Carrot Cupcakes

 Carrot   Cupcakes Everyone seems to love Carrot Cake,  what I also like about them is how wonderfully moist they are and how flavorful they taste. I love this Carrot Cupcake recipe because it's so easy to make. No mixer is required. The time consuming part is the grating of the fresh carrots. I have included applesauce in the cupcake batter which, along with the oil, makes these cupcakes so moist. But, if you like, you could use an equal amount of grated apple or even crushed pineapple. You can also add 1/2 cup (120 ml) of currants or raisins to the batter. Carrot Cakes became popular with the health food craze of the 1970s. There are many theories on the origin of this cake, some say it descended from the English's baked carrot puddings or European steamed carrot puddings. Others say it may have come from German carrot breads. Carrots were used in European sweet cakes since the Middle Ages when other sweeteners were hard to find or just too expensive.

Belly- Slimming Detox Water - Infused water

Belly- Slimming Detox Water - Infused water


People like me hate drinking water but which is completely bad for the body, reason why I hate drinking water is -plain and boring so i came out with different Detox so that i can drink good amount of water, Detox are really good for hair, skin and it cleans are blood by removing impurity.


 This version is very British – the flavour combination of strawberry, cucumber and mint inspired by garden parties and jugs of Pimms cocktails – though there’s no alcohol involved in this one of course! Both my husband and my daughter like this recipe and I particularly like the mint flavour that cuts through – very refreshing on a hot summers day, if the sunshine ever decides to come back again!

So what’s special about water? If you are like me and a lot of people, even though you know its good for you, you still find drinking a large amount of water each day a real chore. But there really is no reason that drinking water has to be so plain and boring. One great example of making water more tasty and more healthy is simply adding some cucumber in. It’s called infusing, and you’ve probably seen it at a restaurant or in a spa.


There are many benefits of fruit infused water, and cucumber water in particular. Cucumber water is special because besides making it easier to get hydrated, it is great for overall body health in many ways.


NOTE: I have used regular normal water since now it is winter,
but all detox water should be cold, or keep it in fridge overnight.

Mappilai Samba Rice Kanji |The Bridegroom’s Samba Rice Kanji

Mappilai Samba Rice Kanji |The Bridegroom’s Samba Rice Kanji Mappillai Samba is a native variety of rice, which is red in colour and is grown predominantly in Tamil Nadu. It’s well suited to organic farming because it requires hardly any fertilisers or pesticides. Unfortunately, along with other native varieties of rice, Mappillai Samba has disappeared from our farms and markets; instead, people are going for highly processed, nutritionally inferior white rice. Very few passionate traditional farmers still grow such rice now. In olden days, it is essential for a man to show his bravery through many traditional sports. These sports are conducted to test their physical as well as their mental strength.
