Hi there! I’m a 48-year-old hardcore Malayalee woman from Kerala, married, and blessed (or occasionally cursed, depending on the day) with two kids. Being a true-blue Mallu, I come with all the bells, whistles, and tantrums that you’d expect—because why not keep life spicy?Cooking is my superpower; I can whip up a feast faster than my family can decide what they want. When I’m not playing chef, I’m either diving into a book, splashing colors on a canvas, or, let’s be honest, nagging my husband—my favorite pass time!I can be sweet as sugar if you’re on my good side, but cross me, and you’ll meet the hurricane version of me. Blame my raging hormones, my Mallu genes, or just life in general, but grumpiness is my default mode these days. (Let’s just say “patience” and I aren’t exactly on speaking terms.)All said and done, I love my chaotic, colorful life and wouldn’t trade it for the world—well, maybe for a quiet afternoon nap, but that’s negotiable!

Thai-style Lunch Box Thai-style Lunch Box
Green papaya salad is really a popular foot cart item in Thailand. It's sweet, spicy, sour and a little salty. The peanuts make it aromatic. It's a fun salad that lets you enjoy various tastes and textures in one dish. This was my favorite dish when I lived in Thailand and I used to eat it a lot, so I added it to a bento.You can substitute light brown sugar or raw cane sugar for palm sugar.It's important not to mix the green papaya in the salad too much, or it will lose its texture. Add chili pepper to taste for a zing. Recipe by Sarade-n

Vegetarian Lunch Vegetarian Lunch
It's not a vegetarian day, but my family has a tradition of occasionally enjoying a meal made entirely of vegetables and beans, with no meat or fish, to feel lighter while still getting all the necessary nutrients. Tofu and mushrooms are both high in protein and calcium, just like meat or fish, and if you know how to cook them in different ways, you’ll never get bored of eating them.
