DONUTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So last night we took Aashini to the doctor for a check-up, so we decided to walk to the mall for dinner :) We had some AWESOME Turkish food! We had a great time hanging out and chilling for dinner :) The exciting thing was that when we went upstairs we saw that our FAVORITE donut shop had opened up in this mall!!!! The closest one before was an hour away! It's a fun treat to have here and there ;) We bought a dozen of them :) (one of them even has an Oreo topping!)They have some really yummy flavors... but they also have some weird flavors too!!!
Take this one for example... the "It's Greek to Me" Donut!
It says: "Creamy cheese sprinkled with Italian herbs and topped with olives - a taste of the Mediterranean" haha! ON A DONUT!
Then there's the "Mama Mia" Donut! haha! The ingredients are: "A sprinkle of Italian herbs and sauteed garlic on oodles of cheese - just like how mama makes it" haha! Does YOUR mama put cheese and garlic on a donut??

Hi! I am Jana, Rachel's mom! You posted on my blog, SaudiStitcher, and I finally got around to finding YOUR blog so I can post back! LOL!
WHERE in South Asia are you?! I saw the camels (plenty of those around here too!) and wondered. As for donuts! We have two House of Donut's here (really Dunkin Donuts!) and I am able to get my Apple Fritter fix once in a while. BUT the best thing is that when I was coming back from Jeddah last time(at least 3 months ago! It is 3 hours away) I SAW a KRISPY KREME going in on the street we were driving on! I can't WAIT to get back there and get some! And right next door was a QUIZNOS! It's really nice when something you love and recognize comes along, isn't it? Your baby is very cute! Do you know Suzy Bomgardner? She's a close friend of Rachels (and Chris, too, along with her husband, Tim) Anyway. She has a baby boy named Oscar. He, too, is a real cutie! You can see him via a link on Rachel and Chris' blog. Enjoy the donuts! Mama Mia!

First off - I just got back from the gym! I have to walk past the donut shop both there and back and its torture! I can't believe I have to look at this! Blah!!!

Those donuts remind me of some of the stuff we saw in Japan. They actually had a curry donut, which I bit into once thinking it was something else, on man - NASTY!

"Just like Momma!" ha-ha!

The Greek one sounds gross, but I would totally try the Italian one! Maybe that's just the pregnancy cravings talking though. :)

I can't believe they opened a donut shop there!! All these cool things now that we're gone!

I like that plaid one in the top picture. I think I would eat it just because I like plaid.

These look so yummy- well the ones you picked out anyways!! I think I feel a craving coming in the near future, as long as there are no olives or garlic involved! I'll save that for my pasta! :-)

Cooking!

Cooking is sooo much harder here. THis is how you "puree" vegetables when you don't have a blender or food processor (or power). Some people have those things, but most people don't. This is my friend Gita. She's mashing up some onions. It's a marble slab that's not polished and they use a big rounded rock and just roll/mash! It's cool!!

Protesting

There's some political stuff going on in our city (and now the country) right now. People are peacefully fighting against corruption. It's been very interesting to follow. Tonight there was some protesting in our neighborhood. Here are some more protesting pictures. There will probably be more protesting to come... we'll see what happens!

Jaya's Engagement!

My good friend Jaya (Mayank's sister that lives in M-town) - just got engaged!  On Sunday, I took the trip to M-town to go to her Engagement Ceremony (or Ring Ceremony).  It was a lot of fun :)!   First Stop - Beauty Parlor!  We walked a little ways down the street to a lady's house.  The beauty parlor was in one of the rooms in her house.  Jaya had already been to her house that morning to get her hair done, but now it was time for the makeup.  This beauty parlor was interesting because it only had 2 light bulbs in the whole room (and they were the energy saver kind that were dimmer than the regular ones), so it wasn't that bright inside the room.   Here's a pic of Jaya in the chair getting her makeup done.   Notice that her hair is crimped.  They use the crimper on people's hair when it's a special occasion - awesome!!! They put a  bindi  on her head and then the lady painted more and made it super fancy. Here's the finished product (after 1.5 hours)!  She...
