My gift from Foodie Blogroll
Sunday, April 20, 2014
Today morning when I was cooking some one knocked my door. I opened the door, there was a mail man with a big box. I have no idea what was it, I was just surprised (thought for a second that, it may be my hubbys surprise gift for me!!!!!!LOL just kidding). Eagerly opened the box then I remembered that it was the one I ordered with Cultures for health gift coupon. For more events and contest updates keep visiting and follow FOOD BLOG NEWS . I already told you all about my gift coupon. Here is the link where the winners are announced. You all can participate.

I just participated in the foodie blogroll contest giveaway , just commented about the home made yogurt later I was given a notice on the same day that I won the contest, after few days they sent me the gift card number through which I can shop online in cultures for health. I just like this vegetable slicer, was planning to buy this since long time, Im happy with it. Looking very beautiful with fine quality. Thanx to foodie blogroll and cultures for health.

Hello from Little Rock – Im So Busy Its Scary!
Saturday, March 29, 2014
Well, I was hoping to have a new video up today, but there just wasnt any time. We put in a full day getting all the scrips finalized and recipes prepped for the eight videos Im here to film for Kelloggs Snackpicks.com (here are a couple iPhone pics of the studio). The next couple days dont look to get any easier, as tomorrow we begin shooting at 7 AM, and the same on Wednesday.
So, the best I can do is a frighteningly quick Halloween-themed re-run recipes post. To make it an even lamer post, other than the cheese fingers below, I dont even really have any typical Halloween recipes, but all these could work well if your planning a party and looking for some ideas. Just click on the title for the original post with ingredients and more info. Boo!! (yes, that was a double entendre)Penne Pasta with Neck Sauce – Perfect for that vampire-themed party!
Pumpkin Brulee - Because if it has pumpkin in it, its cool for Halloween!
"Severed Fingers" Cheese Sticks – So wrong, yet so right!

Things I Bought That I Love And Other Things I Want to Copy From Mindy Kaling
Wednesday, February 26, 2014
{Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? And Other Concerns, Mindy Kaling}
When I identify someone I deem to be the [fill in the blank adjective here] version of me, I immediately make up elaborate stories in my mind about what great friends we would be.
Case in point: Oh, Chelsea Handler? Shes like the alcoholic version of me. Were great friends because we like to retell stories from our childhood using superfluous profanity and embellished "truths." Lady Gaga? Shes totally the musically-gifted version of me. Were really close because we share a love of glitter, acting like models, and gays. (I could say the same thing about RuPaul.)
So, when I learned that Mindy Kaling was writing a book called "Is Everything Hanging Out Without Me? And Other Concerns" I was obviously all like "holy hell! She IS me!!!" I mean, a quick look at the book jacket tells you pretty much everything youre in for inside: pink, a pensiveness that could be mistaken for insecurity, and a reference to Toddlers & Tiaras. Im sorry, have we met??
As I read page 143, I literally dogeared it, it was so me. Like, physically, folded the upper corner of the page over just for future reference, it was so dead on. It reads:
"The Internet also makes it extraordinarily difficult for me to focus. One small break to look up exactly how almond milk is made, and four hours later Im reading about the Donner Party and texting all my friends: DID YOU GUYS KNOW ABOUT THE DONNER PARTY AND HOW MESSED UP THAT WAS? TEXT ME BACK SO WE CAN TALK ABOUT IT!
I found my productive writing-to-screwing-around ratio to be one to seven. So, for every eight-hour day of writing, there is only one good productive hour of work being done. The other seven hours are preparing for writing: pacing around the house, collapsing cardboard boxes for recycling, reading the DVD extras pamphlet from the BBC Pride & Prejudice, getting snacks lined up for writing, and YouTubing toddlers who learned the Single Ladies dance. I know. Isnt that horrible?"Oh, did you forget you werent reading my writing?? Yeah, I had the same reaction.
So for those of you who dont know who in the hell Im gushing about yet, Mindy Kaling is a comedy writer, actress, and occassional girl group Subtle Sexuality member. Put simply, you probably know her best as superficial, ditzy customer service rep Kelly Kapoor from The Office.
What I like about Mindys book (oh yeah, were on a first name only basis) is its construction. While she follows something of a linear storyline, beginning with her awkward chubby years in high school crushing on a mean Sengalese boy named Duante Diallo, following her through her college years at Dartmouth where she meets two of her best and perhaps most defining friends, and finally her present day gig as a big time comedy writer, she tells her story in more of a short story, essay, or her own coined-term pleist (a piece with a list-y quality) kind of way. I also love the titles of each chapter. Do you ever notice the titles of my blog posts?? God, I hope Im not pining over clever blog titles for 27 minutes-plus on average for no good reason. A title that encapsulates simultaneously what youre writing about and is also just obscure enough to further pique your interest is an art form in itself. "Revenge Fantasies While Jogging" and "Why Do Men Put Their Shoes on So Slowly" are personal favorites of mine.
Beyond all of that though, "Is Everyone Hanging Out With Me?" is just a fun read. I laughed basically every 4 and a half minutes. And when it was over? Im fairly certain I shed a single tear. And then I suffered a temporary, but no less devastating, bout of depression. But the good news is, I can continue to get my Mindy-fix right on her own very blog "Things I Bought That I Love," which is exactly what it sounds like. So in the spirit of Mindy, I thought Id share with you a thing I bought that I love: So Delicious Coconut Milk Egg Nog.
