Native Americans call it the food of the gods that created the earth. Corn has an important place in history. Its origin dates back to 5000 years and takes us to Mexico.
With the shocking prices of rice and wheat at Indian stores, I have consciously begun to include makki ki roti (corn roti) into our weekly menu. Corn flour is abundant and a healthy substitute for other staples.

This occasional post will be on everything under the sun except food and cuisine…. It is my thoughts on life, living, politics and people.
I wrote this post back in 2004. We don’t know how a simple human being can impact us until we miss them.
Love You Mom!
It was a clear California morning, I sat down with my cup of tea, wondering if my mom would have liked this house. For the past several years, mom was a part of every major decision we had made. She would have said, “It’s very spacious, its like our Patambi (ancestral) house, I like it”. She would never say anything negative to your face. Being with her, I had learnt to read between the lines at a very early age.
Like the word “spacious” meant a few things “do you really need this big space, you will have to clean it, its more work you”.
