I just find it funny that stainless steel cutlery and dishes have been used widely in India and are so common that there was literally an article about how they are considered a poverty symbol. However, now in the west, it's become something chic and elevated. It's all over pinterest boards and brands are coming out with minimalistic stainless steel dishes.

Hey so

the last time I reblogged this post right before I got a great job, in a permanent work-from-home position, with benefits, retirement, and a salary literally 3x what I was making before, doing something I really like.

So you know.

This might be the real one, y’all.

1. Rani Chennama: Rani Chennamma was the Queen of Kittur, presently located in Karnataka. She was the first female ruler who defeated the British East India Company in 1824 in the first battle. She died as a prisoner of war after the second revolt.

2. Rani Ahilyabai Holkar: Queen Ahilyabai lost her husband, father-in-law, and son within a few decades, leading her to ascend the Maratha throne in 1767. She was a wise leader who relentlessly protected the dynasty and her kingdom by refuting multiple attacks.

Wielding a level of power and influence unprecedented for a Mughal empress, she was granted honours and privileges never enjoyed by any of her predecessors or successors, such as having coinage struck in her name. Her pre-eminence was in part made possible by her husband Jahangir's addiction to hunting, alcohol and opium and his frequent ill-health.

6. Razia Sultana: Razia Sultana became the first woman ruler of the Delhi Sultanate in the 13th century. Despite facing challenges due to her gender, she ruled effectively and tried to implement progressive reforms.

7. Maharani Tarabai Bhonsle: Known as 'Queen of the Marathas' by the Portuguese, Rani Tarabai was the queen regent of the Maratha Empire from 1700 until 1708. She is known for her fierce resistance against the Mughal invasion of Maratha territories after the death of her husband.

8. Rani Abbakka Chowta: Rani Abbakka Chowta belonged to the Chowta dynasty and ruled over Ullal. She ruled during the 16th century and was a fierce warrior who defeated the Portuguesecolonisers every time but died in a battle in 1570.

9. Rani Didda: Didda, also known as The Catherine of Kashmir, was the last ruler of Utpala dynasty from 980 CE to 1003 CE. She first acted as regent for her son and various grandsons from 958 CE to 980 CE, and from 980 CE as sole ruler and monarch. Most knowledge relating to her is obtained from the Rajatarangini, a work written by Kalhana in the twelfth century.

"I cherish the art of solitude, when a girl can revel in the serenity of free time, alone to immerse herself in books, connect with nature, or simply sit by the windowsill, basking in the beauty of living in the moment, with only her thoughts for company, and finding peace in the stillness."
