Let’s start our day with good food. I always question myself “eating low calorized food is better option or eating normal food in a small quantity is better option”. And I always give up my mind in front of my heart. My heart says eat good food in less quantity. I know it’s quite funny as because I am a foodie person. Food is such a thing it can transform your bad mood to better mood. Sometimes the same item in a slight twist gives a new taste and new look. So, I try to do something like that. Hope you all enjoy it while making it and eating it.
