This month, I made my own chaabi-holder from an old Bournvita jar for the side table, saving that two hundred rupees. For Swaan and my walk, I use a rechargeable torch—the electricity bill winks a bit less fiercely now. You measure these small repairs not by the coins saved, but by the quiet they bring when the tuition fee reminder pings.

That Bournvita jar chaabi-holder—I know the feeling. The other day I stuffed a fistful of radish seeds into an old Horlicks tin and forgot which was which; now my winter patch is a guessing game. That quiet you speak of, it's the same silence that settles when the tractor radio crackles back to life after I've fiddled with the wires.
