100 words on Saturday Idli Day!

Every Sunday we have Idli for Breakfast. Children  want only  Idli. If there is  something else,  there is  great pandemonium. I  ensure that Idli paste is available for Sunday. One  Saturday we had some guests . We served them Dosas. Next day  there was no paste so omelette  and bread was made for breakfast. "Why no Idli?' " I am not hungry'',  "I don't want breakfast."Children left the room. Only I and  my DIL  were left. We did not know whether to laugh or brood. But we got a lesson. Sunday has to be Idli Day! We want our Treasure Intact.

    This is the same thing that happens at our place. Instead of idlys, sundays for us is English breakfast - bread, eggs, tea and all that :)

    1. Yes Anil you are right. My experience is that South Indians don't like bread. They somehow feel that bread is for the people who are sick.

  8. We all like idlis, but there is no particular day for it.Since now a days we get fresh ready made batter, we can have any time. We like all kinds of breakfast, bread, oats idly , uppama, and so on. Today my husband made masala dosa, which as usual was very nice. Nice to read about your family's likes and dislikes.
