I do not make it but love it. when MIL was here, she had used I think the same proportion of ghee as the sabudana and I could not eat it at all, it felt so greasy and heavy.

I got good results everytime. <br />ANother thing is also the kind of javvarisi... some are too starchy. <br /><br />Commute would be a big criteria for sure..

I tried it once and haven't looked back. I soak the sabudana overnight and even then it comes out all fluffy and separate in the morning. after just spending exactly 5 minutes on it.And half the Mirihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13676408925598600874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27140791.post-45927260060990211752011-01-09T22:02:26.554-05:002011-01-09T22:02:26.554-05:00reminds me of home,..;-)reminds me of home,..;-)notyet100https://www.blogger.com/profile/12079779480407514805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27140791.post-60806764487179460192011-01-09T21:02:39.528-05:002011-01-09T21:02:39.528-05:00yes, definitely closer to home, if there's a c...yes, definitely closer to home, if there's a choice! I did 1.15 hrs in the morning and 1.30-2.15 hrs everyday for 4 months. Left me dead tired in the evening. Couldn't help being in a crappy mood most days! One good reason why we moved relatively closer to work. <br /><br />Sabudana khichdi looks yumm!

It was a nightmare. Now I am ten minutes away. Alas the car is still the only means. Like Nupur, I'd love to work from home -- on the other hand, I might commute further for my own business! ;)Lindahttp://outofthegarden.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27140791.post-10785006112394853882011-01-09T17:35:07.400-05:002011-01-09T17:35:07.400-05:00Hey Indo..

Nice start to a new year.<br /><br />Regarding your question, it all depends.. is it a commute (one-way) of 1 hour or 2 hours? If it is anything less than or equal to 1 hour I wouldn't think much about it. 2 hours is probably a no-no unless the job is SS blogs herehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14277887171436832914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27140791.post-68881564620984232122011-01-09T12:13:38.897-05:002011-01-09T12:13:38.897-05:00Thats a delicious upma, yet to try..Thats a delicious upma, yet to try..Priya Sureshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877565823603705723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27140791.post-25081490133138943712011-01-09T09:59:42.822-05:002011-01-09T09:59:42.822-05:00Commute time is of utmost importance to me- becaus...Commute time is of utmost importance to me- because it is "dead time" lost twice a day, 5 days a week for most commuters. Unless you knit or read or listen to language tapes or NPR or otherwise do something fun and productive during the commute! Currently my commute is 20-25 minutes door to door using public transport and my own two legs and I LOVE it. <br /><br />My dream job would be Nupurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03890441057480820053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27140791.post-27645164417992665782011-01-09T08:35:37.024-05:002011-01-09T08:35:37.024-05:00I guess I didnt reply to your question, well i don...I guess I didnt reply to your question, well i dont work so i really cant commemt but then if i was looking for a job i would keep in mind the distance one has to travel every day i would say shorter the better as then you can leave home late as you only have to travel less and come home early too.Finlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12122357811540919609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27140791.post-46753886168450491702011-01-09T08:35:16.239-05:002011-01-09T08:35:16.239-05:00this is my favourite and the pic looks droolworthy...this is my favourite and the pic looks droolworthy !
