Diwali is heading fast...
All of you will be planning to make Sweets & Savouries for the festival...
But Many of us,Try getting from shop,Thinking its very difficult to make at home...
Its not so...!!!
Only a few pre preparations & patience will do...
Today I was speaking to my Friend Jayanthi,And we were both in Nostalgic memories of those days Diwali...
Those were the days ,We used to celebrate the festivals with full Josh & simplicity , yet It was very merry ful...
Its really wonderful memories of Dabba full of Sweets & Murukkus....,
Exchanging those Homemade snacks with relatives & friends...
Wishing Friends & relatives over Phone(STD Calls)...
Sending Hand drawn Diwali Cards..
Large colour Kolams, New dresses, Crackers.No much TV, But lots of small happiness,
These days We spend a lot on Snacks, Dresses & Crackers , But still I feel the Joy has reduced...
Those were the days,Spent with real Bliss.... :-)...
Ok...
Now Being a Foodie,I thought , Let me at least try to make few snacks at home...
As Millets are very much in talk these days,as it is a healthier choice,
I tried out this Murukku & It turned to be crispy, tasty & Healthy too...
