After plentiful of
tasty morning break fast "Pepper Idly", i and my son sit together to
prepare for his exams. As i planned ,I decided to prepare "Idly Upma"
for the evening. My son hate upma. When i told him to have upma he refused initially
and after tasting a spoon, he loved the idly upma and emptied everything. It is
a tearful job to peel small onion and thinking of the taste its nothing.
