Thank You, Nandri, Gracias!

I have begun to enjoy blogging so much that, I am sure when I go to India I will try to log in as much as possible, I am just hooked on to it now!

Just like visiting friends , I have been hopping to various blogs and become friends with many. I have learnt to cook a whole lot of new recipe and R has been a happy camper enjoying all the food I make or should I say guinea pig…

I am trying to remember all that I made from various blogs. The fun thing I did a couple of weekends ago was to cook our weekend meal only from various blogs. So here goes the menu

Appetizer

Shredded chicken from Inji Pennu
This dish was so simple to make and yet to delectable.

Soup

Corn and Bell Pepper soup from Krithika
The soup had the sweetness of the corn and the pepper made it spicy. It is a great accompaniment on a cold winter day!

Curry

Ginger Chicken from Karthi Kannan
This was a super hit in our home, R licked the dish clean.

Dessert

Parupu Payasam from Sudha
It disappeared in a jiffy, no left overs, so you can tell how tasty it was.

On days when I bored of eating my own food (poor R), I browsed through blogs and made a few dishes

I made Nabeela ‘s Cluster beans , but used regular beans instead, guys this is a must try dish. It was a superb hit!

I also made Krithika’s wheat dosa, R mastered the art of making them super crispy in an iron skillet, so I savored every bite with molaga podi.
I know I have made more , but just cant get to recollect.

On another note, I had posted about an orphanage sometime ago, and guess what , I have collected nearly $500! Thanks to all of you who mailed out the checks to me. I will update you with pictures and stories when I am back from India.

    Shankari, this is about your previous post which was an appeal for bone marrow donors. My husband had participated in a drive for a young boy at the Lemont Temple in Chicagoland last year. They had registered him with The National Bone Marrow Registry. I am sure your friends know this but one thing to do would be to contact the Registry to find out if there are any Indians who could be a potential match. The Registry then gets in touch with the registered donors that match. At least this is what we were told at the Lemont Temple. I wish I remembered more details of the drive but unfortunately, I don’t. :-(
