Okay! I am back here again
exactly after two months and four days.
It’s awful, I know. That feeling
of emptiness was always there and I just couldn’t help it. Or rather, I should put it the other way
round; I never made an endeavor to help resolve my emptiness. Everything that happens is the will of
God. So basically, I never thought that
I would ever pen down a food post here on my blog which is called ‘Sentiments’. Peeps, I started this blog to pen down the
most touching moments of my life which are tender, nostalgic, romantic or full
of emotion, feelings that I could share with you all.
One fine day while going through
my newsfeed on my facebook account, I saw a very good friend of mine posting
pictures of the dishes she had made to a group page. I was curious to know since besides a foodie,
I am an avid lover who is always ready to experiment with the little culinary
skills that I possess. (Special shout out and big thanks to my mom for
that). The group is called “Chef at
Large” better known as CAL.
It is a wonderful group where
people come together on this platform and share their innovative ways of
cooking. My friend pushed me to join and
after a couple of days of going through her posts and reading beautiful
comments and some awesome pictures of mouth watering delicacies, I decided to
join as well.
Forewarning: CAL is contagious.
(I am just hooked to the posts and keep reading, admiring, liking and
commenting on the awesome posts of great Chefs out there) and am so full of spirit
after joining it.
The slow paced series of posts
from my side to the CAL group began. I
was happy to share my posts with pictures and recipes to CAL. Today incidentally is “Teacher’s Day” too and
I prepared an “Eggless Black Forest Cake” on a special demand by my little
munchkins.
Everything was homemade that I
used and to my surprise, it came out just so wonderfully. I always used to bake cake but never knew how
to decorate it or do the icing on it.
This time I tried my hands on the decoration/icing part. Before posting, I thought that there are many
experts on CAL and I stand nowhere in comparison to them. But as it is rightly said, “You may choose to
look the other way but you can never say again that you did not know.” Hence, I decided and moved on to get that
icing done on my baked Black Forest Cake and guess what with a homemade whipped
cream. Can you guys beat that?
And Voila! My first ever endeavor
to decorate it was liked nah! loved by all.
The very evidence of it I got witnessing the million dollar smile on the
faces of my little munchkins. Within
minutes of posting getting a call from my better half made me feel as if I am
on cloud nine.
I am quiet joyous sharing about
my culinary skills with everyone and as I said before, little things in life
that makes me feel good, tender, nostalgic, romantic or full of emotions, I
share it with you. And lastly, a special shout out to Nisha Ambar who pushed me
to come and join the platform called CAL. Babe you know me well :)
