It feels good to know, your friends are waiting for your posts. They keep on checking, and one fine day they will ask you, what happened why you are not posting these days... I was looking for your recent work... Well, well.. Here, I am.. Posting again with my Bundt Bakers group...  This Bundt, was created for necessity, but now became my favorite... Couple of things to note is... One you can never taste the tomato in the cake, because of overpowering taste of Cocoa. And 2nd, kid will never get to know, that their are something healthy hidden inside... It becomes a everyday struggle, when kids start picking veggies from their food. Mine hates tomatoes...

Writing is something which, makes me refreshed, and I can share my experience with my friends. Somehow, I feel there is always something to talk about, something to tell, something to share. And this time, I have lot to share. In past few months, lot of things changed, for me. I started working full time. So, my daily schedule completely changed.  Like cooking and writing, designing is my passion too. my passion led me too, an architecture school, and it became my carrier.

Happy from my work, but to make myself completely satisfied, I need to pull some time from here and their and keep on blogging. I moved to another house. So, demanding job, demanding family, cooking, cleaning, setting up the new house and my determination to find out ti
