My heartfelt thanks to all those who went patrolling the other blogs for drink recipes this month. When I came up with the theme Mixed Drinks for MBP, I was not sure what to expect. I was secretly hoping for some cocktail recipes, but my ever resourceful fellow bloggers came up with some really creative entries for the event. Whatever you are in the mood for- hot or cold, cocktail or moktail, thick or thin, fruity or milky- you can […]

Thanks everyone for joining me in my 202nd post celebrations. Wow, I can’t believe most of you could guess most of the answers right! Thanks again to one of the sweetest people in the blogging world, my dearest fried Musical for these thoughtful gifts.
First, here are the answers to the guessing game.
Punjabi Wadi In Musical’s own words they are spice cakes made out of daal (urad or urad+moong) and petha (ash-gourd), with lots and lots of spice-sun dried to perfection […]
A Milestone, a Game and some Cool Prizes!
Sunday, March 2nd, 2008Filed Under Blog Events, Random Musings | 64 Comments
First, let me explain the milestone part. This is my 202nd post! Wondering what 202 signifies? Well, everyone celebrates the magic number 200, not me! 202 is a very special number to me. It was our very first apartment number, and it also was the address of the first house that we owned (well, the mortgage company owned it, but our names were somewhere in the agreement.). And my birthday is Feb 2nd, that is 02-02!! So you see why […]
Announcing Monthly Blog Patrol March Edition - Mixed Drinks
Thursday, February 21st, 2008Filed Under Blog Events | 50 Comments
In my last post I mentioned how over-stuffed my “Recipes-to-Try” folder has gotten over the past year, and most of you seems to be in the same boat. As food bloggers, we all spend a lot of time reading our fellow bloggers’ recipes, and every day we come across so many mouthwatering dishes, it is impossible to try every single one. A blog event that encourages trying a recipe from a fellow blogger, is a small nudge in the rear […]
A Fruit A Month - Lychee Round up
Thursday, August 30th, 2007Filed Under Blog Events, Lychee | 34 Comments
When I announced the Lychee theme for A Fruit A Month event, not everyone was happy! Some of you actually hate these fruits (SHOCK!!!) and some of you (spoiled lot ;)) only like the fresh Lychees! I had a choice - pick a more popular fruit and make it easy for everyone. But what’s the fun in that? I like a tough challenge, if at least one person decided to try Lychees because of this event, and if at least […]
