Thank You For Our Daily Bread!

Goddess Annapoorna is said to be the Goddess of Food. She bestows us with good, clean and palatable food, and we can never thank her enough for that. If you observe closely, she holds a ladle in her hand to treat you to sumptuous food!

Season With Sauce

What I like about sauces is that they let you add flavour to your food, and not just season it. You can make your food spicy, tangy, sweet, bitter or sour just as your taste buds like it, and yet share food with everyone else with the family!

Appetizing!

Good food and great company can make an evening quite memorable. This is the food part of one such fun-filled times. Well, its potato chips, cheese dip and a generous sprinkling of cottage cheese, but you won’t hear me complaining!
