Food for thought or Thought for Food ;)

Cooking has been my passion since I was a little girl.......as little as 10 or 12 ;)
Never a necessity though it was a urge that came from within which kept growing
Had never thought that I would be writing this today......But after lot of coaxing and cajoling
from none other than my better half .......started this journey of sharing my thoughts and interests
with you all.
Being a bong its not easy to overlook the various delicacies that surround us starting from
Sankranti in January to  the home made cakes made during Christmas in December...so as they say
Baro maashe tero parbon....and I have always taken pride in being a bong when there has been discussions of food.....moreover I am a BANGAL and my Hubby a GHOTI...so it's always fun fighting over Illish and Chingri and then devouring them with as much pleasure.

It all started with accompanying mom and Didun (grand mom) to the kitchen,toasting  bread or flipping an omlette like the other girls do...and may be even making sweets and savouries during Durga Pujas and other festivals.
Then suddenly I found myself being engaged and totally engrossed in knowing everything that was being
prepared in the kitchen......
My Didun being a wonderful cook and having all those knowledge and art of cooking that Bong moms have,
always encouraged me to try out different things...and I sort of found an Enclyclopedia (of cooking) in her :D
Didun has always bean a wonderful teacher and being a perfectionist she has always taught me things the right way.
In my posts I would be often mentioning this wonderful lady I call Didun,,,,,,and share her recipes with you.
