Hello Seema,
Thanks a lot for the password. Have mailed you back as well.
Yup, I am twin mommy. They are 20 months old (brats).
Btw, I did try out the Kadai Chicken receipe (was the 1st when I searched for Chicked receipes). Turned out good, but now sure why – the capsicum were a but soggy, will try it out again.. Keep in touch.
Seema
March 26, 2012 at 3:40 pm
Oh, got your e-mail. Sorry for the late response
Just visited your space. Write more na? Would love to read about them
Hey, I really have no idea why the Capsicum were soggy. In that case, you might want to slightly stir fry them separately and add at the end.

Oh My God!!! (For once, I wanna say it like Janice as loud as possible)
Please write your story Saks?? I was
on production business. I went through your blog and I am in splits. Why don’t you blog so often these days?
If you don’t mind and if I’m not intruding, may I know if the families have accepted the marriage? Please feel free not to answer.

Hi Seema,
Lovely post. I love your blogs. If you dont mind, I would love to read your love story posts too. That is only if it is ok.
For some reason, I am unable to comment on your blog. It asks me to log in to my wordpress account, and when I do, it is not taking. It is funny. I am able to comment on other wordpress blogs.

Hi Seema, been following your blog for a while. Truly overwhelmed by your energy juggling with work, twins, home, blogs n cooking…
I have a 15 month old baby and inspite of having all help around, I get exhausted only between work n baby

Mantam are very cute. God bless them
I wish to blog about my baby too but sadly I’m not good at writing although I’m a fantastic blog reader :-d. Hope I start up soon
