Oh, I'm dying to have some Indian (from India) food, but most of it is kind of difficult. I've found some recipes, though.

My mom and I have to laugh now. I don't know what it is--some kind of aphasia--but she reads a lot and can't pronounce words well. One time she talked about going to that tourist spot in Southern California, Venus Beach. (It's really venice.) She tends to say "prostrate" when she means "prostate". Well, now, she's learned to nudge me and say, "Is that right?" Used to be she'd get mad at me for correcting her. Isn't it interesting how relationships are? Oh, she still nags, but I don't let it get to me anymore. I either ignore it or tell her I've had enough ... very quietly and effectively, at least for awhile. :)
