Whenever I’m getting reading to eat, my cat is always at my feet at the stove. I am always tripping over him and swearing at him. Nevertheless, he is such a funny creature. How many cats can eat artichokes correctly after all? When my husband cooks, the kitchen smells of strong erotic spices from what I have incorrectly called the Middle East, but now I refer to as south Asian. I didn’t know the difference and was embarrassed to realize I was referring to an actual continent incorrectly. No matter how hard, I try I haven’t been able to reproduce his best dishes. But then he does have the benefit of spending most of his life in Pakistan, where we do get hour specialty spices. I bet your wondering, but to my surprise, it hasn’t been difficult to find a decent ethnic grocery store. All you need to do is look in the yellow pages. Hey, there is a novel idea.
(I'll leave the rest to you.)
You wouldn’t believe how fresh and inexpensive the foods at these stores are when we shop at our favorite store rhythms of India the owners know now us they often encourage us to buy the most recent shipment of goat meat I wasn’t really crazy about that curry but love makes you do crazy things like happily married people everywhere we compromise when it is about something important we talk and sometimes agree to disagree though you’ve got to be yourself right"
