Food and Me


Mom says, it used to be a great effort in my childhood days to make me eat. it all changed now i think..:P

Am not a glutton at all, but I love to have the best quality food in limited quantity. I never loved to eat so much quantity.

One best pals of mine are sweets!! Paternal grand father is a famous sweet maker back at home and its all sweets and sweets to me!!

Mom is the best cook in the world! Yeah i know many sons say this but its a proven fact that she is the best among all the family members.

In my childhood I used to be very particular about mom's food. Rather than particular i have to say I was very protective. I never liked anyone sharing my food. Its tasty and its mine!!

Then comes my maternal grandmother, an expert in non vegetarian. The queen of the spices. Ohh myy Godd!!! We all used to meet at her house every Sunday and almost 10-15 people used to eat together. We many times had to eat with literally glasses of water aside. Such a spicy food she used to make! but at the end its super tasty!Mom got skill from her mostly.

With such experts in family its a shock to everyone when I turned vegetarian.The best thing is Mom learnt many special veg dishes only after I turned vegetarian, Hahaa!! :D

5 years out of my hometown, I badly miss my home food. On the way I got used to eat whatever is available in whatever quality!

One of my good friends is my intermediate chemisty lecture (yeah, its true!) and he shifted to Hyderabad during my Btech. Sometimes he would invite me to his house and would feed me like anything. He and his wife would sit with me and make me eat like their own son. Wow!! A true family food and true sentiment (yeah, not my area at all :P)

But things look like changed in the past year. I eat many lunch boxes daily at office which gives me so much home food!!

Special thanks to

Srini's "Dal and Mango pickle" (pappu and avakayi)

to Vinoth's "sambar rice" (and few other rice items mixed with something, a tamilian style)

to KC's "Super duper Potato fry " (I would do anything for this!)

to Akhila's special lunch box (she is such an idiot, she gave me only few times!!)

to Kiran's "Majjiga charu" (She would call me in the morning and would tell me "Gopi I am bringing your favourite dish, dont have any breakfast today, you can eat double the quantity of lunch today! Such a superb person she is!!")

to A new friend who gave me her box one day with super duper sweet, super beans curry and mango pieces!!

Ohh yeah, forgot Giri's fryums (from cafetaria's daily Dawat..:D).

People, I am revealing a weakness of mine. Feed me once with some super tasty food and I am done!! once and all!

PS:

Special special thanks to KC and his mother. Had a good homely lunch in super home atmosphere on last sunday and the best part, his mother did that special potato fry for me!! (Guys! only for me!!), Isn't that super cool?!

PPS : I am hungry now!!

Mommy!! :(
