I always say this to people who ask me what you earned from blogging??? I earned true friends….some are virtual and some I have met in real…Valar is one such friend…We had gala time cooking, shopping, reviewing, etc., when I was staying in Bangalore. Despite of being busy with her home baking and ill health Valar sent this scrumptious butterscotch blondies with pecan nuts recipe. I am so glad to have you as a part of this ‘Christmas and New Year Bakes’ series…Thank you so much for being my guest Valar…
It’s been long since I updated my blog. I haven’t posted anything in the blog for a while. When Lubna of ” Yummy Food ” asked me to do a guest post for her Christmas baking series I immediately told yes. Thank you Lubna for giving me this wonderful opportunity to do a guest post. She has a wonderful blog and I always admire her passion towards blogging. She is very good friend of mine and we became friends through blogging. When we were staying in the same apartment in Bangalore, we used to go out together, have lunch together and also we used to go out for reviews along with my other blogger friends Satrupa Dash and Deepasri Deb. We four often have potluck together. I remember how fun filled those days where. I miss you all guys.
