That's super cool that your Maman has worked as a model, even with Chanel! I haven't been to Chicago, but I've heard that its food scene is pretty unique!

Take care

Though my previous family were highly toxxic, I learny Indian cooking from a young age. Since Maman adopted Julie and I, we move to be children of this beautiful international model, who in turn most generously gave us a dream kitchen: a La Cornue Château Suprême range, a Subzero fridge/freezer of similar elephantine proportions and a store cupboard as cavernous as Dr Who's telephone booth. When it comes to cooking in this kitchen, Sis and I want for nothing.

Tonight we made tandoor chicken on skewer after marinating the meat overnight, and we twins love it hot. The Cornue's oven is very hot, sadly not tandoor hot, but we ate well, using fingers since Maman wasn't there to watch! We had a glorious dinner and washed up.

This Sunday we're doing an outdoor Indian food share, so our neighbours can come and help themselves.

Tomorrow here we come. Oh, and Maman is benefitting from kaada!
