Food cravings – desserts

These are some of the cravings of a pregnant woman. When Anirud was inside her she would get these sudden desires to eat Indian sweet delicacies. We were in Kuwait at that time and despite having some Indian shops that made local sweets, you cannot compare that to the quality and variety you get in India. Therefore you got to live with what you get. When she feels like eating something, either I would drive her to the shop even if it is late in the evening, provided the shop is open, or get it for her. Unfortunately, I am no cook who could whip up delicacies for her and she sorely misses someone who can do that for her. Someone who can enjoy the passion for cooking just as much as eating what she makes. There are limitations in certain people….it’s an excuse, one could argue…rightfully so…and while I say or preach this to others…if you want to do it, you can do it…you need to try, practice and if there is a will, there is always a way….but then for me….somehow, kitchen is a far fetched place. I don’t even dream about it….other than where luscious dishes are made for the tongue to taste and devour the delicacies.

She is not a great fan of ice creams or chocolates…but sweets yes….unlike me….it’s all in limited portion…just for the taste of it…and not just keep eating it like there is no tomorrow. But definitely, sweet tooth runs in the family….and no one can deny that…yet….so why fake it…enjoy it while it lasts….and forget for the moment that somewhere something or everything is bulging all around…that’s for another day….right now….the lingering taste in that mouth is what matters….and nothing else….won’t you agree!!!
