{September 2, 2009}   Mysore Pak

Life is pretty much busy with a toddler. She wants to touch everything do what ever mommy does. Life is also fun with her. I want to enjoy with her as much as possible. She has her own opinion of things. Today I made idlis, but she wouldn’t touch it just because they are white. I hope this stage doesn’t last long. She wants to know why I am doing certain things. Life is busy and fun. From now on atleast I will try to post one recipe a week.

{June 4, 2009}   I am back

I know it’s been a while.There are so many posts to read and catch up on. Thanks to everyone who checked upon me. I have been cooking and taking photos but a bit lazy to write the actual post. From now on I will try to post atleast once a week. I have missed so many events. From now on I will try to contribute as much as possible. Life is busy and interesting with a toddler. Her smile just melts me. How are you guys doing? How is your life? I will try to catch upon blogs and leave comments whenever possible. I will be back with a recipe soon. Thanks everyone for thinking about me.
