DIY CARDBOARD CUBPOARD

Last week, I made a small cardboard cupboard for my daughter using things that were readily available at home. It can also be called upcycling project, as otherwise, I would have thrown out the cardboard. Now it has turned into a beautiful storage space to keep my daughter’s toys, stationaries, hair bands, accessories, books, etc.

CARROT RECIPES

Carrots are Vitamin rich and are very good for the body. Doctors often recommend us to include carrots in our daily diet. So I try to use carrots and other vegetables while preparing meals everyday. I have shared several carrot recipes in this blog and this post is a collection of all of them in one place. These recipes are easy to make, healthy and delicious.

DOUBLE BEANS CURRY

Double beans curry is a delicious and quick recipe from my mother. This curry can be made with both fresh or dry double beans. I make this curry when I don't have time to chop veggies.
