    Hello Maria,

    A new admission to your blog! :) like u say “better late than nevr”… :)

    Have to say really gud job with the blog, u have done so much at such a less time.

    I could associate to most of your stories cos im also from bahrain and i do try out recpies when in the mood.

    Im 22 and would probably get married in another couple of years and since born and bought up here, i rarely fettishthe kerala fud in depth and nevr found the pateince to learn them also from mom. hehe…

    This blog actualy made me take a quick glance at al ur recipes and i never felt so happy to c recipes like ‘carrot beans thoren’, ‘paladda’, and much more, thats rarely expected from a cooking website… :)

    Im sure you l make my future mother in law proud of me one day! ;)

    would keep u posted on my attempts!

    Once again well done. Tc and al the very best!! :)

    Hi Julia,

    I know you sent me this comment a long time back. But since I met the person who wrote this, it makes the comment more special :)

    It was nice meeting you other day, though we couldn’t talk for long. I am sure that Kunjumol aunty has so many good recipes to teach you :)

    Also am sure of the fact, your MIL will be proud of you and whoever she is, she is a lucky woman to get a daughter in law like you :)

    All the best dear for your future and may all your dreams come true!!

    Cheers
    Maria
