Is it because those comments were made through my cell phone? Because I comment on all your posts. <br /><br />Anyway! I am a mix-it-all-in person too. My Father has this habit, I guess i picked it up from him, I like to flavor my yogurt rice with pickle or vegetables, or phodni, sometimes, even a little bit Manasihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07219295365602655534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10611609.post-54850882901086693182019-09-04T23:52:49.493-05:002019-09-04T23:52:49.493-05:00Actually there was another such place in New Haven...Actually there was another such place in New Haven run by one Mr. Gopi which was very good actually.

Hope they are back home safely. Kolhapur has a lot of rolling hills and my parents' home fortunately is at an elevation so they were safe, but everyone was dealing with fuel shortages, school closings and things like that. <br /><br />How interesting that you see monkeys around! My kids would love that.

A visiting friend was just telling me about a fast casual restaurant that was serving Indian bowl meals- where you choose the protein, choose the sauce (coconut, korma and stuff). She pointed out that Indian food has pretty complex flavors and not everything goes with everything, which makes this a bit hit or miss.

We have dinner plates with compartments and our kids (and visiting kids!) love eating off those.

I mentioned the Aldi brand but you are right that there are many brands these days of non-traditional bean based pastas. Like you, I am finding a huge benefit from a carb-controlled diet (won't say low carb, more like moderate carbs). Being insulin resistant, it is what works for my body. Your trip to Eastern Europe sounds absolutely lovely!

Hope your folks are doing fine now. <br />The tshirt and the urban wild life is so heart warming. The only wild life we get here at ours are monkeys who are eager to eat whatever plants we have in the balcony.

When I googled it out of curiosity, turns out it's a Chipotle style Indian restaurant that is based on the premise above. You like you're food all mixed in ? Why then get a curry "tub"!

I really like all my food in a bowl together but I have a daughter who doesn't want her food touching - it is quite challenging to cook for both of us together - my best go is to cook components that she can have a mix them for me but I wish she would come around to bowl food!Johanna GGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594201473931487490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10611609.post-56691310448931684132019-09-01T16:55:56.675-05:002019-09-01T16:55:56.675-05:00Dear Nupur

Bowl meals - heaven! And I recently bought 2 types Barilla pasta made of red lentil ( masoor) and chickpea ( must be besan, right?) flour. You know, our low carb diet has helped us so much.
