		<title>Weekend this and that~ Grocery Bills</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Mindful shoppers with waste-not mentality, that&#8217;s Vijay and me. We pretty much depend on grains, dals, vegetables and fruits for our nutritional needs, with an occasional splurge here and there. We try to maintain a tight budget and do not like to overspend. Inji Pennu&#8217;s event has prompted me to share my grocery bill with [...]]]></description>

Shallot, Turai and Black Peppercorn
If there is a turai fan club, I would be a card-carrying member. I would go to farmers markets to demonstrate turai dishes and to dispense turai seeds to the interested. I enjoy this vegetable that much.:) Recently I came across a new chutney recipe with turai, and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
Maroon Carrots (skins peeled) 
Deep earthy maroon on the exterior and a brilliant red in the interior with an orangish-white center. Subdued sweetness, and lots of crunch. 
That is how I would describe maroon carrots. In addition to looking unique, maroon carrots also have nutritional benefits - more beta-carotene than their orange counterparts, and they [...]]]></description>

Promise of Sweet Sunshine ~ for Mango Manthram
Have you ever gone shopping for mangoes wearing a sweater and a scarf? It sounds funny to imagine, but that&#8217;s what I did last week.

Jigyasa and Pratibha&#8217;s Pedatha  &#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230; My Avva (Grandmother)
In my unremarkable childhood, the only remarkable thing was the summer holidays I used to spend at my grandmother&#8217;s home at Nandikotkur every year.
