I know I posted a broken wheat recipe just a couple of weeks ago, but I just had to share this one as soon as possible. After the first successful experiment with broken wheat, we were totally smitten by its crunchy texture. It can take some serious abuse without going all mushy on you, so [...]
Another Sunday wasted away, it was gorgeous outside but I just lazed around the house with all the shades down so that the sunlight doesn’t get in the way of my TV viewing. I did have a busy Saturday with a bit too much sun, so I didn’t even feel guilty about not getting out [...]
I am a bit skeptical about trying out a brand new restaurant after a few disastrous experiences. With so many great places in and around Seattle, once we have a bad experience in a restaurant, the chances of us going back there is very slim. And everyone knows that most restaurants won’t have all their [...]
In my last post I ranted about folks who don’t respond to my oh-so-very-helpful e-mails. But to be honest, I have to say that I am no saint either! I have promised many things on e-mail to readers which I never delivered. One such undelivered promise is about posting an Indian themed South Beach Diet [...]
I came home early to go out for a much needed Friday evening Happy Hour but a certain someone is running late as usual. I was bored out of my mind, so I went through and replied to a bunch of pending e-mails from my blog account. I get a decent amount of e-mail in [...]
You know you are going to love a restaurant when you are greeted with a complimentary glass of champagne as soon as you walk in the door. That too after you’ve announced that you are just going to wait for 45 minutes till a table at the restaurant next door frees up. Then when you [...]
This one is a rather boring looking curry, but it was really tasty for a quick fix dish made with this and that from the pantry and refrigerator. I have never really combined chickpeas (garbanzo beans) with eggs before, I wasn’t planning on it this time either. As the chickpeas were simmering in the gravy [...]
Hope everyone had a fun and safe weekend! We stayed in town this long weekend and celebrated the holidays with friends. I had way too much food and way too many drinks that I could go a couple of days without any food. Not that I am going to! I even tried to make some [...]
Wishing all my US readers a Happy 4th of July weekend! If you are planning a party this weekend or just going to chill out, I am sure you could use some cooling cocktails! I thought it is the perfect time to share a new easy-breezy cocktail recipe and highlight some of my older recipes [...]
