When Zarah joined up with me on this she was also very much in favor of including photos, but I insisted that we should be encouraging people to click on over to the original posting. I thought by not having a photo we would do that, but you're right - they would still need to go to the original post for the recipe. Photos definitely draw people in!<BR/><BR/>Hi Reid! I agree - the recipes on the Indian food blogs very often seem more approachable than those in cookbooks. I don't know if it's the recipes themselves or the knowledge that you can always leave a comment or send an email asking for advice!<BR/><BR/>Thanks Alice!<BR/><BR/>Hi Indira! You're very welcome - I really do like your blog very much! I think the way you've written your recipes is perfect. I particularly like seeing photos of the ingredients. It lets me see what kind of tomato or how big, how much, etc. Dining with the Bloggers is a joint project of Zarah's (at Food and Thoughts) and mine - sort of like the Posts of the Week postings that several other bloggers have, but we highlight recipes that we've tried from other blogs. We took a little break for the summer and just started up again this week. In the past we selected a different theme for each week, which required close coordination between us and didn't really make it feasible to include others. This year we've decided to abandon the themed approach for the most part, so you or anyone else is welcome to join in if you choose or you could do something similar on your own schedule.<BR/><BR/>Hi Nic - Thanks!Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11194828903719000019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7157527.post-1126190287537763132005-09-08T10:38:00.000-04:002005-09-08T10:38:00.000-04:00I'm glad to see it's back, too, Cathy.

Thanks for your kind words about my blog. I am glad you tried those two recipes, they are my favorite too, particularly the tomato rasam. <BR/>Being new to food blogging and food terms, I hope my measurements for ingredients worked out ok for you. <BR/>What should one do, if they want to join in this dinner party? Try out other bloggers recipes? I hope it's not an exclusive or invitation only party. I would love to join in the fun. <BR/>Thanks again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7157527.post-1126101783471377202005-09-07T10:03:00.000-04:002005-09-07T10:03:00.000-04:00Yay!!

After reading some of the Indian food blogs, the recipes sound easy enough that I might want to try some of them at home.Reidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03757257669831271556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7157527.post-1126092767996968152005-09-07T07:32:00.000-04:002005-09-07T07:32:00.000-04:00Cathy, as someone who really enjoys trying other b...Cathy, as someone who really enjoys trying other bloggers recipes, I think that this feature is.<BR/><BR/>I miss, however, the fact that you guys do not post pictures of the recipes you make. Yes, the originator most of the times also has a picture, but it would be nice to see what your rendition would look like. Even if we don't post the recipe, to have another picture os the dish to look make a difference.Anahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14804076620255719859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7157527.post-1126075863082345292005-09-07T02:51:00.000-04:002005-09-07T02:51:00.000-04:00I just stumbled upon your blog tonight via Food Po...I just stumbled upon your blog tonight via Food Porn Watch.
