Among many other(mostly weird) things I search on Google as a mum, one day I was searching for some balloon prints to hang up on our wall for the little boy at home. 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

Leave a comment

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)

Leave a comment

    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! 

2 Comments

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!

Exploring the Spice Souk in Dubai!

A few years ago, just when I started cooking, I would call up mom like ten times or so to make sure I was adding the correct masala and enough water etc etc. On days when I thought that I was bothering her way too much or probably it was too late for me to … Continue reading Exploring the Spice Souk in Dubai!

Our favourite baby books so far!

You may all probably know the importance of reading to your child. As an enthusiastic first time mum, I started to look for books when my peanut was about 4ish months but I only started reading to him regularly from 6months. At this stage, I understood that babies enjoy books not just by looking at … Continue reading Our favourite baby books so far!
