This weekend...


This weekend was a real hit with severe dehydration due to some stomach bug or something. I had lost lot of fluids since nothing was staying inside me even with medications. Finally, the ones that really helped me were these:



Idli also romanized idly or iddly, plural idlis, is a traditional breakfast in south Indian households. Idli is a savory cake of South India that is most popular throughout the southern part of India including Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Pondicherry, Kerala, Andhra Pradesh and neighbouring countries like Sri Lanka. The cakes are usually two to three inches in diameter and are made by steaming a batter consisting of fermented black lentils (de-husked) and rice. The fermentation process breaks down the starches so that they are more readily metabolized by the body.

Along with my ever favourite:


Yogurt or yoghurt or yoghourt (/ˈjɡərt/ or /ˈjɒɡərt/; from Turkishyoğurt; other spellings listed below) is a fermented milk product produced by bacterial fermentation of milk. The bacteria used to make yogurt are known as "yogurt cultures". Fermentation of lactose by these bacteria produces lactic acid, which acts on milk protein to give yogurt its texture and its characteristic tang.[1]
Dairy yogurt is produced using a culture Dairy of Lactobacillusdelbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus bacteria. In addition, otherlactobacilli and bifidobacteria are also sometimes added during or after culturing yogurt.
