I am back to the blogging world, after the birth of my second baby, my prince Nikhil. It has been a time of happiness and craziness, with very less sleep. Even after two moths, my sleep is not continuous, it is disrupted every 4-5 hours, but better than 1-2 hours. I can't follow the rule that you sleep when your baby is sleeping . I want to sleep, but my older one is wake during that time. Still we are managing without any family help. This Undan pori is the one of the dish I want to make it in home for long time.
I am grateful to all my friends who filled in to make this blog alive week after week with their wonderful guest posts, when I was having a toughest time with the newborn. Today my new born is 2 month old, adding a little relief. One thing I learned is that with your second child handling is easier compared to first one, as with our daughter we did not even know how to even hold her.

Hi Swathi... I tried these over my weekend for tea and my dad immediately sprang up - isn't this the undapori you get from thattukadas??? 🙂 Thank you so much for the nostalgia... I didn't have to add any extra water for the dough as the jaggery water was enough. This is definitely going to be made any time I feel like... Keep up the good work... Hopefully, your son will get better as time passes, just like my small 1... after sometime, you will end up complaining about the elder one as they will do anything to get your attention! 🙂
Swathi Iyer says
Rafeeda, glad you liked it, thanks for letting me know. Yes they are addictive.
You are right about the older one as she is does all the messy work to get her attention.

So good to have you back!! It must be tough to blog with 2 wee ones!!! I know I could easily become a new fan of these yummy treats...they look irresistible!
Elisabeth says
Hi Swathi, So glad to see you back in the "blogging world"...sorry, that I have not commenting until now, I'm just so super tired running back-and-forth every day helping my daughter, and sometimes spending the night, and to come home to my kitties, with my cat Prince at "death's door" (still hanging on, just so blind now)
Not easy with a newborn, but the second is always easier, especially when it's a boy...that's how my two are, the boy is the younger and was easier (of course, now they're adults with young ones of their own)
So glad that you are being able to sleep a little longer, but in a few months your little prince will sleep through the entire night, and will be easier for you! Can't believe he is already 2 months now. Bless his little heart!
I love your yummy wheat flour balls, especially with the added banana, and cardamom. Anything fried is my "weakness"...this is such a special treat, I could eat about 3 right now with a nice cup of hot tea!
Take care my dear friend; fondly, thinking of you!
xoxo
