It Was One Of Those Days...
Of Congratulations And Celebrations...
~~~
When The Entire Family Had Gathered...
On The Occasion Of...
Commemorating My Biggest Win...
So Far, In The Blog-o-Sphere...
~~~
Of Course, It Had To Be!
When There's Family Backing You Up...
In Whichever Venture Of Life...
You Ought To Emerge Victorious!
~~~
Remember Not Astrology, It's Gastronomy!?
Precisely, My Point...
~~~
It's Indeed A Cloud Nine Moment...
To Make One's Mark...
To Be Adjudged One Of The Best...
Out Of The Crowd...
~~~
And, when my Family had been involved, ever since Day 1...
The Celebration HAD To Be Grand...
~~~
From That Day to This Day...
When...
This Arrived...
On The Eve Of Eid...
July 28, 2014...
Quarter To 5...
~~~
That Was My #BeautifulFood Moment...
~~~
Having Received Such An Exquisite Hamper...
To Adorn My Culinary Creations...
And, Make My Food...
#BeautifulFood...
~~~
Come, July 29...
This was what adorned my Twitter...
@indiblogger @borosilandyou Auspicious Eid - I'd like to present my #BeautifulFood - Sheer Khurma, in artsy bowl. :) pic.twitter.com/uxyTof6f3j
— Poonam Khanduja (@stiryoursouls) July 29, 2014

Sheer Khurma, is an annual delicacy, prepared by Yours Truly...
On the pious occasion of Eid, each year, without fail.
But, This Time...
It attained superlative pinnacles...
Because...
It did not remain just Food...
It became #BeautifulFood! ^_^
~~~
Sheer Khurma, The Velvety Vermicelli...
A Delectable Delight - Oh So Heavenly!
The Ever Unmatched Pride Of The Festival Of Eid...
Topped With Almonds, Cashews, Raisins, Elaichi...
The Perfect Companion For The Perfectly Presented Food...
Is That Perfect Glassware From Borosil - #BeautifulFood...
And, So, It Was Imperative, Elementary At The Most...
In My Mixing Bowl, Each Layer, Distinct...
Of This Masterpiece, I Could Rightfully Boast! ^_^
~~~
Because...
As They Say...
अच्छे काम की शुरुआत मीठे से करनी चाहिए।
~~~
And...
After That...
#BeautifulFood का कारवां बढ़ता गया...
और Dishes जुड़ती गईं! :)
~~~
And, On The Next Day ...
Came...
~~~
When effort attains recognition...
It is a moment of achievement...
~~~
And, to hear words of gratitude and encouragement...
From A Brand Name...
Which Has Been The 'Heart-Throb'...
Of Many A Culinary Delights...
And, On Many A Special Occasions...
Not Since Today...
But, Since A Decade...
For Me, And My Family...
~~~
The next few days...
Pre-occupied my Right Hemisphere's Creative Abilities...
To give this opportunity my best shot...
Was A MUST. :)
~~~
And...
I Returned...
On Friendship Day...
With My Batch Of Freshly Prepared...
Articulately Presented...
#BeautifulFood...
~~~
After All...
'Foodie Friends' Applies Not Only To Us...
But To Gastronomic Delights As Well!
~~~
Home - Made, Grilled To Perfection...
Succulent Juicy Chicken Creation...
Accompanied By Good To Taste पुदीना & प्याज़...
There's Not More You Could Ask For - Not आज! :)
Coming Along With A Hard To Refuse Combination...

The inquisitiveness of Team Borosil...
Kept Inspiring Me To The Helm...
To Come Up With Ever-so-Novel Dishes...
With Even Newer Styles Of Presentation...

And, Being A Working Woman...
Sunday Works Wonders...
I Get To Spend The Most Time...
In My 'Kreative Kitchen'...
With My #BeautifulFood...
~~~
This...
Was Prepared...

Best wishes to you!
Thanks for the compliments, Anita.
DeleteBeing a working woman takes its toll, sometimes, but if I can balance Home and Work effortlessly, this one had to make the cut.
All over the last 10 Days, effort, time, passion...
All for the love of Family and all for Family's love for food! :)
And, now that Food is the focal point for this discussion...
