I love to share my beautiful food with people and I still spend half my weekends immersed in the creative joy of cooking for my loved ones.<br /><br />Hi Greenfrog, that's a good question - it gave me something to chew on for a while! <br />Work is a huge part of my life, but for me now, all parts flow in and through all the other parts. It's all one. Work doesn't feel separate, so the need to integrate it doesn't exist. <br />The bigger question for me is how to balance my growing need for a natural life with working full time in a society that encourages artificial values. Less and less am I inclined to compromise and that's both exciting and scary.nobodhihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04471854227560555251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3365190850105997066.post-10952740918791655552009-10-06T14:13:11.822-07:002009-10-06T14:13:11.822-07:00nobodhi,

Sometimes I resent it, but mostly I immerse myself in creating. Honestly, way too much cooking goes on in my beloved country! Yesterday lunch was a mixed veg curry with cottage cheese; spinach; cucumber salad; curd that must be set after breakfast; knead the dough for rotis which are baked at lunchtime,<br />stir-fried mung & methi sprouts. The masala for the curry starts from scratch. Maybe that is one of the reasons why indian women did not divorce, there was no time to think. Most days even if it's one cooked vegetable, it saves only a little time. Four of us are together for nearly every meal. I have to admit though, it makes one generous in many ways.Kavitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10217013483503093226noreply@blogger.com
