‘Tis the weekend…..
…..to eat and be merry, la la la la la la la la la. We invited way too many people and cooked way too much food. But it was a fun weekend and i can’t wait to do it again, lekin break ke baad.
It started off with dinner on Friday night with N&R and their adorable kids. Menu - paneer makhani, gobi-peas-carrot subzi, paranthas, veg pulao (not shown in pic), raita and shrikhand.
Banana bread on Saturday morning. Those blueberry type things you see are actually chocolate pieces. Also, the bread looks like a cake because I didn’t have bread pans for baking that day. The bread did not come out as well as usual but the taste was just fine. And the gooey chocolate pieces made up for any design mishaps.
Saturday night - relaxed dinner at home. Bruschetta, penne with roasted garlic and tomatoes, and a glass of good Argentinean Malbec.
Sunday lunch with V & V and baby A. We hadn’t met in a really long time and had a lot to catch up on. It was so nice to end the weekend in their company. Mom cooked some kick-ass Palakkad food - Katrikka porichakuzhambu, olan, garlic rasam, cabbage-peas upperi and curd rice.
All in all, a very satisfactory weekend. Even though I have to exercise doubly hard this week to get rid of all the excess lard around my very fat stomach!

Thanks! I will pass the compliments on to my mom, who whipped up most of these delicacies.
