Shrimps and potatoes make good combo, especially when made sambal or spicy fry like this. I've posted on my Prawn & Potato Sambal long time back. Check HERE .

Rishie received a Chelsea Stationery set from his Papa, who is a hardcore fan of Chelsea FC, Champions of Europe. Hubby is slowly turning Rishie into another fan of the club by getting him quite a number of original Chelsea merchandised. From jerseys to stationery set now! :) Ashika too wanted to pose with the set...but moved on to the marine tank to pose with her favourite Nemos! Enjoy the pics for now...see ya!   Okay, I'm tired!!! Time for milk...bye all! ;) Click to Join my Giveaway ~> 3rd Blogoversary GIVEAWAY!  

I always prefer chocolate brownies more than cakes. Any brownie that is chewy and gooey tops my list! So does this one. I gotto admit it's heavenly rich and I can't have more than a piece at one go, same with my Hubby...lol! But as usual, our kids enjoyed it. Nothing can stop them from chocolate indulgence :) HORLICKS BROWNIES Click HERE for the original recipe in pdf!!!     Check out my 3rd Blogoversary Giveaway !!!
