Hey Skep.. she is doing the final touches.. I think you should just go sleep...I'll ask her to come here asap, so that you can leave as early as possible..

Yes, the episodes are building up on each other beautifully.. and the new pics have us in a total swoon !!

But more than the pics, its the poignancy and pain which had us these past three days, including today..

Raspberry Muffins with Cacao Nib~

I personally think that Raspberry should be crowned the King of all Berries!
Why Raspberry you ask?
Think succulent….luscious Raspberry…..Think MAAN!!!…eerrrrr….Yum Yum Yum!!!!
Lip-Smakcing…Juicy….& Very Mouth watering..…..Hmmmmmmmm!!!
& if't that's not enough reason for you to love them (think Skippy)
Raspberries are ALSO very skillful & deft…..*wicked grin*
Not ONLY do they look & taste luscious, they make great baking commodity! TanTaNan!
Whole or smushed….….*THUD*…..errr oh ok so where are we..…..
Haan, as I was saying…. Framboises brises: as you may have guessed, are raspberries that are smushed……
I always keep a bag of frozen Framboises in the freezer, ALWAYS!!
Like a bird in the hand & one in the bush types!!!!*wink*
But somehow one look at them today & they reminded me (horrified) like broken-bleeding MAAN's heart! *sad music*

Now, they do say, A thing of Beauty is a joy forever!
I realize just now that I seem to go by a different rule, I say A Thing of Beauty is MAAN forever!
How so, you ask??
Think Perfection….Think MAAN!!
Think Magnificent Profile-Eyes-Lips- Hands…..…..Think MAAN!!
Better DON'T think….just go on MAAN-Trance!
*Ok ladies STOP swoooooning*

Getting back to the chore in hand & looking at the current state-of-affairs, I decided to Bake the muffins with Raspberry & Cacao Nibs.
Coz I feel in this recipe, MAAN's character is more like the cacao nibs (clats de fves de cacao in French),
They are simply tiny bits of roasted cocoa beans, not sweetened or processed but RAW-FERVENT-UNRESTRAINED!!
*THUD*
I have always loved Cocao Nibs…….
The texture, the aroma, the flavor packed up in those tiny flecks………MAGNIFIQUE!
Just as the Finesse & Polish packed in the power & sheer potency of MAAN's Character.
A handful of them & they turn around the whole ESSENCE of the product!
It's ambrosial when mixed with sugar..….Bitter & sharp when left ALONE……..*sigh*
Just Like Max-MAAN again!

Add to this, some yogurt, think CUPID -Devtaa here..…with his arrows of leharate duppatta…
ever slippery Floors, Babaji-ka-aashirvaad, Mali-uncles giving away of secrets, Dadi's intervention,
lots of MAHIIIIIIIIII Music overdose. Though what's a lil extra music in the grand scheme to make
things more exciting & lending a delightful moistness to the finished product..Ohlalalalala!

Last but not the least, throw in some Sugar, Bake & VIOLA….
You have the Impeccable Product..…..delicieux….. hmmmm!

As for the raspberry and cacao nib pairing, it is working particularly well, their flavors melding
together harmoniously, one subtle & intoxicating us with it's decadence & one jolting & numbing
our senses with it's staggering flavor & without stepping on each other's toes or competing for fevered
attention of each other, just like the many MOODs of MAAN….……….*Sigh*

Imagine if this easy-breezy recipe DID NOT have the Stimulating Raspberry (read MAAN) Or
It's ambrosial counterpart, Cacoa Nibs (read MAAN-Again, bless my LINEAR dedication) this
recipe would be Oh-So- BORING!
So ladies, what are you waiting for…….take a bite for a quick trip to Swarglok & say Tres Bien!
Bon Appetit!
Love Always
