Household chores are done and I just put 2 carrot cakes in the oven.One I will freeze in slices and the other one will be drizzled with bitter Belgium chocolate.Bauernbrot/farmer bread is rising and milk is gently boiling for homemade yogurt.
From the leftover green lentil soup I will make daal lentil parathas served with mango chutney, green chili raita and a plate with tomato,cucmber,carrot,green/red Bell pepper,red radish and red onion slices.To drink lemon water.For dessert 1/2 a pink grapefruit.
