My first posting

Due to my son Ajay's continuous pressure, I have created this blog. More to come...
The original idea of this blog was by my brother Raj iyer who has always been a great motivating factor in our family.

Hi my beautiful wife and pyaari jeevansathi Jaya
It's highly commendable and great gesture from you to create this blog.
You have been feeding me for last 27 years with mouth watering Indian vegetarian food.(That is the secret of my good health)(I am 52 but people think I am still 40+ LOL) Once upon time I was a non.vegetarian and now I have become pure veggy, you have proved that if one can cook good veg. dishes then there is no need of trying non-veg.
Keep up the good work.
with lots of love
your hubby
Ashokkumar Bolan

"Due to my son Ajay's continuous pressure" - what is this, I say?! How do you think your laadla got his idea in the first place? From his maamaa (maama maama-ma...) - and I don't even get a little mention in the credits.

Cha-cha - I am very hurt. I need some badam burfi to manaofy me. :-(

Jaya said...

A Big thankyou to all of you who have posted such encouraging comments on my blog.Its your motivation that will keep me going.

RKdada said...

dearJaya,
just a thought which arose in my mind and which i thought i should share with you.
why not rechristen the blog as
JAYA's Vegetarian Delights!
this will establish your blog as different from others.
and also add a photo of yours?
do give this your considered thought!
am sure many will agree with my idea.
regards
krishnan

Dear Chitti,

The recepie for success is a platter of ideas mixed with a pinch of start and a beautiful garnish of enthusiasm...

Good to see you passing on your expertise to the world. Rookie chefs like myself would benefit a great deal from this.

Best wishes and great regards

Dear Jaya,

My dear Ashok has given a very exhaustive list of items.However I feel You try and stick to healthy items....No cholestrol...No fat.Rich food we can always get in restaurants.What we need is simple Ghar ka Khana and Ghar ka sweets which are appetising and good for health.I am sure you will give a thought to my suggestions and come out with relevant recepies.All the best.
