The Diary Game | 12-04-2025 | Everyone chop vegetables to cook Panchan.(Baishakh special)

Greetings,

Hope you all are well. I am new to this platform and I am sharing my another post

This morning I woke up fresh and went to make breakfast. At that time my husband said let's buy fish and meat from the local market today. We all went to our village house to celebrate Eid. When we came from our village house, we didn't have fish or meat. My husband goes to buy meat on holidays. While walking with my husband, we went to the local market (Firingi Bazar) nearby. Although I don't go to the market much, sometimes I go to the market to buy some vegetables.After bringing the fish and meat home, I have a light breakfast. Since I left without preparing breakfast before going to the market. So, I did not get the breakfast ready. For a quick breakfast, I think the easiest solution is oats and dates. Just soak the oats in lukewarm water and mix two dates and your breakfast is complete. I boiled the children's milk, Horlicks and eggs for breakfast in the morning.

After finishing breakfast, I started preparing the fish and meat. As easy as it is to go to the market, preparing the fish and meat and storing it in the refrigerator is even more difficult. Although I had cut the fish from the market, it still took me a long time to wash and clean them. I kept some fish for cooking and kept the rest in the refrigerator. After finishing cooking, I performed ablution and came back to offer Zuhr prayers. After offering Zuhr prayers, I went to rest for a while.

When I woke up in the afternoon, I saw that it was time to offer the Asr prayer. I performed ablution and offered the Asr prayer. After offering the prayer, I went to the roof every day to water the plants. Like every other day, I went to the roof to water the plants. A sixth-floor sister called me into her room. The special panchan they cook on the occasion of the New Year was being prepared. I sat for a while and watched the preparations. On the occasion of the Bengali New Year, followers of the traditional religion cook a special type of panchan/ghant.

I sat down to study with my son in the evening. After teaching for a while, Didi from the sixth floor called me. She said that the vegetables that were brought for cooking pachon were to be chopped. Since many types of vegetables are used for cooking pachon, everyone in the building went to help Didi in chopping those vegetables. At the same time, the vegetables were chopped while talking to everyone. Since Didi cooks pachon in a large quantity, it became difficult for her to do all the work alone. I finished chopping the vegetables, completed dinner at home, and went to sleep. Hoping for another new day.
