List of formatting corrections that needs to be done by this Friday.
After struggling with MS Word for 4 hours, I called J and made him come home early. He is working on this thing now and all I can hear is, "Oh dammit!", "Insert the page number you moron", "which fcking person designed this fcking thing?,"uhhh..I hate it, I hate this stupid fcking thing" and other such colourful phrases. Technical matter is so much easier to write/edit than disgusting margin/page number/figure only 2" by 3" and other formatting crap ugh!
A happy news (nope not preggers), I made Handvo! Woohoo my first ever Gujarati dish. I pestered poor Arch some 2-3 times, had doubts all stages! Like a proud girl I say, my first Handvo :D clap, clap, clap! Thanks Arch.
/She asked me bake it in a muffin pan but I was out of paper liners and the last thing I wanted to do is wash that muffin pan. So I baked it in a 9" pan and made a aluminum foil tent over it :P. She made mint chutney so I made mint chutney :D
Looking at ur pics, I immediately recognized that it's yummiest piece of Handvo. :) Such a lovely and healthy snack and dinner/lunch for me. Wait for my version too. ;) :)
ReplyDeletei always dream of making one of those gujju things. even bought eno salts for the dhokla. never got around to it, though..
ReplyDeletethe mint chunty looks yum.. and sesame.. anything seasoned with sesame has GOT to taste good!
