‘ONLY’ Event For October & The Giveaway

Hello all!!

It is just two days now that we asked Lord Ganesha to return again the next year and with the onset of October, we are ready to welcome the Goddess Durga. The next two months are full of festivals, fun and food galore. It is definitely the most awaited period of the year here in the country.

Festival or no festival, a mother’s role for her family never changes. Her day starts with making breakfast and packing lunch box for her family. Her job is never ending.. Moreover, today most mother’s being educated and health conscious invest their time, energy in healthy cooking and that’s what the theme for this month’s event is going to be..

The definition of healthy food can vary from family to family and person to person, so I’m not going to provide the criteria for healthy food but I would insist on a balanced diet, i.e a food that contains protein, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals, roughage and water.. So don your health cap and come up with healthy and yet interesting ideas for lunch boxes…

For this month’s event the giveaway cookbook sponsored by www.tarladalal.com is
