Potato Masala
"Daddy, show me how to eat just like you." I love seeing our little guys take interest in their culture. Liam sees his daddy and I eat Indian food with our hands. Usually he just uses his fork or will use his hands. A few days ago during dinner, he noticed that daddy was using his hands in a very specific way. Then he repeatedly asked Joel to show him how to do it. He's definitely learning! There are certain things within Indian culture we push hard with the boys. One of which is what they call people. Like I have mentioned before, there are certain names for uncles, aunts, grandparents, elders, etc. However there are also things we want the boys to pick up on their own. I love when it happens naturally! Of course one of the other things you're all interested in... What were we eating for dinner?? Keema curry and potato masala.
