Budding blogger: Cool Lassie

Budding blogger series introduces new bloggers (those blogging for less than a year) every wednesday and promotes their blogs through Simple Indian Food. If you are interested in being a part of this series, please mail me a short description about your blog, the cuisine you specialize and your objective/inspiration in blogging to easycrafts@gmail.com.

This week's featured budding blogger is Cool Lassie/ Lady Behind the Mask from Pan Gravy Kadai Curry blog. Within three months period, she has already crossed a 100 recipes and continues to do a good job by focusing on her blog..Here is what she has to say -

Who am I?

In a word, a Certified-Foodloving-Flexatarian who spent entire childhood and early-teen days in TamilNadu and late-teens->youth->adult transformation happened in the US which makes me an AGCD(American Grown Clear-minded Desi). I am also a proud mom of a 2-year old boy who has taught me to be a little more patient, a lot more loving, a little less snappy and a lot less lazy. So it is really true when they say "Having a baby changes everything".

Why a cooking blog?

Even though cooking slightly falls behind Eating and Traveling in the Passion-meter, it is something that I have to do frequently to:

1.Eat, my first passion, duh! &

2.Live, to tell my tale and to travel, my second passion, yea!

'Pan Gravy Kadai Curry' is the name I came up for the blog since I will be posting both eastern and western recipes. PanGravy->West and KadaiCurry->East. Get it?

Why the nickname 'Cool Lassi(e)'?

Like how most writers have a pen-name, I thought I should have a blog-name. I wanted to call myself Mango Lassi(e) due to my unwavering love for the drink but ended up with Cool Lassi(e) instead.The name can be perceived either as a cool drink or a cool girl. You Call. LoL.
