Hyderabad meets Wilmington

One of my friends from Hyderabad's permanent residence is in Wilmington, DE, only about an hour awy from my parents home. She was kind enough to invite myself and my mother to a ladies lunch where we got to meet a variety of her U.S. friends.After lunch she showed us where the Indian grocery store is so I could get all the ingredients I need to create an Indian feast! Spices and daals galore!








Baking

While in India, I greatly missed my oven, so upon my return I quickly started baking cakes and cookies. Umes sent me some great Indian cake recipes which I made to bring a sweet taste of India to my parents. Here's the banana cake in process!

Exploring Chapel Hill

The spice and herb section of a nearby grocery... we'll be able to make lots of great curries with these! Daals and rices and grains galore! I can't wait until my chef arrives :)
Glorious, glorious produce:
