Being an Introvert I have been an introvert throughout my life. As a result of this personality trait I have had very few but truly long term friendships. It was difficult for me to be friends with anybody because I remember from a very early age I did not like to talk with people. But […]
Health is Wealth This Millet Bread recipe is a part of my Bread Baking series. Leading a healthy lifestyle is a passion for me. In the last week, I realised the true meaning of the term “Health is Wealth”. This is because for the past seven days, my mother was in the hospital. We admitted […]
Travel Lust I should proclaim at the very onset that this post is about our Andaman Island vacation adventures. And the jaggery cookie recipe is a short but sweet return gift. It has been exactly one year since our last family vacation. Yes, you heard it right! It seems one whole year has gone by […]

Mocha CupcakesI was never a very big coffee fan. Tea was my thing. But then I came to taste specialty blend coffees one day at a small cafe near our place in Kolkata. Mind you its not your everyday instant coffee. Rather it is the freshly ground and filtered from exotic beans variety that made […]
A slice of cake for the soul with the evening cup of tea/ coffee for the mind is a match made in heaven. Our coffee dates were very frequent in the pre-apocalyptic world when things were “normal”! A particularly trying day at the office often ended with one of us suggesting a cuppa at any […]
