Like most everyone lately, we’ve been a little startled by how grocery prices have gone up. Cabbage is still pretty cheap, though! This is cabbage varai — delicious and healthy, just the thing to round out a plate of rice and curry. And did I mention that it’s both easy and fast? 🙂 Cabbage Varai […]

Okay, I’m not sure this is the most practical serving board — I wanted to experiment with dried apple slices, and they are definitely somewhat bumpy.

Composed a Sri Lankan-style (sort of, anyway) trail mix. Pistachios, cashews, sultanas, candied ginger, ruby chocolate. Apparently I even want my trail mix to be pretty. 🙂.

I’m so happy that I can get idli-sambar delivered to my house, which has never been possible before (per previous note, there are a lot more Indian options on Grubhub for us than there used to be!). I was a little hesitant to try getting masala dosa delivered, because I wasn’t sure it’d travel well

I’m at Sprout working my shift, and it’s pretty quiet, since it’s Easter, so I’m hoping to post the rest of my Miami pics, in between trying to catch up on e-mail backlog. So much e-mail backlog, sigh. Some food pics: • I made bombatoast and bacon for breakfast one morning; the kids were delighted
