Hello Everyone,
I am not very happy writing this post today. But it is better to concentrate on one thing at a time . So here I am taking a short blogging break. I wont be very active in blog hoping and posting new posts too. This is because of my language classes which run for a longer time and even the levels get tougher. Also, lots of other things which will be keeping me off the computer.
About the guest posts, yes, they will be on, barring this week off. From next week I will be putting up the guest posts again as scheduled. I know all my fellow bloggers will keep supporting the guest bloggers and me too during this period.
So dear friends I hope to get back soon with all of you and enjoy the yummy dishes (I know I am going to miss a lot during this break 
). I will try my best to find out time, visit blogs and reply to everyone as and when I can. I am keeping my fingers crossed that I will be available on FB to reply you guys over there.
Thanks so much again.
Take care all and will miss u guys a lot…

Hello Everyone,
This would be a little emotional post. The day deserves this.
Three years back today I married Girish. I remember the first glimpse of his when I reached our wedding hall. What a feeling. Our’s is a love marriage with a little filmy twist in it. Won’t go into details (tooo many to write), but had a little tough time getting through and finally when it was decided as 24th 2006, would be the day when we got married, I was the most happiest person in this whole world. A sign of relief and the anxiety to spend my life with person I love the most in the whole world was shown on my face till the marriage day. The smile has never disappeared (smile).
Since then it’s been a great time. A lot of ups and downs that we have been through, sad moments and the happiest have taught us well and made us stronger. Living by our own self isn’t easy but that we both have been doing since long. Together it made us stronger everyday. We faced situations we were not ready for, but only because we were with each other it gave us strength. Shifting to Pune from Mumbai wasn’t easy as well. Living all my life in Mumbai and shifting all over to Pune was very difficult to adjust. Lifestyle, people, area and other things were very different. But we faired well. We have been our own friends, companion and guests when we were alone, bit sad and unhappy. We have been always there to cheer each other.
Soon, I started pursuing German language lessons. The routine began in a nice way. Girish got busy in his freelancing again. And time started to fly. Within four months I got my first level results and I stood first. That was one of the moments I would never forget. Time went by, I turned the calendar and it was August. It was then that I started blogging. I remember the first time I registered on wordpress, foodlyrics was born. It’s been a great time since then. Recipe after recipe, I have been in this mesmerizing world for ever. I have met some amazing friends and bloggers like me. I can relate to a lot of them now. Recently, I have purchased my own domain and foodlyrics became official.
Today is a very important and cherished day of my life. Today we are 3 years old. I wanted to share my joy with you all who have become a part of life.
Thank you Girish for being a part of my life!!

I saw this movie yesterday. I am so in love with the movie. It felt so close to my heart and my own story somehow. The best thing that connected them has also connected me to them and people all over the world, food, cooking and in the case of both of them their book and blog respectively.
I could relate so much of the movie to my life. At moments I thought it was my own story. It’s so important for a person to keep doing what he desires or he has decided to complete. No matter what hurdles or obstacles come in our way, we must never loose hope or willingness to walk on the path we have chosen. Lot of times in the beginning you shall face problems such as money, family ties, stress, fatigue etc. but we need to solve every issue and become stronger. Without loosing faith and self confidence we must patiently keep on working hard to reach our goals. No matter how big or small they are. It might be a 10 step walk for a small kid or a 365 days cooking target. We must not give up.
At the same we must remember that our loved ones are always around to support us. Their support is so much important and necessary for us to go on. Times might come when they get irritated or might not openly comfort us at our hard times but that does not mean they are not with us. Everyone has a bad day, it might be that day for them and for us as well. We need to keep ourselves humble and helpful to everyone we meet everyday.
I have been on lot of times stranded from my goals. Cooking is a passion that has been inside me for a long time. Recently, I have started to walk on the path which I have always wanted. The movie has inspired me so much more and has taught me strive hard and put more effort into what I aspire and want to do.
I am sure there are many more who can relate to this movie and their lives, but I can surely say for myself it has given me so much to learn from and a great feeling to do what I love to do cause “What could happen ?” !!
Thanks to Julia Child and Julie Powell and their respective husbands
Bon Appétit
