This pandemic is making us pay heavy on mental health on one hand, but at the same time, this has helped us to increase the closeness within the family like never before. So many talks, so many lost memories, so many emotions are shared at the dining table now, which we had lost completely in our busy schedules when everything was 'normal'.

'Amra' or hog plum is one of our family's favorites in generations. I have heard how it is much loved in both my father's and mother's families since their childhood. I have seen a hog plum tree in my maternal grandparents' home in the courtyard. My mom's grandpa planted it because of his love for this particular fruit and it still gives fruits.

So, after the 1st lockdown when we got a few 'Amra', ma asked me to prepare this childhood memory of hers. Her 'Pishima' (her aunt, I used to call her 'Pullu') used to prepare this recipe on special days. She became a widow when she was only 9 years old and since then, she came back to stay with her own family. She was a very kind-hearted, lovable, brave lady and my mom's favorite.

I never had a chance of having this recipe prepared by her, but my 'Dida' (maternal Grandma) used to prepare this. After preparing, when I gave ma to taste it, Ma was so overjoyed that this recipe exactly tasted like she used to have in her childhood.

## Certain things can never be changed, like this pandemic but we still need to find reasons to be happy; maybe through sharing some quality time with ourselves or with family.
