AmitL: You want to know lucid details like how we burped after the meal? chalo, tumare liye plain water ka intezaam ho jayega.

Leela: I guess they might think, our daughter found her match...finally!

Handa: I graze only on veg stuff.

HOH: Wow..you write a poem whereever you go... modern art? No way! At least I can tell what I intended to cook.

EC: Mere baap... tu zinda hai. good good.

Fairy: That's what even I thought you were trying to say.

Manu: Murder in Thailand.

Food is by far the most creative medium today. From the good ol bread n bhaji to the all new baked baranzy(will make to some menu in the near future), therez are epicureans diggin for each kinda food. Sometimes I wonder if people just love a particular item cuz most people areound em also happen to say they love it. Foodz by far the closest one can get to modern art, you mix and match and yeah, therez some fool who'll munch..chomp chomp :)

Lovely read....

Madhu: Wah wah, you not only managed to advertise your food, you threw in a matrimonial too. Look no further... You have landed on the right spot. There are a lot of young pretty single women who don't know what an atheist libertarian capitalist man is, but would love to have their man cook for them. Pick any... I have manged to hook 4 couples in this blog itself...*modesty doesn't permit me to brag about ther other 2 gay couples I united*

This is the least I can do for you for all the recipes you graciously offered me. I'll throw in a small acknowledgement in my book too. And hey, will surely drop by when I come to Bangalore. I need to palm off all the white pepper.

psst Leela, this is a sure end to all your gastric problems.

Yes, indeed. Notice the little copyright message in the right nav bar. ;)

Of course, being a law hobbyist, I do know a bit about copyright, and copyrights aren't on recipes, but the expression of them.

So you can take my recipes, but if you whack my writing style, I'll sic my lawyers on you. He he!

Thanks for all the praise folks. Now help me find a lady who appreciates an atheist libertarian capitalist man who can cook gourmet food. ;)

breathless: I guess so, It will just be an exotic dish that no one can eat.

Yogz: No, keep the namak with you. Rub some on every freash wound. It builds character, I heard.

Patrix: Again? Now now, this cute baby talk is getting you nowhere.

colors: Does any pumpkin recipe have the use of white pepper? In that case, you can pass some pumpkin to me. How does Parmanu metabolize? Photosynthesis?

:-): For your comfort, those were not English words, it was hi-fi code language. Maybe your driver would understand.

Rash: Remember eat with a fork, not with a straw.

Fairy: Has Padma Lakshmi copyrighted her style? Now need to see if Madhu copyrighted his recipes.

Wandy: what makes you think I didnt know how to cook and Pi was feeding on grass? Last time I spoke to you, remember I was making banana curry?

Patrix: conviniently forgot all the dosas I fed you with!!! Do u remember my face at least? all you remember is Yogu.

Leela: I have bear spray..you can make do with that. White pepper is not even strong as I hear.

Ze Madhu: Thanks for dispelling my readers' preconceived notions about the various ingredients. Jeez thats a lot of work with peppercorn. Just use less blackpepper, maybe. Anyway, I will take your word for it. Also, 5 leaves of Basil costs around 3 dollars.

Something I found out last week, white pepper is the same as black pepper, but with the black stuff removed. Its used if you don't want unsightly black stuff in your soup, for example. Spread the knowledge man.
