Description
My kids both of them love it but then have to make 2 versions always one veg for my veggie gal ANISHA and non – veg for the rest of us . I used to like noodles but in between started prefering fried rice but now it’s back to noodles . As I mentioned before my entire schooling was in good shepherd public school in ooty . We were fed so well but not allowed to keep snacks or chocolates . Still we ( sindhu , sulu my best buddies and myself ) used to manage to have snacks through out the academic year . Our main staple snack was maggie noodles . Catch hot water from the hot water tap in our toilet mug . Run to our secret place near the trunk room . Break the noodles with the masala packet and wait for 3 minutes for it to cook . The longest 3 minutes of our lives . Gobble it out with the runny watery liquid and the noodles . Life was fun fun fun..
