Ha Ha. The title easily gives away how serious I am about celebrating ‘Pi’ day! Well,.. ahem, I was never too crazy about mathematics. I mean I was good at it until 10th grade or so when it started becoming too complicated with theories (or was it theorems) that I slowly started losing interest! Hyperbola, parabola, […]
Nuts – whether they are almonds, cashews, pistachios or peanuts -you will always find these in my pantry. The ‘Mr’ loves to snack on these.

In case you are wondering, it is actually fairly simple to roast and puree a pumpkin. The only hard part is to cut it initially since […]
Fall is so beautiful. I love this time of the year with the vibrant colors, the cool breezes and the fallen leaves. It is as if nature is asking us to pause and slow down from our hectic lives and take a look around us and appreciate the beauty. I love going on scenic drives […]
