~Welcoming Winters ~
Winter has almost set in many northern parts of the
country .While cold winds from the mountains have lowered
the temperatures drastically, bright afternoon sun, hot cocoa
and loads of blooming flowers have beautifully spread their
warmth to welcome the season. Winters in India are much
different to their western counterparts. Winters here
are synonymous to afternoon family excursions-a sunny
weekend in park , picnic with kids or just lazying in sun .
Our winter excursion list has been made by my daughter
this time and as expected - visit to the zoo topped the list.
Besides regular animals we were lucky to spot a tiny baby
fox this time, the cute creature mesmerized my daughter so
much that back home I decided to create one on her plate .

The cold wave from the mountains has brought loads of
persimmons, strawberries and grapes . The large box of
strawberries and black grapes that we had picked up for a hearty
fruit salad became the ear and features of our peanut butter fox.
My family is crazy over strawberries ,besides adding the
antioxidant powerhouses to our smoothies, shakes and parfaits,
I love sprinkling some finely chopped chunks to my daily bowl
of oatmeal too. Before finally bidding adieu to these divine booties
by end of march, I never forget to freeze a bagful for the rest of
the year.
