STRAWBERRIES ON A ROll…Nice ‘n’ Light Dessert
On the STRAWBERRY: “Doubtless God could have made a better berry, but doubtless God never did.”Dr William Butler, 17th century English writer STRAWBERRY SWISS ROLL A delicious & light dessert which I made a while ago when I wasn’t quite camera crazy & ‘blogged on’.

CLICK: November 2007…NOODLES
‘It is the sweet, simple things of life which are the real ones after all.‘Laura Ingalls Wilder Am pushing my limits…Between dropping the kids off to school, and now returning to get them back (they come back early today grrrrrrrrr…), I cooked, imagined, clicked,downloaded & am now trying to post.

No one knows anything.”Anna Quindlen SMOKED BUTTER PANEER CURRY…‘Paneer-e-Dhungaar’ is what I like to call it! This recipe is the result of trying to keep the dinner table smiling with eager kids. Here’s a nice change to the regular Indian style cottage cheese/paneer curry. It combines the best of paneer tikka (which has a smoked flavor) & butter paneer. I made this up one day when the kids were losing interest at the dinner table, and I had paneer on hand which I wanted…

BUTTERFLIES…everyone deserves a little sunshine!!
“Beautiful and graceful, varied and enchanting, small but approachable, butterflies lead you to the sunny side of life. And everyone deserves a little sunshine. “ Jeffrey Glassberg The past few days have seen a nice change in the weather and have brought forth plenty of happy butterflies. I love to sit with a book in the garden, watching these fascinating creatures flutter around. The brown one on top, a little one (an inch!) has my favourite colours…beige/khaki & black . The one below , was discovered by my son, fast asleep in the Currypatta tree (Botanical name – Murraya koenigi) in the backyard…the colours reminded me of Halloween! “I’ve watched…
