Food For Thought

Posted by Umema Siddiqi on Thursday, October 01, 2009 in , , ,

Momma: Dump your books in your own room and get ready for lunch.
Me: What is there in lunch?
Momma: Bottle gourd! (aka Ghiya, louki, kaddoo, sorekai and God knows what else).
Me: *starts making faces* Nahi khaana!
Momma: Hawww. You shouldn't be saying like that. It's a Sunnah to eat louki!
Me: I'm sure there were other better vegetables in the Prophet's era. Isn't eating potatoes a Sunnah????

I don't want to skip lunch. I don't do breakfast or dinner. I'm not a fan of green veggies. I don't want to eat Miss Louki!!! :/ Bahhhh!!! ='( I think I should go fry a few spring rolls!

Cheerio folks =(

Dinky Mind says:
4:21 pm

~Senilius: Hahah.. That sounds so cool =D ... as cool as Snivelly Kaddoo, nahi? =P

~PD: That seems so =P Your mom never made kaddooo? How lucky of you!!! Do you know what 'torian' are? We have to eat them too =(

~SAWJ: And I just came up with a name for Absar! =P Guess guess =D

Senilius says:
7:34 pm

Okay, remove Dinky. It's just Bhindi Mind! :P

As for Absar...err...Shanoo Aaloo???

PD says:
10:06 pm

haha yes, mine makes them too, but not a lot. They're not all that bad with white rice. :P

Sawj, make it Shanoo Aaloo 'chachoo' for Absar ;) bahaha

Have I told you? Whenever I see your name it makes me think of sinus and a runny nose! What happened to Sawj??

asma says:
11:27 pm

I've finally come to a conclusion that its their weird names that make me a big repellent of them ... vegies like these are very very yum. Now I cook all of them and eat with Alhamdolillah :D

Americanising Desi says:
11:31 pm

Dinky Mind says:
11:43 pm

~UglyDuckling: It's a vegetable, which is also a Sunnah to eat, and which sadly I dont like =(

~Sawj: Nahhh... He's no more a fatty aaloo now. He's Absannnrrrr Toreyyy :P or as some people say, torayeee! :/

~PD: With white rice I only like yellow daal and fried potatoes =D

~Asma: *Sighs* Susraal ja ker sab he kuch khana perta hay, now I know =P

~AD: that's why I wrote bottle gourd instead of just louki-kaddooing =D

Senilius says:
2:24 am

PD - Good one for Absar! :D

And yes you told me. I like it. :P

SAWJ is gone. ;)

BM - I like PD's better! :P

jingoist says:

Hmm, just before saying it 'ye nae khana' ...

For a second do think of a person, who doesn't even have any thing to eat... =(

I hope after realizing this, you would love to eat any thing that is available!

Dinky Mind says:

You're right Jingo lala, we have become very very ungrateful for all our blessings =( I think I should try my hands on louki next time =$
