Though I bake
everyday, it has been ages since I posted anything new on my blog. Last year saw
lots of changes in my life and somehow I lost the drive to type and type and
post. I had to close down my website due to maintenance issues. Got back to
blogger platform. And then yesterday I received a message on fb messenger. Someone
had bookmarked my website and naturally she could not find it anymore. She asked
me if I was still baking. Yes, I am always baking but had somehow lost the will
to post them. Her sweet words made me realise that there are people out there
who love my recipes and are looking forward to them. It was a great lift-me-up.
So now I am back to posting and I will really try to be regular about it.
