As to why I love to visit your blog, lots of reasons! Apart from the fact that i think you're a friend & therefore, would visit your blog anyway, you have good food & great photography here. I don't see "same old, same old" kinda recipes in your blog, so that I find very interesting. I confess I don't always read through the preamble, mainly depending on my frame of mind & the amount of time I have. But ones that I have read (and you write well, btw) also resonate with me - whether you remembering your childhood days or writing about customs that are/were followed, all make for a nice read.Vanihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02990053720835647706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34998002.post-73303695451806854742008-07-02T22:15:00.000+01:002008-07-02T22:15:00.000+01:00i guess we all visit each other's blogs to get some inspiration for our daily cooking ;) something new to try!<BR/>ur dish is new to me, see now i've something diff to try ;)Richahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08386161012677274105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34998002.post-77587804972300372072008-07-02T21:20:00.000+01:002008-07-02T21:20:00.000+01:00Sia, are you for real??

I like reading your stories so I come back to see if your post was as interesting as your last one (or better than the previous one ;)<BR/>Then, your sense of humour, and your photos.<BR/>Even I am terrified of running out of stuff for blog posts, btw.<BR/>Just the other day, I heard someone speak a language I'd never heard before, and when I asked them what it was, they said it was Tulu. It sounded South Indian, but not like any other S Indian language I had heard.srahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03243944393796831559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34998002.post-50059244072097749082008-07-02T17:41:00.000+01:002008-07-02T17:41:00.000+01:00Hi Sia, I visit your blog very often because of the pictures..your distinctive style as well as the awesome stories.

So great to see your blog and getting back my inspiration to cook and blog something. Good recipe, I heard recently that Jack Fruit has huge amounts of protein which is very very good for vegetarians. I will try this soon and will let you know.Latahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13145328096463914745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34998002.post-27468106055424460062008-07-02T17:01:00.000+01:002008-07-02T17:01:00.000+01:00btw, how about sending these yummy Gujje palya to a Gujju here ;)Poojahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14046975223820190015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34998002.post-36874777953002898752008-07-02T17:00:00.000+01:002008-07-02T17:00:00.000+01:00Gujje palyalooks so wonderful. and you think that it is not "bloggable" ??? why being so unkind to all of us Sia . <BR/>Keep sharing all your traditional dishes ,I just love it.Poojahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14046975223820190015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34998002.post-33626989018666983022008-07-02T16:45:00.000+01:002008-07-02T16:45:00.000+01:00Allo Allo :)<BR/><BR/>Long time reader/lurker. First time to comment. Since you've asked for some ego-boosting :), here's my 2 cents. I like hanging out in your blog cos its pleasing to the eye(pics are always very eyecatching), you have some interesting prefaces, little stories to tell, nostalgic tidbits(its not just all about the recipe), great presentation of said food/recipe, you always make it a point to share a little bit about yourself, who you are, where you're from, what you do.....hm yes sum total of all the above. <BR/><BR/>About me, I am no food blogger for sure. I am a mediocre foodie at best. I typify the "jack of all trades, master of none".<BR/><BR/>Thats it from me, do serve me all this eye candy, I do try some of your recipes. Do try to make it a point to leave some feedback.<BR/><BR/>tc<BR/>-altoidAltoidhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12905810697784377192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34998002.post-6915230010803024102008-07-02T16:22:00.000+01:002008-07-02T16:22:00.000+01:00Ha ha,cannot believe that u ve nothing to fill ur post, seriously i would like to read Sia's rants !I visist especially to read the Leeenghty post :) <BR/>Never tasted jackfruit curry , it is sweet & spicy ?Chamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06912395013740648068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34998002.post-19630828720158950212008-07-02T16:09:00.000+01:002008-07-02T16:09:00.000+01:00Inspite of having a writer's block, you've managed to write a lengthy preface :D And sweetie that's a nice way of asking everyone to praise you ;P Ok, I'll run before you hit me now!!!Jyothsnahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03338468510575659800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34998002.post-5553327956158904312008-07-02T16:08:00.000+01:002008-07-02T16:08:00.000+01:00Your recipes and posts are so.....evocative & nostalagic, that's what I like best about your blog. <BR/>As for the writer's block,sometimes a pic says a thousand words:)delhibellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13457393393138391936noreply@blogger.com
