i read the blog!!! i haven't been inspired as of late, but will do something interesting soon...vague i now. i love mixing fruit and veggies in salads. my latest craze is adding strawberries and walnuts to my salad, and i always use a papaya poppy seed dressing. we get our veggies from a farmer so its fresh and creative everytime! fun!
Thanks Ayesha, good to know :) Are you part of a community supported agriculture group, or do you get them at a farmer's market? I've just become a market junkie, I keep dragging my poor hubbie from one to the next!
We joined a CSA through wisconsin. I know for a fact there is one in the bay area b/c when my sister in law lived in oakland, they subscribed to one (that even delivered to their back door!!). it's been fun, but as i type, omar is flipping through the cookbooks looking for some desi recipes to use our fresh veggies! definitely some work involved..
haha, yeah, that's my concern - although i guess i could always turn veggies we won't eat into baby food ;) The baby will eat anything!
girl i am! sorry... haven't been cooking enough to post and haven't tried anything new yet, bc... well, i'm lazy. but this is a bookmark that i read often and when i meet the kitchen again, will be bamming these guys out inshaAllah! thanks for keeping the dream alive. love ya!
