Today I’d like share some pictures from a phenomenal dinner on Christmas Eve with just our two families – ours and Vijay and Priya’s. A small gathering with loads of fun!

Indian faire for a warm and comforting dinner

We decided to do and Indian dinner menu on this evening. Anjali on mock tails, Vijay made the appetizer course, I prepared the main courses, and my daughter Sri prepared the desserts,

Cauliflower pea curry
