little home sunshine goa

Maple was down with fever, sparkle's again got cold and a little fever ,my sis met with an accident, Mom is down with back pain, daddy is visiting doc... O god! why are all my dear ones in pain? God please help all of them to recover; reduce their discomfort and pain. During this Lent gives us the strength to build ourselves to await and celebrate the resurrection of our God. During this lent period I try to bow down onto the ground 40 times and pray for all who are in need of gods mercy and blessing. -Pray for girls who await for the sacrament of marriage to happen in their life. -pray for expecting mothers -pray for people who are suffering with health issue -pray for children, their health, education. -pray for people who are with out food. God plz have mercy on us, we are frail, u r our strength. Give us strength and let peace and happiness, prevail in our lives. Praise to almighty. Amen

Its kind of boring to repeat dishes over and over again, hence i have decided that I shall try out something new every week (everyday is little too much to expect from this poor mom). Seasonal fruits or veggies are excellent. We buy them fresh and can use them for almost a week. Its like just hunt in your fridge and get the stuff. And what did I find in my fridge was some raw mangoes!  hubby dear had bought them to make his favorite mango coconut milk curry. But I had to try some thing new with them (I did save a few mangoes to make his dish later). My cutie friend had once taught me to make this recipe when we were at hostel. Its the sweet mango pickle or sauce! So I made some dhokla and sweet mango pickle! Though dhokla didn't turn out they were supposed to, but they were good, thanks to the sweet mango pickle, it covered up all the flaws in my dhokla. So dhokla recipe will come up once I master in it myself. But for now My sweet mangoes pickle is here! Ingredient:

Praying during Lent gives a sense of being part with the suffering of our Christ. I picture all those who are in need of my prayer, try to feel the pain that they are going through and pray for each of them... the after effect is so calming. My God show mercy to all who are in need. My aim during this jouney through the lent period: 1. Try not to get angry 2. Avoid Gossiping 3. Pray for all who I know  4. give away thing that are not being used by me, so that someone else may use it. 5. stay away from feeling jealous. let see how many of these i may be able to achieve.

My poor lilttle baby is just recovering from fever n cold! O god thank you for making him feel better.
