Musings

Two children back to school and the rounds of friends's houses, afterschool activities and, for the little one, the playgroups etc begin. November seems crammed with weekend parties of all sorts. Very different from when I had just come to Birmingham years ago and didn't know anyone, was at home with a baby most of the time, other than walks, didn't drive etc. My must do for anyone with a baby under 6 months is to get out of the house at least once a day and socialise as much as possible.

In other things, there is this glut of eggs and a big pack of butter from Costco, and some semolina to be used. Have been baking cakes regularly, so for an alternative, am going to try baath / baarth/ baathk, whatever the spelling, this week. I use a mix of my MIL's and an aunt's recipe and it turns out lovely. Might freeze one for Christmas. Its wolfed down by everyone. Our non Goan friends wonder at the no flour thingie and a couple of Goan friends don't believe me when I say how easy it is. Will post the recipe and pic after baking.
