I have a long weekend + Monday holiday because of Dussehera so I am going to try out your recipe of pesto pasta with spinach because I adore the flavour of spinach......... 😆

Level II will come up .......... you don't need to hold your breath, it will be on cooking. The questions will be very easy since I am a hopeless cook....... 😳

Helllo Varsha..doing good...😆... Hello Resham!! 😆

Chalo answer these: Yes boss! 😲😆

Why do u say 2 & 2 makes 4...and nt 22? When did I say that? 😆 JK...well, I don't actually say this because in school I remember one time the teacher saying that "and" means a decimal, so when people say 2 and 2, they are actually saying 2.2! 😲😆

If you say sky is the limit then wht shd be ur actual limit? As far as I can get! 😆 I don't like to set boundaries of limitations for myself because I feel too constrained.

Wht does these proverbs actually mean and complete them:

Time and tide ...wait for none! It means like we cannot control the tide, we cannot control time. We all have to keep moving along with time and get going on things.

Sow shall ...Are you talking about the phrase "As ye sow, so shall ye reap"? It's a Biblical saying meaning "What goes around comes around". So basically be careful of what you do to other because it will come back to haunt you later! 😆

...........was nt built in one day...Rome was not built in one day...meaning, great things take time to built, so you should give everything it's just and respected time.

Whts the time right now...It was 2:32 PM when I started this, but then everything went POOF! 😆 Now's 2:44 PM.

Whts the most you like abt urself? I'm very hardworking!

Whts the most u dislike abt urself? I procrastinate a lot...🤔 Which then leads to a lot of stress...I have a test on Monday, but I'm sitting here on IF like I have nothing to do! 😆

One thing u never want to change...My values and morals because these are what make a person whole! 😃

One thing which u wd like to change...My ability to cope with stress...if I didn't get so stressed about things, I'd be be even more successful at them! 😆

Really good answers! I know what you mean about learning to cope with stress...I am reading this book called "Living in Harmony", one saying in there really stuck in my head which helps me cope with stress: "Life is tough, I am tougher"...hope this helps you too...

Now tell me how do I get to enjoy & love cooking because frankly, I absolutely hate it, it is such a chore for me!

2. What is the Indian name for the sacred basil? Tulsi...you wanna know how I know this? 😆 Well, I was visiting India, and my dadi was watching KSBKBT. The lady's name was Tulsi, so I asked my mom "What's Tulsi mean? 😕" She told me "Basil" I was like "So Ekta named her lead basil?" 🤣 I was laughing a lot, but my mom told that it was a name and to stop laughing! 😆😆

3. Name two resins that are widely used in Indian cooking? Hing is one, but I don't know the other! 🤔😆

4. What is the substance that is burnt in poojas but is also used as flavouring in our food?Ghee

5. If apricot when dried turns out to be Jardaloo, what does plum turn out to be when dried? Eww...I don't like dried fruit...I don't know..It is dates? 😆 Noo...those are dried to become prunes! 🤣 You got me here! 😲

Thanks for this quote!! i love reading quotes and stuff, so yeah, it helps! 😃

How to enjoy cooking....hmmm...well, I first recommend start with trying to make something simple that you like, and then being innovative with it. Like, you take Maggi noodles for instance, and add onions, tomatoes, garlic, chilies, and peas to make it taste even better. Or, on grilled cheese, you can add onions, tomatoes, salt and black pepper, and those jalepenoes from the jar and make it a little jazzed up. Simple things like this are easy, and make the food taste different too, and then you'll be happy with your efforts, and hopefull will be willing to experiement more! Hopefully I helped you out! 😆

Thanks yaar - I have a typical Indian hubby who loves his roti-sabji...LOL...he doesn't like noodles (my daughter loves them)...so it is a constant irritation on trying to decide what to cook! But I do like your ideas a lot, I just need to convert hubby..LOL!!
