Hey everyone,
Excited to announce the relaunch of our website with delicious recipes! Sorry for the delay, got caught up in the usual routine and office tasks.
This relaunch is dedicated to my daughter, a witty cooking enthusiast, following in her grandmother and mother’s footsteps. She prefers digital recipes over handwritten ones, always aiming for something cool. For those who know my determined daughter Akanksha, her fearless “nothing is impossible” attitude shines through, especially when it comes to negotiating over food.
So, here’s to you, girl! Let’s kick off with a healthy recipe for Carrot Cake. This recipe holds a lot of nostalgia, passed down from my mom, who insisted on feeding my kids healthy. Now, friends and family eagerly await its return.
It’s a simple one-pot recipe, no fancy equipment needed. Perfect for our busy lifestyles.
