As the name suggests I am trying to map my food journey, the beginings, the regional and travel influences, the changing tastes and the desire to pass on the stories and traditional recipes to the next generation.

Another highlight in Sankranti was the 'Bor nahan' which literally translates to Bathe in Berries. This is a function organised for small children. SO if there is a toddler in the house apart from the haldi-kumkum there is also a bor-nahan. All kids in the vicinity are invited to this function. Small pieces of sugarcane, peas and chocolates are mixed with sweet and sour berries and poured over the 'toddler of the house's' head and all other kids run around collecting as much as they can to eat and share with their friends.
