Peach Lassi with Saffron

October 11, 2007 |

or … an evening in a food blogger’s life.

What’s for dinner? Check the events calendar.

Choose all the birds you want to kill with one stone.

Hang some low-fat yogurt in a cheesecloth for 15 minutes, to drain some of the liquid. Or pretend you did.

Take picture of peaches.

Blend yogurt with peaches, a pinch of saffron and a dash of honey.

Take picture.

Nah, that sucks.

Distort.

Send it to Mansi for A Fruit a Month - Peach. She wants us to write something about peaches. Well, they are of a ummm…. peach colour. :)

Sunita wants us to Think Spice: Saffron. We did. ;;)

    Nowadays, people are fond of practical things as their gift, expecially girls. So what presents will you choose?
    Choosing a gift wont be a tough thing for you any more if you know ugg. Ugg shoes are warm, comfortable, and soft. It can protect feet completely well. It can be ranged on the top list on your present choice.
    Ugg classic tall boots go with jeans, ugg classic short boots go with jeans, or ugg ultra tall boots go with skirt can make a girl look more fashionable. If you are a guy who don’t know how to choose a gift, then, you can choose ugg boots. Your girls will feel happy for your considerate behavior.
