Dear Mrs. Mano,
MAde the green gram idli for breakfast today. It was very easy to prepare and very tasty. Though it felt a little heavy to touch, it was very soft and nice to eat. Thanks for the recipe. Am planning to try the ragi idli next.

Dear Mrs.Mano:
I prepared Vivika and served alongside regular idlis this morning. It was wonderful and everybody liked it. I never knew that a sweet can be this delicate and satisfying breakfast. Thank you very much for the wonderful recipe.

Dear Mrs. Mano,
Tried the Banana Appam II for Janmashtami last evening and it turned out fab!! The texture, the colour, the taste everything about it was perfect. Am planning to make another batch today to take to friend's place for a kiddie celebration of Janmashtami. The only thing I changed from your recipe was that I reduced the qty of sugar by 1/2. Thanks so much for a super recipe!!

Also, had some leftover batter from the green gram idli. So I added some rice flour and made it like pesarattus with onion and chillies sprinkled on top. That turned out very well too. Crisp and golden brown.
