Cooking Medley

Welcome to my home on the Web, the CookingMedley. I am glad you found your way here. I am a 20 something IT professional from India currently living and working in small town USA. I love to cook and bake. I cherish the time I am in the kitchen. I started this blog to document my cooking adventures, some I learnt from my mom, some from friends, some from fellow bloggers, some from books, some from the Internet, some that I just made up myself. Hence the name Cooking Medley!

Ugadi - Ushering the New Year

It is two-post-Wednesday today. Do check out my other post today - an entry to Hooked on Heat's Fusion theme this month.

Vyaya Nama Samvatsara Shubhakanshaklu to everyone. I hope this year brings everyone happiness, prosperity in everyone's lives and in the food blogging world :).

Each Telugu new year has a name associated with it and this years' name is "Vyaya" meaning "expenditure". There are 60 new year names and the names repeat after 60 years. For the curious minded, the other names are here.
