Mom had soaked veggies in two bowls filled with water and baking soda to give the veggies a bath. Thanks to google she had read that this method removed the pesticides loaded in the veggies. Rishi walked into the kitchen and looking at the two bowls full of veggies was awestruck. He asked mom in a surprised and confused tone,
Rishi: Mama, why have you soaked so many veggies in water?
Mom: I wanted to wash them Rishi.
Rishi: Thank God , I thought you were going to cook them all today.
Mom thought Rishi was very much concerned about her.
Mom: Oh no, were you worried I would trouble myself by cooking so many veggies in one day?
Rishi: No, no mama, I thought you were going to cook them all in one day and make me eat today itself.
Mom :mmmmgrhhhh If you don't want veggies why don't you go to the supermarket and get some shrimp.?
Shrimp being Rishi's favourite , he jumped into action immediately. He offered to go to the shop . Mom asked him to get bananas and avacado along with the shrimp.
Rishi went to the shop and came back with two bags.
Rishi: Mama, look at the shrimp and tell me how good they are!
(Thanks to the five phone calls he made from the shop during the process of selecting the shrimp)
Mom looked at the shrimp and they looked fresh and inviting.

Rishi: Mama, I used up all my SKILLS to select the right shrimps.
Mom: Thats good Rishi.
While sorting out the things from the shop mom looked at the bananas and the avacado. They were fresh and green but hard as stones. They won't ripen for the next three days. She had asked him to buy them for dinner.

Mom: Rishi, i think you used up all your SKILLS to buy the shrimp and had nothing left when you picked up the bananas and avacado.
Rishi: mmmmm mama, you were the one who asked me to buy fresh fruits and veggies.
Mom: Wish you had some skills left while you picked up the bananas and the avacado.
Mom suddenly remembered the economics exam that Rishi had the next day. She thought , what if he comes and tells her after the exam that he had used up all his skills while picking the right the shrimp and had none to use while writing the economics paper!! She wont be surprised to hear such an answer from Rishi.
She cooked the prawn and gave it to him. There was pin drop silence while Rishi was having his dinner.
Mom: Rishi, how is the shrimp?
Rishi: mmmmm mama, "I AM EATING IT IN PEACE"!
These words spoke for the SKILLS used by both MOM AND RISHI........
