Belated birthday wishes to Prashanth and Bhuvana Perimma.

I think this is my first post since Diwali. Hope everybody had a great diwali, we definitely did :) I tried making a different sweet this time (apart from the usual suspect - Gulab Jamun). Made chocolate walnut burfi from one of Sanjeev Kapoor's books. The dish itself is not as fancy as its name though. Finally, it turned out to be layered theratti paal (phew after all that effort)!!. Chocolate flavoured theratti paal wedged in-between 2 layers of plain theratti paal, topped with chocolate!!! Well, anything chocolate definitely tastes good. So, yes it was real yumm.

Otherwise, just the normal routine with Vaishnavi falling sick every 3-4 weeks!!

Wishing Anu akka and Rajan a very very happy (belated) anniversary. Hope you had a great day.

Post diwali, my baking has taken a back seat. Mohan has asked me to let it be for atleast 2 months. But my hands are already itching to do something. I am still getting used to the new micro/convection. So don't I need to bake more to attain perfection ;) Hope to bake some cookies this week and will post e-cookies for everybody.

Wishing August celebrants a very very happy birthday. Special wishes to Anand anna on his 50th (!!!!) birthday.

About updates, all of us are now getting ready and eagerly waiting for the festivals to begin. So am I . As a warm-up, I tried my hand at making the 7-cup sweet. Well, that's the name it's called by. Probably who-ever invented that sweet could not think of a better name. Here it is, for all e-sweet lovers

Vaishnavi had her first experience of the cinema theater last saturday. We took her to Harry potter. Ok ok, I know it is not a very kiddie movie . Here she is, eager to get into the hall.

She was a little puzzled by the whole hall being dark. When we entered the hall, we had missed the first 5 minutes of the movie. As soon as we were settled in our seats, her first question was (in no hushed tones) "appa, which channel is this running on"!!!! We had a good laugh. Then every 5 minutes she kept asking "when would they switch on the light" or it was "appa is it still day? then why is it so dark"!!!

Hope Perippa and athimbers get their phone/net connections fast. Till my next update...
