Another few days and I will be back to the US. I should be more excited given that I have been away from my home for more than 3 months, but its a mixed bag of feelings. I always hate leaving India. Though I have friends and my husband in the US, India...

275 meters swimming, 16km bike riding over our hilly town and a 5K run. Finally, completed my first triathalon! Now, the embarrassing part- I was one of the lasts to finish. While my swimming and run timings were pretty decent, everyone dusted me off in...

We have been talking too much savory around here on the blog. It’s time to get the sweet stuff out! I saw this cake on Foodgawker (those sinners, corrupting the minds of us who are always struggling with our weight) and well, I just had to make the cake....

Being Indian I hate wastage. Of any kind. One of the reasons why I gained weight when I came to US (besides, the cliched that I got married) was that I was so used to finish everything on my plate, whenever we went out to eat, I ended up finishing the ridiculously...

I haven’t been feeling too motivated to blog. I really don’t know why. Just in that rut, I guess- the bloggers’ block. This blog was supposed to be about food as well as my life with snippets from my day to day life. You know, so that one day, when I or...

So I have been strumming my fingers on the keyboard for a while now. I am in a dilemma about the recipe I am posting today. Should I share this recipe or spare you from the depression the knowledge of this recipe would cause. In case you have resolved to...
