ABOUT ME

THE WORLD IS YOUR RUNWAY! In conversation with the talented Zahra Khan

» Tell us three things we don’t know about you.

Well, • I am a ‘gym freak’ once i held a plank for 4 minutes straight.

• I am a big time bathroom singer.

• I am half sri-lankan. » Did you always want to be a model?

Yes! When i was a little girl, i used to watch Ftv (fashion tv) and i had always secretly wished to be a model one day. » What are the 5 essential things you carry in your bag?

I always make sure I have my water bottle, wallet , lip tint, nazar ka chashma and the car keys of course.

If you weren’t a model, what would you be ?

Well that’s a tough question. If i wasn’t a model I

would probably be a yogi or a dancer. I love to dance. » Where do you see yourself in the next five years?

Haha. I am not even sure about the next 5 months, but if i was to plan, i see myself living on a mountain, in some foreign land doing yoga.. surrounded by nature and good souls, helping people heal. » Your favourite song to jam to?

My favourite jam these days is Michael Kiwanuka: cold little heart. » What is your dream destination?

My dream destination is any place with mountains and nature. I am a sucker for nature and rawness, i am not really into cities and the busy city life. I like serenity and peace. » What would you like to say to our followers?

You have one life, while you’re here .. dont just go through it, grow through it.

IN THE SPOTLIGHT

A BETTER PLACE IN CONVERSATION WITH THE UBER TALENTED BAKER, FAMIYA MASOOD.

32

PAPERAZZI MAGAZINE

2019

What inspired you to be a baker?

Well there are two things that inspired me to be one. First, I always had a major sweet tooth and used to look for recipes and bake in my liesure time. Secondly, things don't always work in a certain way tbh, so those were one of my worst days when I thought about starting something of my own to validate myself and one fine day I found myself passionate enough to give it a start. And as they say 'LIFE BEGINS AT THE END OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE.' When did you start your home based bakery, My Chocolate Wrappings?

Back in 2017 I started it. It’s been almost 3 years now and I love it. It definitely has been tiring too at times but Alhumdulillah for everything. I'm also thankful to my family, friends and my followers for the support, encouragement and their feedback.

What are some of your favorite flavour combinations?

Lotus - Nutella & Oreo - nutella (desserts) Nutella fudge is my signature flavour in cakes and I personally have a thing for banoffee pie, I can have it all day.

When you are not at work, where do you go for great dessert?

Rina's for sure, I'm a die hard fan of their Nutella caramel slice. Next on my list is the Lotus Cookie Skillet from - The Kitchen since I have heard alot about it.

How do you manage your time when you receive multiple orders at once?

I plan and organise my work before hand to avoid any hassle. It feels really good to have everything scheduled accordingly. Catering to urgent orders can be tricky and pretty overwhelming too but for that one requires patience.

Do you have any substitutions for diabetic people who'd like to order your baked goods?

I do Keto desserts and brownies which are low fat and mostly preferred by diet conscious people but for now I don't have anything specific for diabetic patients.

Describe a time when you had to work with a team to achieve a shared goal?

For tiered wedding cakes and specifically when its Eid I do require a lot of help to execute my orders are achieve my goals and for that my family supports me thoroughly.

From assembling to decor and packaging they are always there.

How does this position fit into your career goals?

I have officially considered Baking/ Cake and Dessert making as my career Alhumdulillah. I'm currently working on enhancing my skills and on introducing more flavour combinations. Also let me tell you Ownership to anything comes with a package of highs and lows, good days and bad days. It's not always all things nice. A lot of hard work, strength, courage and patience is required to achieve your goals.

Tell me how you organize, plan, and prioritize your work.

I have a thing for journals and am not able to sleep if I have not planned for the next day. I usually plan my weekends ahead since they are usually loaded with work and divide my time equally for work and for family. Both are equally very important. Also running your own venture makes it easier to schedule things as per your ease, I believe.

Lastly, where do you see My Chocolate Wrappings in 5 years?

God has always been very kind Alhumdulillah. Without HIS support I wouldn't have come this far. I really hope my hardwork pays off in the future too and HE supports me throughout. Ameen!

Tell us the most delicious meal you tried?

There were lots of delicious meals I had on this trip because the food in Zurich is so good, but if I had to choose then the best would probably be Wienerschnitzel, which is a panfried veal cutlet, made of a thin, breaded fillet.

The most exciting thing I did during my trip was explore places of Zurich I had never been to or seen before. We walked lots and even came across this gem of a place in the heart of the city; Lindenhof Hill.

horoscope

Our fab astrologer Zahid Haider, styles up your stars. Find out what’s in store for you this week!

