I could hardly believe what I read today in a newsletter from India Invites. Agra, as you may recall from one of my previous posts, is the home to the most obnoxious and AGRA-vating rickshaw and taxi drivers, hotel desk clerks, food vendors and anyone else in the service industry in all of India. According Read More…

Photo Tour of Indian Food
Sad to admit it but it’s been a few years since I’ve been to India. Working on the details for next fall’s North India Culinary Tour, however, did two things for me.

It’s supposed to hit 100 degrees today in Seattle. Seriously. ONE HUNDRED. I think it’s a record. Naturally, I’m all about summer thinking right now.
