Simple stuff

My mom made me make her a dessert the other night that I landed up eating most of.

It made me realise how the simplest things in life are always the best. True I love crème brulée and Bavarian creams, but simple hearty things bring so much joy as well.

Some of my favourite simple desserts are:

Yogurt, fruit and honey
Bread pudding
Jaggery and dry fruits
Coconut barfi
Dark chocolate
Chini ki roti
Meethe chawal

The dessert I made for my mom was:

Jaggery/rice/dry fruits

Mix together boiled rice, jaggery and dry fruits. Wizz in the microwave for 2 mins and mix and serve. Its hot, sticky, gooey and yummy!

Farmville




Well looks like Farmville is the flavour of the season. Everywhere I look people seem to be ploughing and sowing all the time. Pictures of sunflowers, blue berries and aloe seem to be on every ones homepage.

I really wonder how long this craze will last. If I was in zygnas shoes I would be ready to launch with an upgraded version of Farmville anytime soon and try and maximise this phase as much as possible.
