But that instantly got me thinking about utilizing this peanut butter into other recipes! I had also been wanting to bake healthy recipes and had purchased […]
The three months of summer just breezed by! I had been on a sabbatical from work yet I don’t know how the months flew by! I spent 5 weeks in India so that explains partly why I felt the time go by so fast. I spent half the time in kerala undergoing Ayurvedic treatment for […]
Banana Bread is a favorite in my house. I must make it at least once a month. Actually whenever I have over ripe bananas. Most of the time I substitute some part of the flour with whole wheat flour. And then lots of walnuts and dried fruits also go in. Hence I like to make […]
February brings mixed emotions in me. One one hand it brings us a lot of snow storms but on the other hand it also is so romantic because of Valentine’s day. Our wedding anniversary also falls close to V day so for me Feb says ROMANCE in capital letters 🙂 And so once again I got my twin heart […]

Vanilla Cupcakes with a strawberry surprise! How cute is that isn’t it? I don’t know how this idea came to my mind. But it did and I just had to try it! Especially now when it is strawberry season and when for the last two weeks my weekly share in the CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) […]

The name ‘Mexican Wedding cookies’ sounds quite romantic and alluring right? These cookies are actually indeed quite cute and seductive looking – small cookie balls rolled in powdered sugar.
