Today’s post is a special from my Dad. When I told him about the Curry Mela, he was very eager for Amma to cook some non veg for Breakfast. For that he even got all the things required and everything was done on my behalf. There is a new super market that opened in Anna Nagar, its a huge Seafood super market and you can expect to get anything and everything in that place. I haven’t see that place, not that I ever venture into a non veg shop, but heard that it is really huge. So Dad went shopping at this place and got these fresh prawns. Amma makes an awesome Prawn Biryani, which hubby dear is very fond of. I haven’t learnt the recipe from her yet. But Dad keeps telling me that I should record that recipe.

Coming to this prawn curry, Amma prepared and they were all ready for their breakfast. But as most Sunday mornings, I was busy with the kids. So asked Dad to click the pictures. All I had to work on these pictures were resizing and putting up my name. Wow, such a simple task for me…

Do you like Beetroot? I didn’t for a greater part of my life. Amma had never somehow prepared this much at home. Well I have actually never asked the reasons. But since I never eat this growing up, continued so when I had my own kitchen.After Konda came into picture, we have been trying to include most of the vegetables. Though this again played no part in our list. All those were the days, before Athamma came to live with us.

One day, when I couldn’t get back home early to cook the dinner, she said she will prepare something. I didn’t really ask what she had in mind.When I reached home, I was quite curious to know what she had prepared. On starting at the bowl, I was shocked to find something RED, staring back at me. Now I can’t actually shout my top out to ask why she made it right. So very coolly asked her, what’s in the bowl. Well she is a cool lady you know, so she said since she couldn’t find anything interesting in fridge for dinner, she got Beetroot. So she decided t…

The morning was quite chill and it only had me snuggling against the twins again. I was already late and I had to get things ready for Konda. She was leaving early to school as she is participating in a program, where is the angel. Amma bought her a grown more than a year back, which looks more like a bridal dress, but if we remove the head gear, it can looks like an angel dress. Which lead Konda complaining that the wings were not there to make it a perfect angel get up. Whoever said angels should have wings! I told my little one that all angels need not have wings, they come in different forms. And to top all, her teacher asked her to get a magic wand and a crown.

Seriously, I wouldn’t know where all these things might be sold. When we had visited Calcutta, she had got a crown, two wands. Both the wands had long disappeared. This crown somehow stood the test of time. And that got broken just yesterday when she had it in her bag. So we spent some time late night trying to s…
