The first time I visited a real village was my susral’s village.
I always sleep so peacefully there – After two days in village, all my exhaustion is gone! Desi ghee ke parathay with sarson ka saag has become a great favourite of mine since I started visited my susrali village – now my village too!
By the way, Choitram chains always have frozen sarson ka saag – If you are still in Pakistan, maybe you can get your mum to make saag for you, put in airtight containers and freeze it properly! Then you can hand carry it to Dubai – I have seen people bring saag on the plane. Some say they put in booked luggage, but that a bit risky as it can be messy if it melts!
You cant smell it if its frozen. Its good backup to have here for a while once you come back. I may bring some the next time too! Meanwhile, the one I bought here is good enough – nice tadhka and its really good, coupled with a nice desi ghee ka paratha that thankfully I can make!

Sarson kay sag ka pratha desi ghe wala is my favourite one. I just love it. Tabhi to mera tummy………………
Then when’ll u invite me for desi ghee ka paratha……..
Gaon waalay hain – thoda ghairat ka masla ho jaata hai. Its better for him only to meet his male friends in person than me. I can meet females anytime – We are just old fashioned that way.
it reminded me of my mother’s cousins village in multan … i went there when i was very young ,…. but i still remember the place …. it was very beautiful …. i remember there was a bakri ka bacha :d and me and my brother would play with him and he would run with us …. The day we were leaving the goat was standing on the wall and looking at us as she knew what was happening looked sad to me…. but the thing i hate about village is Machar lol there are too many of them

Woh to aik masla hai ji – Aap ke Ahsan bhai is not in favour of guests who are not his direct friends. Meray bhai bhi nahin!
He is just that way. I have a cousin in Dubai from my mothers side – I hardly get to meet her either!
My husband is very conservative actually – so we dont socialise too much that way. The only friends I get to meet are his own! Not mine.
Dont worry – I will post pice some time.
I have to keep my husband happy first and foremost – Blogs he doesnt mind – personal meetings he doesnt like – sorry about that.
