Happy birthday sweetie, we love you so much! You were the one who made us parents for the first time, who taught us what being a parent was all about. We feel blessed to have you in our lives.

Yes, much as we would like to hold on to it, summer is truly slipping away from us. The almost continuous rainfall in our neck of the woods have lowered the temperatures considerably. Autumn is truly on it's way. On our last few visits to the local market, we've managed to come back with loads of… [Read More...]

Our house is very 'potatoey' at the moment. Potatoes from big and small, light skinned to dark skinned, they all seem to be eating up the spaces in the kitchen. The reason? Dinesh is on a potato roll. Every time he's been out shopping a huge bag of potatoes seems to land up in our… [Read More...]

I love surprises, the pleasant ones of course. And I love the surprise that stuffed foods hold . The sense of anticipation while cuting into it to reveal the goods hiden within, gets me all excited like a child. I made these mini chocolate cakes the other day. I wanted to store the cakes to share… [Read More...]

Energy, that is what I need at the moment; energy to get all those things done, that seems to be piling up on my to do list. I try to look away, but when has that ever helped? What needs to be done, needs to be done! So, I am ploughing through the never ending… [Read More...]

I was pulling out the weeds in the garden today. As I was pulling and clearing away the dried fallen  leaves, it suddenly dawned on me. Hang on a minute! Aren't these dried leaves falling from the bush above? On close inspection, I noticed that quite a few leaves had changed colour; could it be… [Read More...]

The days have cooled down considerably. The glaring sun of a few days earlier haven't been seen in our neck of the woods for a while now. We've been waking up to cooler mornings and darkness seems to set in  a little earlier. But yes, it's nice and pleasant. The skies have been like this… [Read More...]

The kids have taken over! Yes, the kids holidays are in full swing- the very messy, noisy house is proof of that! Yes, it's hard work keeping two active kids occupied. Whenever we find the time, especially during the holidays, myself, Rengoni and Agastya have always enjoyed our little cooking/baking sessions. We love discussing our food… [Read More...]

This month I am completing three years as a daring baker. And what a joy ride it has been; as a part of this wonderful group, I have tried out so many new things, things that I probably would not have tried by myself. So, thanks to Lis and Ivonne for starting… [Read More...]

The kids summer holidays have started. It was nice to wake up leisurely today- no early morning rush! Things have been practically crazy for the last few days and I have been  running around like a headless chicken. And that is the reason for the lack of posts for the last few days.
