Missing the Crunch...

Missing the crunch....

I am in the middle of running around to get my son ready for his online class. As we got up too late as always, I am almost in panic so he should not miss the class, he comes and hug me saying that don’t worry you are my best teacher, that just made my day. IN the middle of this madness somewhere we are so occupied with our lives that we miss out on simple beautiful things in life like a hug ,a peck ,rain, plants etc. These small little things are the emotional charge that keeps us going strong in most difficult situations which we need the most.

When I feel low, I would love to have a little dose of girly chit chat and sipping a cup of masala chai...with a little crunch to keep me going for rest of my day....So for today I decided to have that crunch with a coconut as an ingrediet.Coconut is one of the most versatile ingredient which can pep up any dish and  Coconuts are especially high in manganese, which is essential for bone health and the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins, and cholesterol ..They're also rich in copper and iron, which help form red blood cells, as well as selenium, an important antioxidant that protects your cells.

Lets get started..A tip to all, sometimes it good to bake just for youself.Because always remember you are special and need lot of love.If you are happy only then you can keep others happy too. So let that love come to you in a form of cookie.... super simple  recipe even for people who cant bake or cook.....
