Its been raining continuously here in Santa Barbara from past few weeks. We did not get much rain here in the past two -three years. This as you can imagine is a welcome change for us. For me this is a perfect weather to sit on the couch, sip warm tea and just look at rain drops falling on the tree leaves. I can just sit like this and admire the new lush green cover over the mountains, falling rain drops all day long.

I love it when it rains and am enjoying this change in weather to the fullest. These days I am happy driving my car over water puddles and don’t mention gleefully splashing water all around. This reminds me of my favorite childhood memories. Back in the days when it used to rain on my way back from school. I would impatiently wait to get down from the school bus and look around for water puddles. And when I used to find one, jump on them and splash water. So much fun! Now when my daughter wants to do the same dare I can say no to her.

Rain also has another effect on me. This weather makes me crave for warm soups, chicken curry and spiced ginger tea. Cravings, we all give in some time. Me – I always give in. So, this past week I made coconut chicken curry for dinner. I tried my usual stove top curry recipe in Instant Pot and it turned out perfect.
