  • When @teaforturmeric wrote our Dawat Guide a few months ago one of the questions we got the most was: how do I host and not be tired? Izzah and I are practically people and have lots of tips to make the whole thing easier, but we can’t make any one tired proof. Hosting is tiring friends - but you know what? It’s 100% worth it. It’s a way for us to show the people we care that we care about them and if we are fortunate enough a way to celebrate a friend on their special day. I didn’t have to host a tea for my friend @abinadeivendran on her birthday, I got to. See the difference? As I gear up for my little ones birthday I am reminded of the same sentiment. I don’t have to throw a party, I get to. I don’t have to make a cake, I get to. In a world where we can account for our weekends weeks in advance it’s wonderful to be able to make the deliberate choice to spend time with the people we love. And stuff them silly if we can. Yes yes I am annoying Aunty who says “acha thora sa aur kha lo”. Have a great weekend friends ❤️. . . . #foodblogger #dawat #torontoblogger #hosting #hostingaparty
  • Hard Question: what’s a healthy dish you crave when it’s cold outside?Trying to rewire my brain otherwise this snowy weather will have me alternating between carbs and fried carbs 😂 Baked Chicken Fajitas are easy peasy and I usually have the ingredients too! . . . . #comfortfood #traybake #chicken #igerstoronto #torontoblogger
  • Do you have corny nicknames for your kids that you wouldn’t use in front of your friends? I do and I can’t figure out if it’s ok to share with all of you 😂 My first born - you know the kids that truly transforms you - recently turned 9 and had a super fun rock climbing themed party @lifetimeathleticmississauga This was cake round two (the first collapsed) and the design is @katiescreativebaking - our round one collapsed but for a one day job this ain’t so bad 😬😆 Zara Zara Mama Ka _______ led point on the cookies and has casually mentioned once or twice that her friends talked about the cookies (inspired by @thefrostedswirlbakeshop) more than the cake lol. Well done not so little one, well done. #birthdays #squarecake #cake #cookies #rockclimbingparty
  • It’s cold outside. Someone pass me a plate of kababs. These simple pan fried Chicken Kababs are on the blog. I like pretending I’m fancy, make them longer and on my grill pan for those beautiful lines. Then I serve them to the kids on plastic plates on top of plastic table mats 😂 #momlife Recipe link on my IG profile! . . . #kababs #pakistanifood #chicken #pakistanirecipes #food52 #dawndotcom #torontoblogger
  • Getting ready to go to bed, thinking about tomorrow and pumped because this Chanay ki Daal is on my meal plan. Also extra excited because I’ll be meeting one of my IG friends tomorrow! Can you guess who? . . #pakistanifood #daal #torontoblogger #instantpot
  • It’s terribly not grown up of me, but I love Pizza. Do you? I also kinda love leftovers especially when I can be enterprising desi mama and turn them into pizza! My Canadian friends and I just finished celebrating thanksgiving weekend and this Tandoori Turkey Pizza is just one of six awesome ways that I’m sharing for using up your delicious Turkey leftovers! What are some of your favourite things to put on pizza? . . . . @canadianturkey #sponsored #canadianturkeymonth #halalfoodiegta #torontoblogger #pizza #feedfeed #muslimahblogger #tandoori
  • I had two dreams and they both came true. I got my kids to pack their own healthy lunches AND finish a cup of coffee while it was hot all at the same time. Miraculous right? While I'd like to take full credit, most of it actually goes to the fabulous @LoblawsON in-store registered dietitian who met with them, walked them around the grocery store and helped them become Bento Box bosses. In 30-minutes no less. They even make snacks for me now. Swipe left to see what we got up to! #foodloversunite #raiseafoodlover #sponsored . . . #torontoblogger
  • Is it hot where you are or does it feel like Fall? Doing some early AM meal planning for the week and I can’t figure out if I’m planning for summer weather or fall weather 😂 aah life in Canada 🇨🇦 This Chicken & Rice Soup with Chillies hits the mark all year round. On the meal plan it goes! Linking my post on meal planning and my soup recipe in my stories and on my profile! . . . . . #flourandspiceblog #soup #comfortfood #feedfeed #foodie #foodblogger #torontoblogger
  • Is it Pasta O’Clock yet? Let’s hope not because I am doing something I’ve never done before - putting myself on a timer to get this Sun Dried Tomato & Chicken Pasta post up! Its been a busy week and I’ve procrastinated a little too so now I am publicly pushing myself to get it done! Can I do it? We shall found out! It’s 11:30AM Toronto time ... 1..2...3... GO! . . . . . . #flourandspiceblog #pasta #torontoblogger #oakville #foodie #feedfeed #f52grams
  • Fact: my husband doesn’t like Chana Pulao. I love it. What do you like that your significant other doesn’t? Share away! . . . . #pakistaniblogger #pakistanifood #pulao #rice #delish #food #foodie #f52grams #feedfeedindia #dawndotcom
  • Do you guys watch @fixerupper_hgtv ??? We are OBSESSED with that show. Whenever Chip gets done with his portion he “passes the baton” on to Jo. Well folks I’ve inadvertently passed on the brownie baton to my 5 year old and there’s no getting it back! The easiest brownie recipe is saved in my highlights where I probably made them for the last time. When do you think I can pass on the Biryani Baton? . . . #flourandspiceblog #pakistaniblogger #brownies #torontoblogger #oakville #chocolate #foodie #feedfeedchocolate
  • What does home mean? So many of us have several - the homes we live in now, our parents homes, the countries we grew up in. Is it a function of time? I spent 11+ years in Jeddah, lived in Karachi for less yet Karachi has always been home ever more so than the city of my birth. Am loving being back here eating basics like Aaloo Qeema, the dish I cook because it reminds me of home (Karachi), at my other home (Toronto). Those of you following my insta stories know I’m eating a lot more too 😂 Perhaps home is just the comfort of being taken care of by loved ones, of being able to exhale and let go of ones guard, of old strong relationships, and new ones that feel age old. What do you think? What is home to you? . . . . #flourandspiceblog #pakistanifood #qeema #karachi
