Theme of the Week- Orange ,White & Green

Theme of the week! Well, this week Friday falls on 26th Jan - Republic day of India. Being from the state of Gandhi bapu , I can never forget this day , and I truly want to celebrate this with all of you.

Read below for the theme of this week:

1. Cook anything with 3 colors of flag of India. (Orange , White and Green – you can cook dish finally resulting in any of these 3 colors / any single color / all of 3 , some variation in color of final dish is perfectly Ok . :)) For example visit to my steamed pulao having all 3 colors together...

2. Create anything having combination of 3 colors. i.e. you can just catch a picture of array of vegetables/birds/flowers having these 3 colors, or click anything else like say 3 scarves of these 3 colors, or anything you can imagine from your side.

I think this is a good chance for all of us to do something creatively. Just show up anything with our three basic colors Orange , White and Green. You can send any number of entry , like you can cook any number of dish, can show something else with 3 colors of Indian Flag, and show case anything else too. We will have many options really if we think about.
I, myself - is getting many ideas right now as I am writing about this just now. Your final day to send entries is Friday. After that I will do the round up for this week.

I am expecting something high for the first time from all of you buddies as I think we should value the Freedom we are gifted with and should have pride for the Matrubhumi we belongs to. Though we might be in different parts of this world, the fact remains unchanged that we all are Indians. Let us be together virtually this way and have something nice together.
My beloved Non-Indian friends are also welcome to be a part of this event and celebrate our spirit.
So, let all foodies start together, strech your mind a bit and come up with novel ideas , and let us all celebrate it together. Three cheers for India.

Will come back soon with my entries, reach me at pooja18@gmail.com , and enjoy the spirit with zeal and zest .
