After she left, I had a hard time smelling, tasting and racking my brains on which ones were which .. in fact 3 masalas remained "unknown" till the very end. Just recently I did a complete overhaul of my kitchen and got the hang of the enormous stuff I have. <BR/><BR/>And they say "there is no work at home". ;-)Archana Bahugunahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04930196195648347298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3471673.post-1153168123375589082006-07-17T13:28:00.000-07:002006-07-17T13:28:00.000-07:00Prasanna - 40 pages-aaa :-O!!
