Jayshree a Vegan? Naw, can't be, this is the first time I heard about it and I've known her, here, since the Hello India doors opened.

The most common vegan joke, Jayshree, is: "How do you know a person is a vegan? They tell you each and every time you talk to them. ". OK, OK, I learned a long time ago never to let the truth get in the way of a good story. Grin.

Truth though, teasing and joking aside, I'm very glad you're here via internet, I quite enjoy your company and stories.

Another truth; I'm sure you are glad you are here only via the internet. After a bit of a cold spell, it's warned way up to balmy minus twenty one degrees Celsius today! ;-)

Hi Jim, bbeing vegan is tough so I stayed a vegetarian! I love yoghurt and pizza! Hmm, given this joke, I just became aware that I don’t write about food all that often, so maybe I will write about life as a vegetarian in multiple countries. lol. Thank you for being here since the early days! I cannot disagree about not missing the minus 20 degree winter days in Columbus, Oh! Happy Thanksgiving!

Nice! I love rhubarb too after I discovered its tangy tasting sauce in London! Happy Thanksgiving!

I am so happy you tried it! Being from a German family, we grew it in our garden since I was a kid. I haven’t growing it in a few years though. It makes a lovely chutney!

Pecan pie and ice cream - that is a winning combo! I have never tried to bake one - my culinary skills don't extend that far but there is always hope. Yes, you should try it again :-)
