Here in GgrrGaon (or GurGown as you prefer) you get all sorts of things. Including Makeup Burfi at Haldiram’s. I wonder what this means? Don’t put makeup – just eat Burfi to look pretty. Or, burfi looks like it’s all made up? Better still – eat after a fight to resolve differences. Or is it an imaginary Burfi? Something, someone made-up?
The mind is a Burfi, Krishna.
A spokesperson for International Halwai Confederation informed me that “Make Up Burfy” is industry jargon for the burfi whose recipe was just thought of (hence no specific name) and they are trying to test its market.
yaarachum kettomaa ipdi burfi photos ellam pottu philim kaata solli :(
The mind is a Burfi, Krishna.
That was I-snorted-coffee-outta-my-nose funny.
(BTW, Krishna’s response to Arjuna was “O Partha, makeup your mind and just get on with the fighting.” Hence the name Makeup burfi.)
I think Fleiger is right. It’s a new recipe! The photo made me hungry so am going to get some sweets.
To especially overcome commitment phobia, may be? Darn! I should have picked up that today instead of gorging on the Dahi Puri!
May we pliss have an before and after (consumption of Makeup Barfi) photo of “Nega”? :)
To a Seinfeld fan, Makeup S** is the best part of having a fight. Makeup Burfi then is the catalyst of the make up – it is what you offer to your sweety as a peace offering.
Ditto Himanshu. I bet the “make up” barfi is to maska-marofy a peeved spouse. Traditional Maharashtrians had the gajra or a small garland of mogra flowers that you put in your hair.
Surprised that you didn’t get the make up part. I guess, that time hasn’t yet come for you, lucky Sri :)
Aha, WITHIN reachable distance.
In Delhi_gurgaon.
And eating Mithai.
Very good.
Fleiger: Do you realize how many people are going to take you seriously? Hemph
WA: Veetukku va WA. Will treat you to some India made mithai.
km: ROFL
MumbaiGirl: Maybe we should have one of those Female Bloggers Meet in London where the agenda is to eat.
PrimalSoup: Look what I did! God!!
Anon2: Nai-vaaaar!
Himanshu: To SWEETy?
Patrix: I think the Tams placed their faith in Halwa and Jasmine flowers as peace offering to the wife. And wait — *Sri, are you listening*.
Paavani: Yes. Very Good.
Before I thank you and accept your invite, I’ve got to get rid of this image that is forming in my mind right now. After reading your response to Patrix, I can’t stop thinking that Sri is gonna be waiting at Heathrow for you with loads of malli poo and Halwa in hand. Wonder what the background mujic would be
now tell me when?
PS: Hope you are having fun there.
Pattu vetti also.
I have one kostin — why is the malli poo worn on the wrist? inni varaikkum purinjathe illa….
Nilu: Cos malli poo around ear looks stupid.
