I know this is not the greatest time for me to post this laddos, but then life is like that! What with my diet plan and being determined not to touch a sweet dish, you may think that I might be tempted. For one thing, this was prepared during Sankranti and another well..another reason.
Anyway with the diet plan going strong, I am surely not going to be making sweets but only post ones that were already prepared. The day has been hectic with work and the diet putting lot of pressure. Basically it was because I wasn't really prepared for it. Well that shows that I got to be more prepared. Work has been hectic the last two days which resulted in me working the weekend too. I completed the breakfast and hubby dear took the kids for a trip to his friends family in a town. They came back only late evening and recollected that they really enjoyed the trip.
They play with calf and ran around wild. These were some of the bounties that our friends sent back. This reminded me of my childhood spent cultivating. That's a story for another day for sure. For now enjoy the pictures.

A brilliant recipe, Valli. Who would have thought of grinding popped seeds? I can tell they are deadly for a diet, though. 😛

there is such a thrill in cooking and eating home grown vegetables...i have a vegetable garden in my backyard and usually i have tomatoes, bell peppers, eggplant, chillies, all summer long and a lemon tree all year long and also some winter vegetables....though they are hard to maintain since its been raining during winter last couple years...
