"And why exactly are you doing this?" quizzed my senior citizen ,originally hailing from Amritsar, Passionate Punjabi,"Food is magic" believer cook aunty in utter disbelief..😒😒
Before I could reply,aunty retorts her point again"Makki di roti and sarson daa saag without white butter,no gajar ka halwa in winters,no lassi ,no paneer and dal tadka without gheau(ghee in punjabi).Bacche agar khaana enjoy nahin kitaa te kee haasil kitta.(If you didnt enjoy food then what did you gain)...😧 As long as health allows eat and make merry.💃" She closes her arguments and gets back to making butter chicken 🐔 for the rest of my non vegan family..
Yayy Its my first veganniversary today🎂 and my Mom's Birthday too!! And to answer my Maa's rhetorical question "ek spoon gajar halwa se kyaa farak padegaa(what difference will a spoon make)" It wouldn't Maa but it just helps maintain the vegan status quo that began by denying the Pucca Punjabi me,the sinful pleasures of lassi,makhan,ghee and dahi ... #veganhappy 😊😊
