A few posts on our blog…and we are already hooked. There is so much we want to write about tributes and recipes, but looks like that will have to wait a bit. We are now in London, getting ready for our presentation at The London Book Fair on April 15th. There is a lot of ‘first’ happening this month, our first blog, our first formal visit to a book fair, Pratibha’s first visit to UK…a lot of excitement…a lot of preparation.
With all this and the fact that we are yet to figure out how to be quick bloggers, we are going to be a bit slow here. It is going to take time to get things right, for instance, this morning the Image Header was missing. Good God! How did that happen? We could not figure that out, but we knew how to post the header immediately :).
While doing that, we also discovered that the blog title was not yet updated, it was still ‘a tribute to Pedatha’. We thought we had changed that on day 2, so there you go :). But it is a lot of fun and we are happy here.
As you can see it now, the title is: ‘whose food we eat, their song we sing’. When we first received the email from Mr. Parigi (Pedatha’s son) for the foreword in our book, this title was befitting to their relationship as mother and son. In the book, it is in first person. We have tweaked it into plural now so that all of us can pay our culinary tributes. According to Google, ‘whose food I eat, His song I sing’ is an ancient German proverb of 12th century.
