• Baking has always been therapeutic for me and been especially invigorating while dealing with hectic WFH schedules during these lockdown times. It’s something that I look forward to after a crazy work day / week and a way to truly disconnect. This weekend, tried my hand in baking these citrus flavoured scones. Scones with clotted cream transport me to bygone times spent reading Enid Blyton books. Oh.. All those Famous Five, Secret Seven and Malory Towers club meetings, midnight feasts and adventures ! Scones was just one of the numerous exotic foods in these books that left my mind wondering and mouth watering. These scones surprisingly quite an easy bake, came out crumbly and soft. Served them with some cream and jam.

  • Haven’t put up a post in almost two years, but then thought this one deserved a relatively more permanent spot than the 24 hours story. All what you see are made from scratch – Brioche buns 😇 (Oh yes ! Baked in house by yours truly. Swipe ➡️ to see the texture), Soft-boiled Eggs, Pink Hollandaise Sauce ( It is Pink ! Blame the poor lighting and my even poorer photography skills 🤦🏻‍♀️), Hash browns -air fried to minimize the guilt factor, Garlic mushrooms and cherry tomatoes. Recipe credits: Brioche Buns and Pink Hollandaise Sauce- Recipe from Le15 e-cookbook with my own tweaks. @le15india @poojadhingra Hash Browns- Veena’s Curryworld @veenascurryworld. ************************************************************#breakfast #eggs #hollandaise #brioche#hashbrowns #airfrying #graduatingtobreadbaking

  • So here I am back with a post exactly 6 months since my last one. Well, I could blame it on being busy with work, household stuff and life in general, but the fact is that I was just way too lazy to click a picture, edit it and then add a description and further add captions ! . . . . However currently I am a mommy/ wife on holiday considering the little one is with her grandparents for her summer break and hubby off on a work trip. So I am now getting frequently asked if I am getting lonely or bored ? Infact I must say on the contrary, inspite of me having to work full time and getting home way past 6 pm, I still feel like I am on a holiday ! Considering I don’t have to do any meal planning, packing lunch boxes, dealing with meltdowns and in general not doing any adulting. So now most days once I reach home, I barely kick off my shoes, plop onto the sofa and indulge in some trashy television or Netflix, spend way too much time on the phone, indulge in some takeaway or a bowl of cheese Maggi. And you know what I can’t say that I am bored even after 10 days ! 😎 . . . . Holding on to the last few precious days of the summer break before the 5 am alarms start going off and all the craziness kicks in.. . . . . #momonholiday #mom #solobreakfast #metime #eggsbenedict

  • Today marks my last day in this lovely city of Montpellier and in France 🇫🇷 . . . Had a dream of a week by progressing so much in French, meeting some splendid people from across the world and eating some delicious food. . . Was also lucky to have experienced the varied moods of Montpellier, which portrayed me the rainy days, freezing days, sunny days and even snowy days ! . . The time I spent here will always remain as one of the most memorable moments in my life. . . . Time to head back to reality and work hard to make more moments like this happen very soon.. . . Au revoir France and Merci Beaucoup ! . . . . . #montpellier #france #french #europe #student #vivelafrance #traveldeeper #architecture #qatar #qatarblogger #blogger #solotravel

  • This is the “Brioche Aux Pralines”, a sweet treat that Lyon is reputed for. It’s basically a brioche (sweet bread) filled and topped with pink pralines, which are coloured, caramelized almonds. Extremely sweet but perfect for a midday snack as it energizes you after you have walked all across the cobbled streets of the city. . . . . . . . . . . . #sweettreats #brioche #praline #pink #frenchbakery #yum #yummy #foodstagram #instayum #foodporn #nomnom #foodie #lyon #france #frenchcuisine #europe #foodblogger #lyonnaise #yum #yummy #foodstagram #instayum #foodporn #nomnom #foodie

  • We visited @thecheesecakefactoryme couple of weeks back and sampled these loaded Nachos with chicken. Hit that sweet spot ! With the weekend around the corner, like every week there’s a constant debate going on in my head- How much to eat out and how much to cook? 😂 So what are you indulging in this weekend - home cooked meals or eating out? #nachos #weekendindulgence #weekend #yum #yummy #foodstagram #instayum #foodporn #nomnom #foodie
