What a year this has been so far. I know it’s only 8 days into the new year, but to me it feels like it is already June. The first day of the year, I landed up injuring the bottom of my foot from my own stupidity. I was too lazy to undo the laces … Continue reading Eggless Hungarian Tart
Malva milktart
Growing up, my mother was known for her milktarts. Whenever we went somewhere or got invited to a function, you could bet your last dollar that she would be whipping up milktarts to take. She even had 2 special brown pie glass dishes that were only reserved for her milktarts. She still has those 2 … Continue reading Malva milktart

Orange cake
If I had to see this recipe in a book, I would have overlooked it and turned the page. I am not a huge orange fan. The only orange related food we have in the house is a random bottle of Orange juice, that I sometimes crave for breakfast. But you will never find a … Continue reading Orange cake
Burfee biscuits
With less than a month to go before Diwali 2020, I am starting to plan and practice making goodies.

Chargrilled pineapple
My first weekend out and about in town. I got to the post office 2 hours before it opened, to get my car license renewed. 2 hours before the time and I was still number 4 in the line.

Banana and walnut cookies
These past few weeks have been draining, with prayers every other weekend. The just isn’t time to stand and bake and of course I have been 100% lazy.
