chilli chicken

Been busy, the last few weeks, taking mum around. Her best outing was whale watching.
Got to try this chilli chicken recipe from Sanjeev Kapoor's website, a couple of days ago.

Mum and m-i-l like to grow plants and they do well. I appreciate their input every time they visit. I like to grow herbs and the curry leaf plant. No more. Cant be bothered to dig the soil.

If only

If only, I had a faint idea that life would turn out to be like this(!), I might have invested all the time, money and efforts in attending a finishing school.

Achappam.......Rose cookies (Kerala style rosettes)

Mum taught me to make achappam using the 'achchu' which is a cast iron mould(her m-i-l's) dipped in rice flour batter and fried. My favourite! My princess loves them too!
