Coming from a region of the country, that grows, brews and cures its own tea to the finest around the world its no surprise I am a tea lover. ( love coffee too) The varieties of tea that comes from India & the world, along with Indian spices definitely make them binge-worthy. Ginger, lemon, lemongrass, cinnamon, nutmeg, mint, aniseed, jasmine, saffron and zillion other things to tango with tea. My favourite- the sulaimani from northern Kerala... truly zesty, healthy and it is the season to glug on tea

Clam Chowder from the great Pacific Northwest. ( Note the beard.) Get warm, Get cozy with Chowdah.

Winter Warmer
Indian spices create a warming sensation. The scent of this appetizer is intoxicating, the taste is divine. And it's easy.
Recipe from The Calcutta Cricket Club in Calgary.

I just love eating warm soup or chili on a cold winter's night. What soup could be better than minestrone? Lots of veggie goodness plus pasta. Yummy!
