Carrot Halwa

Image
One of my goal for this vacation is to learn cooking and eat a lot. Yesterday was one of that day to achieve my goal. I cooked carrot halwa. I didn't take any help from my mom except asking her to find cardamom powder and wash plate. It took me around one hour or more to cook the dessert. It wasn't a flop, everyone enjoyed every bit of it. Even I liked the taste. I prepared this in the evening so lighting wasn't good, hence I used candy camera to take the photo. If you liked how it looks, scroll down to see for the recipe. Keep in mind- I am not a professional cook nor do I cook daily. These are my experiments so you can make slight adjustments as you wish. INGREDIENTS Carrot (I prepared for 4) Ghee 1-2 tablespoon Milk Sugar  Cardamom powder Raisin  Cashew PREPARATION Heat the nonstick pan and add ghee to it. As the ghee get heated add grated carrot to it.  Mix it well. keep the flame in medium and c...

Back to home for 3 weeks

As u can guess from the title, I am back home after approx 4 months. U people have no idea how happy I feel about being back at home. Most of u might think I am crazy being homesick for not being home for few months. But I felt crazy depressed for not being home for that long. There are few reasons why I felt the way I did. I usually run back home every 2 months. But this time, it didn't happen bcoz of the back to back exams. I gave my external exam which was so stressful for me and lot of us, due to lack of study holidays that we got bcoz of our never-ending practical works. I gave 3 theory exams and 6 practical exams, so relieved that it got over now. It's super cold in Karnataka, but couldn't enjoy a bit of it. So this time, coming home was so exciting since we were having hard time in college and hostel.  I planned to write the post while traveling, and to be honest it went well till my last guy friend got out. After seeing him off I went to update my post realising I...

Just another day

When I came home for vacation, I was hoping to fulfill few of my wishes. One among those was to write a blog a day. Now that is not possible since my bsnl net connection is weak. We have complained to the concerned authority hoping to resolve our problem sooner. Now that is told, I am writing this blog in LibreOffice, writing before everything disappears from my mind. Audio of Vedic mantra with English narration is chanting in the background giving me a pleasant and open mind to write this blog. The climate is pleasant, it's been raining heavily. It's afternoon and the sun is nowhere to be seen. It seems like evening. I don't know its just me or others experience the same. Rain makes me sad. Looking at it makes me so sad without no reason. I am sad for no reason. I know it sounds stupid. But I do feel like I lost something, even I find it weird. It's been a long time since I wanted to learn driving. Something or the other always comes in the way. Now t...

HOME SWEET HOME

hey hey guys a good news.  Reached home at 9 pm day before yesterday(i was planning to post this on 1st aug). Feeling so good. Its over 5 and half months since i came  home. i took a brief bath and a heavy meal on the night i reached. Got to say that, my mom cook better than anyone i know. In my hostel i used to solely depend on biscuits. To be honest, man!!! now i just hate to say the word biscuits. i tried different companies to keep myself alive. As the days passed by, each biscuit packet i bought stayed with me longer than any books i read. i travelled via mysuru route to kerala. After the commencement of the college, its the first time i am traveling approx 700 km just with a friend. usually there used to be minimum of 20 of us traveling south. Due to the wide gap between dates of each candidate appearing for the exam, we had to travel in different dates. I am always in the last roll numbers.My heart skips a beat whenever the professors ask question from behind...

Weird Dream

I started my day reading an article about an elephant rescue in the newspaper, the rescue wasn't successful since after hours of struggling the elephant couldn't withstand all those pressure it went through and it finally had to die. Anyways!! the  news came with lots of photos and it almost covered a whole lot of space. This news sort of fascinated me due to the lot of importance the editor had given to this particular news, which i talked about to a couple of people. The story actually starts here. It was 3 in the afternoon and after studying for a while i was so sleepy and i thought i would take a nap and wake after an hour or so and i kept the alarm on. After correct one hour alarm went on and i woke up, but due to the warm air and tiredness and as any others would do, i woke up and put the alarm off and went to sleep. And this is when all those stupid  things happened.......... Once upon a time there lived a girl who has absolutely no idea how to drive a car but she d...
