another festival which awashed me with memories - MahaShivratri

Another festival which takes me afar
I remember going to temple
And the mela and the rides
I remember it all
Morning I told my son
Today its shivratri
Shiva

But nobody told us
We knew there would be Shiva songs
On the street queue before temple
But now things have changed I need
To tell him
And I tell because that's how
Stories are shared memories is made
How can I end this just because
I am not in my country
And this is what your mother had
For breakfast
Fried makhana and chai

mahashivratri - phalahari alloo aur chai

Daily the same end
But these festivals
Bring a pause to
Our monotonous life
And with today being mahashivratri
Had to write about it in my diary ...




So todays special was my favourite vrat wale alloo paired with ginger chai and curd
This post is about curd though here we get all kind of yogurt
I prefer to do it at home somehow then only I feel satiated
Ingredient
Milk one litre
Starter curd one tbsp.
Procedure
Boil milk nicely till its thick and creamy
Once done remove from flame and let it cool
Add one tbsp. Of starter and mix nicely
warm microwave for two minute
Keep the vessel in it to set for overnight
By morning homemade yogurt is ready ...
have posted poetry on mahashivratri in my other blog
