.


The process for donating blood is like wise every blood donor is given a mini-physical, checking temperature, blood pressure, pulse and haemoglobin to ensure it is safe to give blood.



Whole blood donation process only takes approximately 45 to 60 minutes.

It hardly pains but the only problem with me is the fear for the syringe which makes me scared all the more




With Monu it wasn't the same she was all the more smiling, when the syringe was inserted


But once its done I am all fine I hope this fear for syringe goes out of me some day



After we were done donating the blood we were given some refreshments.

 Happy Blood Donation!

Burgs a Gourmet Goodness

I remember we were on the Veera desai  road - Mumbai on our way back home, but I was too hungry and so was Ninad, so he asked me to go to burgs the famous burger joint.
I had to try this as in Nagpur we don't have a good burger joint and apart from that

I have had heard a lot about burgs before from Ninad, So my exception was high on it :)

There are not many who specialize in selling burgers like Burgs. The variety of burgers offered at Burgs like Teriyaki Chicken, burdy num num and may more are just deliciously mouth watering  They even have  Indian flavors on their menu and which adds a new dimension to it.

The Burgs in Mumbai & Pune is a gourmet burger joint which is not only a food joint but also a perfect hangout destination and you can spend time with your friends and loved once for hours and hours.

The Interior and everything looked good to me from the outside




And it was great inside as well, I pretty much liked the White & yellow combination interior with the yellowish lighting and the burger lamp on the top was the best part of it.



Their wall had the like us on Facebook &  follow us Twitter poster, as you can see in the picture.



People were enjoying their burger and we were waiting for ours....


My Super Model



After 5 Min he started waiting, as he actually was very hungry cause before coming to this place I asked him to hunt for few other options finally we landed here :p






Thinking when will he get to eat his yummy burger..........




Me Smiling looking at him :p


Finally we got our order without waiting much




Right side is mine doesn't it look yummy oh! I couldn't just wait to have a bite of it




Ninad  had

Birdy Num Num - Rs.169
[Description: A chicken patty with a centre of gooey cheddar cheese, fried crisp; topped with ketchup.
It's a heart warmer]


I had

Teriyaki Chicken Burger - Rs. 169
[Description: Teriyaki glazed chicken breast, grilled to perfection. Topped with a delicately spiced green onion aioli to give your burger flavours of the orient]




I just loved my burger as it was juicy and all rich with the sauce.



They have got a verity of sides and sauces in their menu which you can order for out of which one is the cheese sauce which i really loved and is a must try and they are not too expensive as well for me the experience at burgs was a value for money.



Ratings:-

Interior:- was a 8 out of 10 as there was few thing missing like when we entered there was no music playing which is a big turn off for me at-list, but the white and yellow combi takes my heart, for me a lounge sitting was missing cause a burger is like a luxury food and it can be enjoyed more if they had a nice lounge sittings.

Staff:- 7 out of 10 as they were busy chatting with each other and they were all very casual and me being from the hospitality background cannot really digest it.

Services:- 10 on 10 as we were delivered the order really fast and that was the best thing.

Taste:- 9 on 10 there is a little space of improvement other wise it was all good and tasty for me and must visit again.


Menu:- 10 on 10 very pocket friendly and has a good verity loved it.


Amazing thing for the Mumbaiyas is they deliver your burger on call as well


You can also place an order from Food Panda which a famous on-line food ordering site.

Old is gold

Old is Gold!!!
It is an old saying but goes so well with all your old memories which you preserve somewhere
in your heart and sometimes in the pictures too as I have did.
I got all my favorite old pictures scanned which were taken in the late 80’s.
During that time digital camera were not at all affordable and were rear to find too,
Mom & dad got most of there pictures clicked at the old style studios where they use to get
the pictures almost after two to three days time as the process of developing the pictures use
to take lot of time it wasn't at all like it is today, you get your pictures printed in minutes after it
is clicked as it is all digital now.

So lets begin the tour to my little old treasure.

That’s my super hero my darling dad when he just graduated, can you see that big collars which are now again trading as well as the geek glasses.



That’s my super stare Mom when she just graduated.





This picture is made to order by my dad to gift my mom I really don't know what was the occasion but love birds really don't require an occasion to gift each other is what I feel ;)
This is a little worn as it’s a very old picture which mom had treasured in her diary.





That’s the bride to be, my mom looks so different in each picture





World's most beautiful and lovely couple Mr. & Mrs. Das and my adorable parents 
This is there first picture ever together right after marriage.





Now this is their first colour picture together





That’s my elder sister when she was two and a half years (and I was on my way ;p) when this picture was clicked at a studio, right after getting out of the cinema hall (There were no multiplexes at that time :p)




Here I come, that’s my first picture ever and that’s my first birthday gift, this picture is clicked on my first birthday :)






That’s the first picture clicked by our first own camera.
We had a Canon film camera and that’s me holding the camera pouch.




Oh! This one is my all time favorite picture, that’s me holding a ‘Mechanical Robot’ gifted to me by dad which he brought from Mumbai.




Now that’s me and my sis together. This picture is clicked at a studio.




Mom dad after they decorated the house, as it was my elder sister's birthday, you can see the decoration in the picture.




These pictures are clicked on mom dad’s anniversary day and it is clicked at a studio because we all went for dinner together and then we went to the studio for getting our pictures clicked and mostly on mom dad’s anniversary day we use to go to the studio for getting our pictures clicked as there use to be the camera man who had lights and other set-up  so we use to get good pictures.