For your in-depth weekly forecast call 0322-757-5219 E-mail: happyhaider65@gmail.com

ARIES (MAR. 21- APRIL 20) One step forward, two steps backward. It may get a little hard to stay motivated. The truth is, things are unlikely to work out the way you want them to, but that’s because you need to pause, step back from what you are creating, and gain perspective.

There are parts of you that do not fit the narrative you will write in 2020, and only you know the limiting beliefs that are getting in the way of success.

TAURUS (APR. 21- MAY 21) Manifestation game on point, Taurus. If you’ve put in the work, expect nothing less than magnificent returns. For some of you, this could mean an improvement in your financial status. Wealth and money management is where your focus will lie over the next few days. Thinking about investing in property? The time is right. Despite how well everything is turning out, there are certain things that will disappointment.

At times like these, let ‘don’t sweat the small stuff’ be your mantra.

SCORPIO (OCT. 24 - NOV. 22) Once you silence the mind, everything will take care of itself. Exercise a little more faith in yourself and the mysterious forces above. Trust that a big breakthrough is on the cards, one that will put you in the public eye for all the right reasons. But this week isn’t just about achieving the larger-than-life goals. It’s about painting and dancing and singing. It’s about art museums and soulful concerts. Stay open to life’s many experiences and stay connected to those who make your heart feel good.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 23 -DEC. 21) A big change is on the cards for you, one that will put you in touch with the most creative aspects of yourself. Ask yourself this potent question at the start of the week: what is trying to be born through me? Journal the ideas you channel so you can develop them over a period of time. Is there a therapy or modality you feel connected with? Turn to a mentor or let the Universe teach you what you need to know.

GEMINI (MAY 22-JUNE 21) This week is all about self-care, Gemini. You perfect the art of turning inwards and nurturing your own temple, as you inspire those around you to put themselves first.

It’s the only way to bring your A-game on, isn’t it? As such, this phase isn’t so much about being in go mode. It’s about focusing on your goals, being consistent in your efforts, and leaving the rest to the Universe. The more you open yourself to receiving, the easier things will flow into your experience.

CAPRICORN (DEC 22.- JAN. 20) Stay committed to your goals, Capricorn. Show the Universe how dedicated you are to your path, and trust that the doors that were once closed will open themselves for you. There’s big news for those who have been in the market for a new job. An esteemed organization could send you the offer letter you have been waiting for. Those who are doing their own thing are likely to manifest a major project too. The key to wooing the client at hand: do things by the book (with a little room for spontaneity, of course).

CANCER (JUNE 22-JULY 22) Mark Twain once said, “Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines.

Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream.

Discover.” This is a big week for you. With confidence as your preferred method of intoxication, you are defeating the limited beliefs that have held you back from taking over the world. Make that bold move you’ve been thinking about, and leave the ‘what’ and the ‘how’ to the Universe. Trust that you will figure out what you need to know as you go along.

AQUARIUS (JAN. 21.- FEB. 19) Ready, set, go! You are beginning a new phase in the realm of your career, one that promises to challenge you in the right way. What you need to keep in mind: good things take time, so be patient with yourself and the Universe. Practice gratitude for what you have now and the lessons you are yet to learn. Remember to keep your budget in check as well.

Having a financial reserve in place will help you build towards your dreams.

LEO (JULY 23-AUG 22) Be mindful of the thoughts you are putting into the Universe—thoughts that are slowly becoming things. Yes, there is a way out of the dilemma you have found yourself in. In order to bring about a positive change, tame the monkey mind first.

For some, this phase could bring about a sudden change of Fortune and not in the best way. When you find yourself bogged down by your circumstances, remember the transient nature of everything.

VIRGO (AUG. 23 -SEPT. 23) This phase of your life promises big breakthroughs and even bigger rewards. Oh, the thrill that comes from doing the things you once believed you were incapable of!

Bonus: people around you are celebrating your victories like their own and drawing inspiration from your life story. But this is the end of the year, Virgo. We are inching towards the finish line. Don’t be in a hurry to start over or rush to the next phase.

Take time to pause, breathe and gather your strength. Doing nothing at all is just as important as taking over the world.

LIBRA (SEPT. 24 -OCT. 23) What happens when things don’t turn out the way you imagined they would? Do you give up on your dreams or do you surrender to the flow? Choose the path of least resistance, Libra. Let the Universe intervene on your behalf. A major cosmic cleanup is due. Trust that things will settle by the end of the week, giving you a renewed sense of purpose.

PISCES (FEB. 20-MAR. 20) Not everybody is going to understand your perspective. They don’t have to. Stand by what you believe anyway. This chapter of your life requires you to set crystal clear intentions and be unstoppable in the pursuit of what sets your heart on fire. Remember, the only limitations that exist are the ones you perceive. Challenge yourself to fight the demon of self-doubt as you move forward with grace and dignity.
