It’s been raining potatoes here in the blogosphere lately. That is because 2008 is the International Year of Potato. Wow, a whole year devoted to the spuds! Recently Sra wrote that she has used up all her potato memories, but she did have enough memories to fill about a dozen posts… That got me thinking about my relationship with the spud, and I realized that sadly I may not even have enough memories to fill one post!
Growing up, potatoes were […]

The holidays are finally over, time to get back to real life. We had a nice break at home, got used to sleeping at 2-3 am everyday and waking up around noon. It is going to take a little while before getting back to the rhythm of the office schedule from tomorrow. I want to kick start the regular blogging schedule on the new year by posting a recipe after the long break.

Wow, have I gotten lazy or what? I don’t know if it is the cold, or it is just the holiday spirit around, I have been a bad bad blogger lately.

And as far as blog events are concerned, I have […]

When I invite friends home, normally there is one vegetarian among ten hardcore non vegetarians. Since the only vegetarian in the group is my best friend, she gets to make a personal request, and she always ask for my spinach cutlets. It is a very easy recipe, and the patties can be made a day in advance, so I’m more than happy to oblige. These cutlets are so yummy, even the hardcore carnivores hog these, I always end up making enough for the whole […]

I started blogging just two months ago; about a month ago during one of my regular food blog lurking sessions, I came across the event Jihva for POTATO . This was the first time I was even hearing about a blog event, and I wanted to participate so badly. But I was kind of lost, potatoes are a filler ingredient in most of my dishes, so I decided to wait for another month to participate in a JFI event. But […]
