Mom also loves experimenting with ingredients. We had this weird green leafy thingy growing in our garden and (not surprisingly) it was supposed to be healthy and good for you. Lo, mum goes ahead and makes pakoras out of that.


Now, mum's a good cook, so can be relied on to produce good results. This wasn't one of them times though. It did however prompt the brother to tell someone "My ma, you give her anything from unripe to rotten and she'll make something out of it".
Dad was given a beautiful tissue silk kurta and was wearing it for some occasion or the other. Mum saw him wearing it, in all its thin and transluscent glory and remarked "Tch, uLLagaDDI pari!" (Onion peel)
