Mangoes! It is raining mangoes here in Pune. Western Maharashtra, the region where I live has a fascination for mangoes, especially Hapus or Alphonso. No other mango makes the cut for folks here.

Gazpacho – Cold Spanish Tomato Soup Recipe
Some things are so simple that they fall off the radar. I have wanted to blog about this cold Spanish soup for years. But it always gets swept under the rug because ‘ Oh gazpacho! I can do that any time’. The scorching sun is really making me miserable this year. Actually, it does that…
When You are Down but Not Out
What could be worse than death? Loss of life seems like the ultimate calamity. But living with a long term illness or disability that leaves you unable to function normally can be worse. Imagine losing motor function, or being paralyzed. These scenarios are so shocking and distasteful, we try not to think about them. But…

Tap Tap Tap – The New World Order
‘OMG, I have a major crisis’, my friend screamed as she rushed into my home. ‘I accidentally stepped on my phone, and it won’t be replaced for a week. I can’t access a single mobile app. How will I survive?’ she moaned as I tried to calm her down. It’s true. Smart phones are an…
Why You’ll Never Succeed at Food Photography
I generally believe in ‘never say never’, but I am not convinced that I will ever be able to take fancy food photos. Mostly because I eat the stuff before I can take a good photo!! And then there is the tiny insignificant detail of not knowing how to take good food photos! Why am…
