Dear Padma, Here I am giving the recipe of 'pirandai thuvial'. Saw your thuvial too.Let me give a try and give you the feed back. thank you very much for giving super thuvial recipes.
Dear Krishnaamma, the picture of perandai belongs to my aunty Kavitha Ravi. I know that because I live with her. Don't you think it is wrong to take someone's picture without her permission?
Hi yuvan, I know that it is wrong to put someone's photo without her permission. But this is not her own photo, it is perandai photo. But I will not argue that I am correct. Some body requested to put greens photo and I searched in net. I got all the photos of greens and also this perandai photo. so I gave a statement in that thread, that I have taken all these photos from internet and also gave a thanks note also. And just put this photot here because of thuvials thread. you saw only this and asking like this. Hope I explained well. Even after you are not convinsed please let me know. I will remove this photo from this thread. ok ya? And one more thing, I have never taken any photo from any site, which they have copyright. See all my dress collection threads. If there is no copy right for the site, that I used to take. ok?
Hi Padma, I am preparing another list of recipes to put them in the forum. how are you? Keep in touch.
