By occupation, I am a software professional. The times when I am not at the office, I am seen either running behind my 3 kids or cooking to feed my family. The time what is left to me is naturally spent thinking on how and what to blog on, which is mostly everyday simple Indian food. These are what I have learnt from my mom, from my mother in law (Athamma) and some my own creations. Food is never so delicious if there isn't a memory associated with that. And that's how I think about all dishes. Each one of them brings back many memories and I enjoy the thoughts that flow.
Hailing from a place that never has all the four seasons in its actual sense, I have always been fascinated with the four different seasons. So it was only natural that I think of a name depicting it. But if truth be told, it hardly was no longer than a minute when I pondered on the name. And there I was thinking I was doing a great thing by coming up with a cooking blog! I also kind of like the way it appeals to me on a metaphorical level. One thing led to another and I ended up having one too many topics to brag on!
With the boys growing up to eat regular food, I found it even more challenging to prepare food that they would like to eat. So on top of having an older kid who is a picky eater, I now ended up with a bunch of them. I felt the need to have a space dedicated to cooking 'Kid friendly' dishes that would vanish in a wisp! So you can check out Spice your life, space where I felt comfortable discussing issues that crop up for Parents, record dishes that a toddler would gobble up and easy breeze dishes for bachelors. Now don't ask me how that came about, its another story! Another most interesting topic is covering Diabetes, authored by my Dad. You can read more about it in Spice your life.
Finally, after 500+ recipes and many months past, my hubby dear got convinced that I was serious about publishing a cookbook. So that's what is keeping us busy right now. We are hoping we would get the book out by end of this year! Will surely share it as I make more progress.
