  9. Mahi, thanks for checking on me. I'm alive :) and am feeling extremely lazy these days. It's surprisingly easy to slack off for a longer period than I thought. Hope everything is good at your end. The soya kuzhambu looks very creamy and comforting on a rainy day like today. Hope the weather is better in Cal. :)
