Terrific Two

Over the weekend, my little pampered space turned two. Two years back, I created this blog and kept private for two weeks before opening my doors to everyone. My intention was to keep records of my family valuable recipes and to share with my family members and close friends. But, I didn't expected any huge number of readership who will be interested what I cook- eat or even dislike.

I was not the one who discovered the kitchen after my marriage. Lucky husband didn't face any in toxic/ inedible food in his plate.

Blogging world opened a wide exposure in different cuisine, photography skills and few web features. I learn and still learning many...

The journey is so far pleasant, smooth and joyful.

I thank each and everyone for your suggestions, valuable comments and support. It would have been never possible without your encouragements to reach such milestone!

After hitting the publish button, this time I will be more existed to read your comments, tell me what you didn't liked so far,  or enjoyed, which category of recipe you wish in future... Bad or Good I am bold enough to go through..... It will help me to keep this place interesting , useful to you.

To celebrate this occasion let's see how easy it is this treat!

If u prefer not to cover the fruits and nuts balls with chocolate. Lucky you are no need to cook at all!
