Over the summer, we were driving up to Atlantic City one weekend to go hang out at the beach and eat some epic Pho when Kavya started talking about bottoms. I don’t know what they’re teaching her at this daycare…

Video: Riding Underwater Scooters in Oahu, Hawai’i
Since we had already jumped out of a plane in Oahu, we decided to go the opposite direction this time. We found out about riding around in the ocean on submersible scooters through Groupon, and couldn’t resist. Even my 73-year-old…

Photo of the Week: Fortune Cookie Factory in San Francisco, California

Parathas are whole-wheat Indian flatbread that can be as healthy as you want them to be. You ca eat them plain, or stuffed, for breakfast or lunch.

She is very Punjabi, so doesn’t understand the concept of “no ghee” and finds the idea of a dry paratha unfathomable, hence the glistening parantha in the photo above.
