hi everybody,
I few days back Doris of meeso of sweet and spicy wrote to me that she had a hard time to stay on my blog and post any comment, Like this I have received I had lot of others writing to me, I am so thank ful to all of you who wrote to me about this problem, I knew because I myself had problem in accessing my blog and had hard time to stay on it !!, I wrote back to Doris about this and she was kind enough to send me some google help forum threads who had the same problem like mine, before going into the thread I thought of reporting this blog as spam to google and went into their ''Report a spam'', in the column provided I wrote my own blog name without even bothering to read the whole content, don't you think that was my height of stupidity !! or I think I was so desperate about rectifying it, now I am wondering how to contact google and tell them about the grave mistake I have done !!, can somebody help me with this please...
Then again I went back to the forum thread like me lot of other people had same problems, some of them had written that they had deleted gadgets which helped them to solve the problem. So, I went back to my blog and deleted some gadgets now I think my blog is not bugged with any other spam blogs.
But fingers crossed and hoping google would look into the blog and see that my blog is just a food blog and nothing else and wouldn't do anything to my blog.
I am so worried
with lots of love to all my readers
jayasri.

After the winter set in My kids pester me everyday that they want soup. I was telling my eldest that I can't make it everyday because dad doesn't like to have soup and bread everyday, he loves his rice!!, So, she wanted to make it clear, she went to him and asked what do you say ? soup, bread, and few cooked veggies, and with some finger chips or potato wedges!!, That is so british ain't it ?, very bristolian !!, well, funny when people in bristol have their own accent, ain't it ? for isn't it ?, Ta for Thanks, these words were so new to me when I came here, but I haven't picked them up, but, my kids have expecially my son !!, After coming here I see One English and people speak it in many different accents, Liverpool, birmingham, scotland, wales Oops!! i was amazed, and when i got to know about these, I remembered the film in which Prof. Henry Higgins says how can the british speak english in so many ways ? yes, The great film '' My Fair Lady'' (1964) I love that film and doesn't mind watching it now and then, My husband was not ready to watch it when my kids told him to, but, one day we were watching this movie when my hubby was sitting on the computer and doing his own work, we tried to lure him to watch the movie, and just gave it up, and then came this song where Higgins asks colonel pickering ''why can't be a woman more like a man ?'', well, that's he heard it and listened to the whole song, and loved it, and made us to rewind and watched the whole movie and thoroughly enjoyed it!! Men!, God! that's what (girls and me) we thought !!, so, said the girls to the man of the house!!.
PUMPKIN SOUP
- 1 cup chunks of yellow pumpkin/squash/
- 2 garlic pods
- a few sprigs of coriander leaves
- 1'' ginger
- salt to taste
- 1 small potato
- corn flour (optional)
- 1/2'' cinnamon stick
- 1 clove
- 1/2 tsp of pepper
- 1 bay leaf
- pepper powder (optional/or to garnish or increase the taste to your requirement)
- Cook the pumpkin, potato, garlic, clove, pepper, cinnamon stick and ginger in 1/2 litre of water until well cooked,
- Drain all the water and keep it aside
- Allow the veggies to cool then grind them into a smooth paste removing the bay leaf from it.
- Then dissolve this ground paste in the water kept aside, and see if it too thick add little more water to the consistency of a soup, But if you like it thick you can keep it just like that.
- If the soup is too watery take a tbsp of corn flour dilute it in water and add it to the soup to thicken it.
- Totally Make the soup however you like, I have just given jist of ingredients which you can alter to your own taste.
- Put it on the stove again and boil it with required quantity of salt,
- serve it garnished with finely washed and chopped coriander leaves which is also optional,
- You can add a dollop of cream if you like your soup a little bit creamy,
- Add pepper which is also optional if you like it more spiced like my daughter and me!! we loved it that way.
- Enjoy the hot soup with the bread of your choice, or with some croutons, or just plain.

Sometimes it's a good idea to ask a nerd for help. When your computer crashes is one example. You wouldn't think being faced with writer's block is such a time, but it might just be.
Seventh Sanctum is a site dedicated to generators, e.g. RPG character generators. You can get inspired to create a misunderstood druid for your next D&D session and the like. But what interested me were their writing tools. There is a random writing prompt/challenge thing that might kickstart something. Besides that a what-if-inator that probably won't inspire a story as much as get your mind's gears rolling. Worth a gander and a little toying with at the very least.

Never let it be said that buns are for matrons, librarians, or old ladies. It is as young and fresh as it can get that keep coming up on the ramp year after year. Last time round the buns were low, teased, and had lots of texture. In fact it is one of easiest to wear to fight the frizzies or to hide a failed styling attempt. A quick twisting of the low ponytail around the base and pinned was all you needed to do. But that’s changed now. For a more sophisticated turn the buns have gone way up on the head. Not a hair is out of place. You will need to arm yourself with light hold gel, shine spray, and mousse, definitely pins.

Hi all, Christmas and New year comming soon, everybody is so busy, me too!!, It's been almost a month I posted anything, and I was so happy, that I made such good friends through blogging, few of them enquiring what happened to me, thanks to all of you, I think I will get going now.., I missed doing my daring bakers challenge too, I miss it, but, I am going to do it soon enough and post it in my blog, I have not been able to visit everybody's blog, peeping now and then, I might have missed so many lovely dishes posted by you all, but I will look into them soon, Well, thank God!, I couldn't miss Indian Cooking Challenge, started by Srivalli and November month's challenge was making chigodilu , Valli is giving us new things to do in cooking and making us put on little weight!!, and making my children and friends enjoying all that I make, and me trying my best not to eat!!, Oh! everything becomes so difficult when I see the savouries my mouth starts watering, and this one just looked like kodubale's from karnataka state, which is my favourite, I thought I should try this out, and the process which I often do for my Ubbu rottis and other dishes I make from the basic flour made this way, but, I never new that this can fried in oil and made as a snack!!, thanks for the challenge valli, and also sorry for posting this so late, as usual, I wanted to post this in the morning, I couldn't make it, my daughter fell sick yesterday night, I had to go to work, after that, I really thought she must have caught the flu, she is alright now, thank to God!, the school closes tomorrow, with the tempratures dropping down here, children won't listen if you tell them cover your head and go out!! and end up with blocked nose and head becoming heavy and what nots, So, I made mologu rasam today, I am really tired, sometimes I wonder why did I ever venture into this!, sorry let me go back to the recipe..
I added cumin seeds, chilli powder also into the water when it was boiling and then continued the process as said above, add added sesame seeds only in the end. if it is a little sticky you can use rice flour just dip your hand and take it out and make the rounds or apply oil to your hand and make the rounds and deep fry in batches, as moong dal is added it gives a golden red colour.
II Recipe: Ingredients:
3/4 cup - Rice flour
1/4 cup - Maida (All purpose flour)
2 tbsp - Ghee
1/4 tsp - Ajwain
1/4 tsp - Red chilli powder
a pinch turmeric powder
salt to taste
2 tbsp - Oil or Ghee
Oil for deep frying
Method:
Method is just the same as above, here also I added everything to the water and mixed the flours in the water and kneaded them into a soft dough and carried on with the same procedures to make the chigodilus, nice and crispy.
