This page is definitely bookmarked !
I have enjoyed week 1 the most with kids party ! ( can’t help it , I always think of myself as a kid ) .
I also loved your thought process of pooris and all with B !
Amazing - how do you even think on such lines ?
And street food - you know it is my weakness and my favourite theme .
Stupendous work , shows lot of enthusiasm and zeal to cook !
Looking forward to our next mega BM 🥰

You are a superwoman. Planning and executing thali themes on two sites is marvelous. You have made me fall in love with stuffed pooris and needless to talk about those chaat series. I am going to come back again for recipes. As always amazing Valli.
