Chikie for Dinner?

Hi Shak! Hi Div. Shak, what a wonderful human being you are. Its so kind of you to do the research on baking a rainbow cake. Divya must be very proud to have you as a cousin.I would love to try it though I feel too lazy to get the procedure done. Hmprh! Nevermind then. Anyways, I'm fine. Varun's good too. He's been up to naughty bits nowadays. But as far as babies go, he's a darling.

I made chicken rice a few days ago during one of the weekends. It came out perfect and Muhun Chitapa loved it too. I wish to thank Eswari chinnama for the recipe and I would love to share it with you but I'm gonna gamble on the measurements coz I dun hav an exact amount measurement myself. Ooops...Varun's crying I gtg. I'll be back...

Dum Biryani- Saunthala's Way!

Yo gals! Here are pix of mami's dum mutton biryani! It tasted so good for a first timer and it was actually relatively easy to make. She took a mere 1 hour to finish it. She cooked the masala mutton first. Then partially cooked the rice in the cooker. Halfway, she took some rice out, added the masala mutton in and returned the rice to the cooker and finished cooking it. The dalicha was done separately. If you want the full recipe, pls call mami at +6591086990. Cheers!

Huh? Rainbow Cake recipe?

Divya, I think you can use the normal butter cake recipe but you gotta separate it in batches so u can add colouring to each batch and bake each layer of cake in a different color. Then simply glue them back using icing in different colours. That'll work for rainbow cake. Might I say it'll be a lotta work but you'll be soooo happy n proud. This is the final product. I took this pix with my hp, it's clearer. Me looking for next recipe now. I gotta go to the library to borrow more books. Also books on indian cooking since i'm cooking for chitapa more often now too. Hmm... maybe I'll go later in the night around 8 pm. I hope Chitapa can drive me there, saves me the hassle of public transport....let's see...my mom likes coffee cake though she's been asking me for Orange cake. Wow! This book even has a recipe for Chocolate Guiness cake!

Varun's fine dear. He's desperate to talk now so he keeps spitting saliva everywhere. Most times, his face is covered with sticky saliva n he seems content! A Real Boy he is, he hates when anyone kisses him on the face.

Div, I'm wondering if you're really gonna try baking it so lemme know k?
Shak, what's ur next venture babe? I'm gonna go to the library to look for more choices.
