zest for life!

A long time obsession has come to an end. The fascination remains, that can never go away, considering how much you have given me. but you no more get special attention. I have lost interest in you. It's time to move on. You meant everything to me sometime back, but you have been replaced. I'm not sorry,it's not my fault. You just weren't good enough.There's competition out there, you know. I'm not saying i wont come back to you ever, just that i have better things to look forward to now.
Good bye garlic pickle. Thankkam mavadu is here, and i swear, it literally titillates my senses.

The minute one bites into the crunchy mango piece that is soaked in chilli water, a slight bitter taste sets in, that makes one wonder if it can be classified as pickle at all. The sudden rush of piquancy clears all doubts and makes this the best side dish I've tasted in a long time. The chilli powder, mixed with a bit of salt on the ripe mango gives it a spicy finish,and the taste lingers on for a long, long time. I personally feel kerala has done a great job. Hats off to thankkam mavudu.

P.S- I'm not endorsing the thankkam brand.I didn't even know it existed until a few weeks back,when fe, being the blessed soul she is, brought this delight to my attention. :)

P.P.S- Those of you who love having pickles as much as i do, also try Mother's garlic pickle. :)
