GENERAL LIFESTYLE
I am very thankful to God because I am born in Goa and living in Goa.
Everything of Goa is very very good. The Climate, the people, the food, the festivals, the eduction system the natural beauty and the communal harmony. I live in Bicholim in a Joint family.
The Climate here is an equable climate so there is no much heat and no much cold . Mostly the climate is very nice. Coming to food, the most staple diet is fish, curry and rice. but some people also prefer vegetarian diet. The dishes prepared will have some unique feature of each household.
Time and again I will be writing about my favourite recipes as they are prepared at my home.
