They are stories of love that is never spoken out loud, but expressed through the act of pouring a second cup of chai without being asked. Every morning, her mother-in-law packs her tiffin

At 7:30 AM, the kitchen becomes a production line. Yesterday’s roti is transformed into chapati rolls . Leftover rice becomes lemon rice or curd rice . The mother is a magician of repurposing food.
