After being spoiled with perfect dosa’s at our friend’s place for a week, we decided to buy a ready-made packet and try it ourselves. Well, we failed quite miserably, and didn’t have the appliances or ingredients to make chutney, only had a package of chutney powder, so instead of eating it as a dosa I [...]

Yesterday I bought tooth powder. MIM couldn’t believe I would do such a thing. Really, I got a lecture from the moment I picked up the product to all the way out the door and back into the car. “Why are you going back in time?” MIM grumbled. “In India we would use tooth powder [...]

Have you ever eaten these scrumptious potato chips? Well I suggest if you do, that you do not eat them in the dark, on the couch, while watching a movie.
