    Haan haan. My boss just walked in and asked for a snack. I better run to the kitchen. Chota rules the roost!

    My friend got solitaire earrings from them. Price is competitive and quality is also good. I buy mine only from GRT like stores because I do want the VVS or IF ones which aren't available all that much at Costco. Also the ones in Costco are H,I colors and I think it's best to buy F/Gs if you are buying. My friend says you can't really see the difference between an I and an F but an F is an F. So.... I have heard good reviews about blue Nile online. I haven't bought anything from there personally. Now that this comes up, it's been a while since the last purchase. Time for the necklace :)


    I'm in TX. You should come. I'll eat extra BBB today for your sake.

    Idli batter, dosa batter, adai batter, Tam Brahm style food. Now only if I find someone to make the biriyani. It's all home style, low oil, regular stuff. Sometimes as a bonus some vadas come too. I've not taken the grinder out since I discovered here.
    And I'm having a major tantrum because DH took the insta pot out of my amazon shopping cart along with the vitamix.
    Now why did he not order the washing machine with blue tooth and extra delicates draw?
    We do need the washing machine that I can turn on from my phone. If the loading clothes happens that way, even better. And if there is a phone app to remove from washer and load the dryer, that's bliss. When will those things be invented?

    I wish at least that damn Rotimatic - One touch for fresh rotis and wraps! comes to US with affordable price.
    I do buy the dosa batter and idly batter from the shop. Not a great fan.
    When ever ( WHEN) i make dosa batter, my dosa's come awesome :)

    :roflmao::roflmao:

    He does it when he's around, JAG.

    I bought the atta mixer and it's sitting in the kitchen cabinet occupying space. No wonder I don't get the insta pot. I forgot about that gadget.

    The Indian store batter didn't cut it for me so I kept grinding until someone here on IL asked me to look for an Indian cooking lady. That solved my batter issues for now. She makes it like I do so it's fantastic. Keeping quality isn't there just like our idli batter but I don't keep for too long.

    Edited - I can't even get my emojis right.

    This is my wish list, too!

    They do make a combo washer dryer which saves having to flip laundry from the washer to the dryer. I'm waiting impatiently for them to make larger, better versions. :D

    What's the difference between a rice cooker and a slow cooker?

    Any advantage in getting a rice cooker? :confused:

    Rotimatic is probably the biggest scams ever. Yet to see one real review.

    Apparently they're just beginning to ship orders to the West Coast now.

    It is way too expensive!! I don't think I'd spend that amount even if bought rotis from our little hole-in-the-wall shop and ate it every day for an entire year!
