Add little by little and keep kneading the dough. Stop when it is firm enough and doesn't stick to your hands.<br /><br />And if you want to try the other dish, you might want to get some ingredients from an Indian store. I am not sure if all the ingredients would be easily available everywhere! <br /><br />Do let me know how it turned out and if there is any other recipe I could help you with :DTranquility Speakshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11973619033004372917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-188622209099174931.post-49830317763422811362009-09-03T08:18:18.077-05:002009-09-03T08:18:18.077-05:00Hi Diana,

Some because of memories of me laying in front of the window coloring, watching the rain while my mom irons. I love the fall too. To me, Fall represents the perfect age. Not too old to enjoy the simple things and not too young to have experienced them. I can't wait for fall to start here, I just wish we had the kind of trees that dropped the big leaves. I would love to rake some up and take my grandkids out to jump in them! Just one of the simple joys that they will miss. Enjoy your days, Di. I thoroughly enjoy hearing about them.Terriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05570660485009183858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-188622209099174931.post-32305485363070997152009-09-01T16:44:21.325-05:002009-09-01T16:44:21.325-05:00Sorry Barb I really thought that Caden looked olde...Sorry Barb I really thought that Caden looked older than two!<br /> Love DiDianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11429812875586479256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-188622209099174931.post-41027064859793548672009-09-01T16:42:45.759-05:002009-09-01T16:42:45.759-05:00Hi Dr. John,

I really enjoyed your post today, and id...Hi Diana,<br />I really enjoyed your post today, and ideas for rainy days. It is the wierdest thing but our weather right now is hotter than it has been all summer. The leaves are turning color, and it is stifling hot, especially during the day, but it nicely cools off at night. And it is calm, no wind, then I have to wonder, is it the calm before the storm. Don't get me wrong, I am not complaining one bit, because I love hot weather, but it is hard to wrap my mind around it. I heard the geese honking, and saw them flying south already...how on earth do they know when the weather is like this? It is a bit scary to think they are leaving so soon despite the heat. What do they know that I don't? Anyway, send some of those soup recipes our way, I am sure we are going to need them in the near future too.
