This is my space, where I come to when I feel like I need a break from the whirlwind of everyday life. Somewhere where I can unwind, share my recipes, successes and experiments in life, in the garden, in the kitchen(Adukalai) and elsewhere :-)

A memorable day at NASDAQ Times Square!
Last week was a whirlwind week. A quick trip to NYC my old backyard, brought back nostalgic memories but this time we were there for an exciting and bigger reason than just to visit Times Square. our company Tradier(that 5 of us founded late last year - 2012) was ringing the closing bell at Nasdaq stock exchange along with Nasdaq OMX and Amazon to celebrate our partnership. June 18, 2013 was a big day. It gave us all the incentive to be doing what we do everyday. A moment to celebrate and to be thankful...Here is it in pictures...

Welcome summer with salads!
This summer has been weird of sorts....Hot and wet and windy at times...but I am not complaining. As long as you give me any weather with rain now and then I am good :-)
I'd love to share this salad with you. It is simple, makes a fine presentation and shoo-s peoples' inhibitions about eating a salad. I have come to realize that one way to make eating salads fun is to keep varying them every day. A different vegetable, some bright colors, a secret ingredient...Keep 'em guessing. And its half the battle won. And accolades will follow!
I am not giving a detailed description of this salad. The picture speaks for itself. Try it without any dressing or your favorite light vinegar dressing. Enjoy!
Bon apetit!

For those of you who have tried South Beach Diet, trying it now or thinking of trying it - I'd like to share my experience with it. I tried it back in 2010 and lost almost 32 lbs on it, combined with exercise and a healthy lifestyle.
The reason I am reviving this thread is because I myself am thinking of going on that diet now as I have not been good to myself between 2012 May and 2013 May - in the process putting on almost 20 lbs back again. I am going to maintain this blog as a diary to my South Beach Diet journey with the hope that it will keep me in track and helps others too in the process.
I am going to begin my 2 weeks with no carbs starting Saturday June 22, 2013.
