Everyone’s Christmas and New Year
hangover must be almost over now. They all must have started up their daily
routine of busy lives. But for those who have faith in Orthodox Christian their
time for celebrating festivals just started with Christmas celebration on Jan 7
and New Year Celebration on Jan 14.
So tomorrow is their New Year.
Actually why am I writing all about it reason being like me
I thought you all must also not be familiar about it. My grandparents believe
in this and they celebrate Jan 14 2015 as their New Year. So for me I am gearing
up myself for the New Year celebrations for the second time for the same
year. There is not a public holiday observed
here in the US but you can get to see huge traffic and parking around Orthodox
churches all over the US.
Discussions apart. Now I have come up with such an easy dinner recipe which I could make at home to rejoice both my grandparents and
parents. This was a big responsibility as I did not want to end up with
something bad. So I browsed the web and came across these two Knorr dinner
recipes and My Recipes
dinner recipes as their respective cooking time were less so I choose them.
Have a look at their recipes here one by one.
