when . . . you arrange for someone to pick up your vehicle just in case you join the person who asked you for a ride to the airport!

when you tell the owner of an Indian restaurant how much you like the food and he says with a big smile:
"South Indian food! We are #1!"

1. when you can't use the last two Indian soaps because you want to hold them close to your nose and smell them (I put them in my towels instead....)

2. when you can't finish the bottle of moisturizer you bought in India because the smell reminds you of when and where you bought it (I put some on today...)

Find leftover paludrine in your wallet (as I did today).

That is really funny. I have an old shampoo bottle, and moisturizer that I don't want to throw out. I just sniff them every now and then. I had been known to sneak into the Body Shop to sniff the body wash that I brought to India with me in 2000. Then they took it off the market. I probably scared them!
