Long time since I have stepped here Manisha. Happy New Year (belated), liked the Kenyan write-up. Would love to try Irio recipe some time soon.

Stumbled on to your post from my friend Planet Sue's blog. I like this post and am going to try the Irio recipe.

Your pic is truuuuuly scrumptious (see the film Chitty Chitty Bang Bang for reference), but what I am most-astonished by is that *you* *now* *like* RHUBARB?! What is up with that and when was the moment of enlightenment and does this mean that a ripe-banana-and-jackfruit smoothie is on its way too?

Tasted like you'd licked a sweaty armpit?? Hysterical!!!

You've had such an interesting life, Manisha. I look forward to the Memories round-up.

Let's be "ladies who lunch" again soon!

Too active on FB? Good for you. I still have to figure out how it works. Guess I'll get there now that I've figured Twitter!!!

Lived and studied in Kenya for about a year but don't recollect Irio. Sounds good though.

Belated wishes for a wonderful year ahead.

I found your food blog going through a few links. Glad I ran into it. Didn’t know that the food blog/recipe community was so big online. I love your posts!

I was wondering if you would like to exchange links. I’ll drop yours on my site and you drop mine on yours. Email at ramendays@yahoo.com or stop by my site and drop a comment. Let me know if you would like to do a link exchange.

Cheers,

Jaya, she was farming for a while! But, thankfully, I think she decided to sell it so that she had more time for the water cooler! :D

I am a very reluctant FB user, but it had brought me in touch with many of my school and college friends. And they don't seem to mind too much that I have rarely anything to add. But, I know I can get in touch in a moment if I need to. One can choose to be as active as one wishes and that 'unfriend' thing is pretty useful too, it seems!

Oh, yeah - forgot that we have a special recipe here this time! Will surely try! Honestly, I do have all the ingredients for a change!

Love the old photo. The Irio looks very simple and colorful. A lovely post to start the New Year! Thanks for coming out of your hybernation ;)

Are you in specs on the right side of the photograph? Gosh I can just imagine how the memories came flooding back. Thoroughly enjoyed this post.

Happy New Year to you and the family!

I love that you're posting foods that conjure up memories for you! Those are, even at their most humble, the foods that capture our hearts.

Jambo! An ex-African Indian - hah! Someone else who I can identify with, or who possibly also has had to define herself to many a "But what nationality are you?Where exactly are you from?"

2009-12-29T22:36:23.550-07:00

Can't complain about FB cause I am not on your friends list but I do complain about the ones who play Farmville and load up the page with 'ugly ducklings' and their adoption notices. I am assuming that is not what you fill up your wall with.
Having a hard time imagining Irio's taste. But I am looking forward to Memories roundup.
Wishing you and your family a very happy and prosperous new year. :)

Irio sounds yummy. Connecting up with friends is good for you then why be apologetic Manisha. Imagine the power of the virtual water cooler, it is not possible to recreate it in real life with friends scattered in different geos. There was a reunion recently in Mumbai and I could not make it. I felt very bad. The gals met after 2 decades! I got to see the pix immediately. More power to the Social Media. Cheers!

I'm so looking forward to the Memories round-up.

And you had long hair :) The same specs though? :D I remember someone on FB asked for bhajias. I thought they were desi Bhajias and was quite surprised to see someone non Indian (if I'm right) ask for them!

Also, I remembered you a lot yesterday when I watched Invictus.

Plus, you knew me long enough to add me on FB :D Plus I love your FB activity and you are so fun/witty. So, don't bother!

I think I should've written you an email.
