For the last 3 years this recipe for Grenadian has been right up there at the top of my favourite meals. I have lost count .... and, our neighbour is joining us next week for supper - guess what is on the menu? Now so far I have used the already blended sachets, but I have only 2 left. So before long I'll start blending from my supply of haldi, methi, mirchi. I sincerely hope it's as good ? Knowing the Spicery it will be.

It's nice to hear the Run Down has always been such a hit with you Lyn! Happy spicing!

Real Comfort Food came out like a main course soup and as delicious as any. 2nd helpings followed but there is still plenty left for tonight and even tomorrow. What a wonderful "Free Sample" it was. Thank you.
