Few days back during Ganesh Chaturthi festival I had sent my entry for the click and share Modak contest in Sanjeev Kapoor’s page.I casually sent the picture as I had prepared the modak during the same time.After 3-4 days my sister messaged me that my facebook friend Shubha Bhandarkar has posted my winning post and I was super surprised and could not believe my ears..I was so overwhelmed to see the victory that I reached on cloud 9.Winning the contest from my favourite Chef Sanjeev Kapoorji was my dream come true.Would want to meet him someday..As I am held up with my kids exams, I am going on a little slow phase in my space.Nevertheless to celebrate the victory I prepared Rawa laddoo today to dedicate for my guru Chef Sanjeev Kapoorji and to all my well wishers and readers.This is one of the easy peasy laddoo..Thanks a lot dear all.
