You will ask me why this is an important picture. I will tell you a small story – when I moved to Bangalore 6 years ago, I had no plans to expand or even do anything much beyond what I was doing , with Ovenderful. Then my baby was born. I continued with my full…

Happy Mondays and Eggless Wholewheat Baked Empanadas
And Monday was closed with a bang ! The Wholewheat Empanadas that I packed for my son’s snack were a hit with not just him but also his friends 🙂 He has come back with requests for more of them and soon. What a lovely and healthy tiffin snack option this is – will upload…

What makes us happy & Wholewheat Spinach Cottage Cheese Quiche
A couple of conference calls related to work on the project front and the Ovenderful front , a quick visit to the swimming pool to take the little boy whose holidays have started in full flow , a little walk on the way for his little sister, a set of articles written and submitted…
Gearing up to start 2018 and the Wholewheat Coconut Almond cake
Gearing up to start 2018 The cupboard can definitely be cleaner but that’s the best I can manage with a 5 year old and a 6 month old acquiring new personalities in 2018 – while one has discovered that she has a voice and she must use it at the highest pitch possible , the…
Of seeing joy in simple things…and Wholewheat Oats Jeera(Cumin) Kasoori Methi Crackers
One of the ‘big’ super-special outings my son and I shared while staying in Richmond Town, was to suddenly plan a visit to Cubbon Park ( The above picture is not of Cubbon Park, but another park in Wellington 🙂 ) . The serenity of the park especially on a week-day would re-energize me while…
Football Buddies and Semolina Orange/Kinu Cupcakes
There is a moment of calm at the point where a super tiring day ends and a sleepless night begins – that moment is this picture for me. Football buddies don’t need to have the same shoes or shoes at all. They don’t need to speak the same language. They don’t need to wear similar…
Healthy baking exists….and a delicious Wholewheat Apple-Coconut cake ( with coconut sugar)

Uncharted adventures, not milestones..and a Wholewheat Eggless, Butter-free Chocolate Almond Cake
This is not a regular Mother’s Day post – I am using this post to simply share my thoughts again – thoughts that I shared when my son ( and I !) turned 6 months old. More than anything else – what is exactly the same as I re-read this piece from May 2013, is…
Shifting Lives and Zero-Fat Vegan Baked Spinach Wholewheat Sticks with Black Sesame and Chives
How would you sum up 11 months of stay in a place – moved in, settled in, moved out ? That’s pretty much the way I would have thought probably a decade ago. But today it seems like even in those short 11 months, one can fit in so much into one’s life in a…
The Wholewheat-Oats Buttermilk Bread with Gooseberry Jam
I am not really a night person ( or not any longer!) in most cases – The only thing that I love doing before sleeping off is reading. And that was the case for a long time. Even now, given the fact that I have to get up very early I try to plan a…
Scaling up a venture & Wholewheat Chocolate Strawberry-Apricot Cake
How did you start your “venture” ? If you are a little bit like me, which means someone who takes it slow and steady ( and focuses on the l0w-investment channels !) then its likely you might have followed the arduous route of trying whatever little you understood of social media marketing. That would mean –…
