By mistake


And we did it again. There's a vanilla yogurt cup in the fridge, god knows doing what. Its going into Vanilla yogurt pancakes with Banana Maple sauce I made Vanilla yogurt pancakes from this recipe as it promised thinner pancakes than the first one. I wanted to make strawberry compote, Orange compote and the banana maple syrup sauce from the first recipe. While cutting strawberries, I tasted some slices and thought against adding sugar. Then I thought I will mix all the three fruits together. Finally I just made it with strawberries but it so needs sugar. PS: Looking for the 'original' and dismissing 'low fat' and 'fat free' he ended up choosing to ignore 'Vanilla'.

She said that as she would shape the dough, it would spring back to its original shape. That makes me appreciate the complexity of dishes and the act of cooking. My neighbor impressed with my interest in he sweet, shared some Mohanthal with us. It is truly a sweet from heaven. I was reminded of a sweet from my marriage. Another neighbor quipped about the satisfactoin of eating when very hungry and not as much when you eat on time everyday, which resonated in the following lines of Charles Bukowski in  Wandering in the cage. "the best thing about near-starvation and hunger is that when you finally eat it is such a beautiful and delicious and magical thing. people who eat 3 meals a day throughout life have never really tasted food… "
