Second by Second, Minute passes

Minute by Minute, Hour passes

Hour by Hour, Day passes

Day by Day, Month passes

Month by Month, Year passes

Thus the time passes.

and as it passes it reminds me BHW every month.

Oh my god, early in the morning what happened to me writing a poem which I composed. I am really tempted today to put a post which is sourced from my sweet blogger, Sangeetha from her blog, Spicy Treats for the second time. She is that sweet to update me, stating last time as she was not well couldn't post from my blog. Thus, she will post it definitely this time. And she is really so sweet her post - Chole Mint Bhat is the first entry linked for this time Blog Hop Wednesday 17, which was recreated from my post Aloo Pudina Bhat.  Thanks a lot Sangeetha. Thanks Radhika to link both of us once again in Blog Hop Wednesday.

My dear readers, Blog Hop Wednesday (BHW) is a monthly event on Tickling Palates, which strikes me on every 1st of the month and I visit google groups to check with whom I am paired and to find out what recipe I could make and link it. This is 17th Series and its a second version of BHW.

As it is summer, I selected an instant drink this time which I love since ages, and that's the yummy Lassi. I remember those days, where mom used to take me to Sreeraj Lassi Bar, which is famous in Bangalore and I used to order for a flavored Lassi. Always my drink used to be Sweet Lassi. But now, I have started adding fruits to Lassi. Great da, they have a website now, i came to know only today.

Ingredients:

Banana - 1 riped

Curds or Yogurt - 1/2 cup

Water - 1/4 cup

Sugar - 4 tsp (salt also can be used instead of sugar)

Raisins - few

Method:

Peel the skin from the banana

Chop the banana into pieces

Add curds, water and sugar along with banana into a blender and blend it well

Garnish with raisins, your lassi is ready -:)

Engagement Thali - Mixed Fruits Icecream

Engagement Thali - Mixed Fruits Icecream:

Impressed by Thalis shown at Blogging Marathon - 15 I came up with this Thali. As my blog was celebrating Hema's Adugemane Marathon.

Oops, mine was a love marriage so it directly went to marriage and did not have a sweet function like Engagement which is called as "Lagnapatrike" in kannada. After a bride is selected for a groom, they held this function and write the date to fix the marriage date.

Sweet, snacks would be arranged and I have made the simplest one.

This Thaali contains:

Sweet   Chandrakala 
Icecream 
   Mixed Fruit Icecream
Snacks 
  Fryums
  Mixture
  Baby aloo masala
      baby aloos cooked well, sprinkled with pepper and salt

 


Ingredients:
Milk - 1/2 cup
Papaya - 3 pieces
Watermelon - 3 pieces
Banana - 1/2
Sugar Sachets - 4
Butter - 1 tsp





Method:

 

Mash all the fruits and mix it with milk

Add sugar and mix it well

 Melt butter and add sugar to it, to get a caramelization effect

After 6 hours it turned out to be ice

One more shot in a diff angle

Thus, my marathon ends here:

Day 1: Mango Smoothie - Kids Delight.

Day 2: Tri flavored Fruit Punch

Day 3: Orange Iced Cold Tea

Day 4: Orange Jam

Day 5: Banana Burger Sandwich

Day 6: Apple Icecream

Banana Burger Sandwich:

Dear Blog Readers, 

Oops, it happened again. I had prepared a Banana Burger Sandwich on Saturday and an Apple Ice cream on sunday but due to my little sweet and naughty angel I couldn't post.

My little angel once he sees the laptop will come and sit on the keyboard and cover the display and see the desktop. As he still doesn't understand that he has to type from keyboard he does this. Generation changed pa from TV to laptop. -:)

This post is for my blogging marathon - Hema's Adugemane Marathon
