I could so relate to your situation. My dad does the same...every small fight we have over trivial issues gets on my dad&#39;s nerves and u shud see his face afterwards:/. Fortunately both me and my husband love to watch all kind of films but the problem is he hates SRK :(. He won&#39;t watch SRK films so I have to watch it on my own. I take my white brit friend along and she can actually understand hindi now :D. And no we don&#39;t hold hands either :(...lol. Loved the recipe...alu kabli is my all time favourite! <br /><br />SohiniCassia Barkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04109285440657334477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-34911238907280774092012-01-12T05:10:14.192-05:002012-01-12T05:10:14.192-05:00That is so sweet of your mom.
