11.

Feel free to consult your Mom/Mom-in-law or any other woman who has been there, done that much before you.. Else, youtube zindaabaad..

12. Thank God and please thank the persons whom you depend on, for your food.. "अन्नदाता, पाककर्ता, तथा भोक्ता, सुखी भव."

Is there anybody looking to add spice(s) to everyday eating..

Take up the challenge of learning to cook the entire Menu-card of any restaurant you love..

If you must put on weight, let it be out of healthier food-items (healthier, as in processed hygienically and cooked with love & care)..

Try meal-planning on weekly or fortnightly basis, and stick to it..

Replace Chapati with Parathas/Poori (at times, I would advise).. You would thank me for it, trust me..

Make fried snacks such as Chiwda, Chakli, Namakpaare, all round the year and not reserved for Diwali, Christmas, etc. ..

Eat lots of Fruits (particularly the seasonal ones).. They still are cheaper than those chocolates, sweetmeat and other desserts, and Fructose is still better than Glucose or Sucrose.. Buy that cute, kawai fruit-forks set, R.N. ..

Take help of every family-member in cooking..

समझो हो ही गया!

Ditch गिल्की, लौकी, टिंडा and कद्दू Forever... Embrace Aloo, Tofu, Paneer, Soya -chunks, Flaxseed, (pure) Ghee and lots of milk & water..
