My first online sketch using my feather light brain. So, I have been thinking of doing a series of posts on the best things in and around this city where I originally come from. The city as of now is sinking in parts with some … Continue reading Chennai Temple Trails

Home is definitely where the heart is
In this new age, almost every house has one person who lives far far away for various reasons. Whether it is the software engineer son who is sent away for a two-year stint to the states or some random country in Europe or the rather simple daughter who gets married to one and tags along with the … Continue reading Home is definitely where the heart is
First Diwali/Deepavali post on my blog :)
It is often said that Diwali is celebrated to enjoy the victory of Lord krishna over Narakasura (the demon god) while some other people believe it was only to welcome home Lord Rama after his 14 year exile. I am simply happy to believe in both these stories because it is such a beautiful day … Continue reading First Diwali/Deepavali post on my blog 🙂
Clay Pot Dal
While there are enough blogs to give you recipes and ideas, what am I doing here just chatting away about food( mostly) like this blog is a place for me to express all the self-indulgent stuff that we do?

Apple Pickle and my impending antiquity!
So, how old are you? This is a question a lot of us are faced with from time to time.

Somehow, dearest google came up with the "Balloon fiesta event in Bristol" in the search results and this was going to happen in early August. … Continue reading A Ballooon(y) Break in Beautiful Bristol
Goodbye Summer with yet another recipe
Summertime means a lot more than ever since I have been living in Britain. Having said that, whatever the weather brings, I just have to talk about it simply because thats what many people do here. That doesn't make me feel entirely British but I love to use it as a conversation starter while I am … Continue reading Goodbye Summer with yet another recipe
One long bumpy ride (If you will excuse the pun)
Being pregnant, as almost every woman would say is probably the next best thing to becoming the bride or even better than that for me actually. Although nothing beats the joy of "being" a mother for me now. Anyway, I did enjoy being the bride and all the attention but the love and support you get while … Continue reading One long bumpy ride (If you will excuse the pun)
Cheesy Broccoli- oh so easy!
A while ago, this green goodness wasn't as popular as it is in India today. Some people still have no clue although I don't blame them. I believe it was not as abundantly consumed as it was in the west then. Maybe because it hasn't got that "yum" feeling like fried okra/ladies finger or say even … Continue reading Cheesy Broccoli- oh so easy!
