Spicy Crackers

I miss India for its lovely monsoon season. I remember those days coming back from school getting drenched in rain. I love the smell of wet mud just before it starts drizzling. Everyone would put their raincoat on and hold their umbrella. But I would just carry the raincoat in hand and wait for rain showers. :)


My mom used to make hot “ Mensinakai Bajji” (Chilli Pakoda) Dad and I would love those hot pakoda and enjoy it sitting next to the window hearing the sound of the rain…Oh it was exhilarating! After all the refreshing memories my mouth is watering.

Little showers were here too. I am here to share Spicy Crackers that I made yesterday and enjoyed it with V sitting outside the balcony.
