5 Minute Chia Ice-Cream Sundae

Chia seeds are something everybody is talking about. You might have read about it in some of the blogs, health and nutrition articles, Youtube videos, Insta, Pinterest and where not. I got introduced to Chia last year when I was in Mumbai. I was having falooda kulfi at Juhu when I noticed those weird fish egg like things in my serving. I asked the vendor what it was. Sabza, he said. "Yeh kya hota h??". then he explained we that these seeds have cooling properties and are beneficial for our body. Then the curious me googled its English name, followed by its health benefits. Soon after I started consuming this. I loved those seeds in my sharbat and ice creams. Like ways, I came up with this recipe while I was thinking of the ways to incorporate these into my daily schedule.

My Take On: Malaka Spice

Hey lovelies, I have a friend who is transferring to NCR this weekend. It all happened on such a short notice that we didn’t get enough time to plan for anything. She received the confirmation on Thursday, hence we planned an evening out on the very day. The irony of this farewell party is that the person departing was on fast.:P.

I have Memories attached to this place. My very first visit was in Chandigarh when I was in College 2nd year. Back in those days, vacations were fun. My college gang and I used to go to Chandigarh for training. And trust me that used to be the golden era, especially when I was a day scholar. It’s not that I was a spoilt brat or my parents were strict or difficult. But I just loved this time as I enjoyed being independent. So, one fine day we all decided to visit Elante Mall. It was such a hype at that time, the new big thing in the UT. While exploring we reached Underdogs. It was such a fancy place and a really new concept. We were really impressed by its infusion of sports with dining and the bar. There were punching bags hanging at one place, snooker tables, foosball, etc. at the oth...
