THE GULABJAMUN THEORY

Here I will be telling you about some situations, facts, dilemmas and treachery that revolves around a bowl full of Gulabjamuns lying unawares in a kitchen.

1. More are the number of Gulabjamuns in the bowl, lesser is the attention they attract on disappearance of a few of them.
2. More are the number of family members in your house, easier it is to gulp down a couple of Gulabjamuns on every visit to the kitchen. Doubt of thievery will be equally shared among all the members.
3. Out of the dough your mother has prepared for making Gulabjamuns, if you have made atleast one dough ball, you can officially claim having made the whole thing single handed.
4. It is always worth waking up till late in the night as long as Gulabjamuns are still not extinct. You will have many days to sleep on time.
5. Always eat the biggest and most heavenly looking Gulabjamun first. Saving it for later means losing it in the hands of another drooling human.
6. Greed for a Gulabjamun is not greed. It is need. Bare insatiable necessity.
7. A bowl of Gulabjamun is an open challenge of rivalry. Do not give in to compassionate emotions at anyone’s plight or to any puppy faces.
8. Every good thing in the world comes to an end. Never get too attached with the savoury flavours. Else you are headed to despair with the speed proportionate to your craving for Gulabjamuns.
9. Don’t be too detached with them either. It is illegal.
10. The last Gulabjamun in the bowl is most delicious of all. Be prepared with hockey sticks, swords, frying pans, anything readily available, to eliminate competition.

PS: In the loving memory of all those Gulabjamuns that were not eaten by me!
