I thought it might be useful to share my Covid experience for the benefit of my friends and family around the world who may or may not have had Covid.

30.10.20 A date I will never forget 🥰!!

57 guests including 3 Ambassadors (Brazilian, Argentinian & Indian) their wives and the German Defense Attaché and his wife - how humbled, honored and grateful am I to have fed them and showcased Indian cuisine! My heart is full. My biggest moment was when the Brazilian Ambassador asked for my business card (omgosh!!). And Mrs. Ambassador of India said she absolutely loved everything and that I had given her ideas - imagine!! Beyond honored!

For as long as I can remember my mum baked a fruit cake for Christmas. It was her signature bake and everyone who has ever had the fortune of being fed her cake swears by it. She never claimed it as her own or her mother's (duh my grandma never baked), she found a recipe in a magazine (may have been the iconic Vanitha) and tried it. It may have been by Mrs. Thangam Philip the pioneer of hospitality education in India.
