What a nice thing to say, Strider! And ditto back. It's great to put a face with a name, and a voice behind the words. Indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi_Zep_Fan87 Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 (edited) It's been a while since I last feasted on some good old fashioned Indian Namkeen! Haldiram's is my ultimate go-to brand for Namkeen. This brand has been around since 1937. The quality of the Namkeen and the flavours are simply stunning!

Tomorrow, I will use the sugar in my coffee and think I'll use the spice on grilled pork ribs. Guess what? When passing the Royal Orleans hotel last weekend, I spotted a spice store. It was closed on Sunday but I looked it up online and it looks very similar to Spice Station. Can't wait to check it out soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, we've realized that life is short. You may as well eat what you like! Or, we've given up. Whichever one works better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Posted October 1, 2016 Author Share Posted October 1, 2016 (edited) Dd, every city should have a Spice Station or some equivalent. I was just talking to a friend this morning and guess what? She is eating pancakes this morning too! Alas, I abstained from joining the pancake celebration. Breakfast was yogurt with pumpkin granola and pomegranate seeds. Orange juice and water. Maybe tomorrow I will indulge in some pancakes...or french toast. Edited October 1, 2016 by Strider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally agree and have had the same experience of pancakes every weekend while my kids were growing up and then pancake strike until just recently. Life is much too short to live without pancakes. I use yogurt in the batter, add fresh blueberries and a few mini chocolate chips, and life is good. Strider, I include French toast on the list of things life is too short to live without.
