A Year in Pictures 2008

A random sampling of my life in pictures over the last year.

Tonight was I enjoyed yet another Indian feast. My boyfriend is trying out a bunch of new recipes. Above is a Thai dessert, sticky rice with coconut sauce and mango. Delicious!


Chana Daal fried patties. A sort of Indian Falafel.


A dinner of Goan Bhindi or okra with cashew vinegar sauce accompanied by basmati and chana daal patties.

Spoiled? Nah....

I came home after spending the afternoon with MJ, and found an Indian feast waiting for me! My boyfriend cooks the most delicious Indian food (despite the fact that he's a white boy from the Pacific North West). He recently purchased this amazing cook book called 660 Curries. I have been lucky enough to have eaten many mouthwatering dishes from this book without having cooked a single one myself! Tonight was cabbage with steamed lentils and pan-fried tamarind okra accompanied by Aaron' s delicious basmati which he usually seasons with cardamom and cinnamon; its light lemony and my favourite! I'm a lucky girl!
