pizza and enchildada and drink and pizza and bollywood

I've had a couple of these, so this might be precious....

Why not? Here's a good song to get you going, from Dil Se...

Anyone else out there a fan of 90's Bollywood?? I LOVE that stuff. The precursor to Slumdog Millionaire, if you will. I didn't make Indian food, but that hasn't stopped me from dancing on top of a train quite yet.

Honestly, though, all I want to do is talk about pizza. I made the "Pasta Milanese" sauce from the Atlanta Journal Constitution(our local newspaper), and decided to just throw it on my basic pizza crust.
Turned out quite nice, though I did drizzle honey on the top to cut the anchovies and olives.
and why not dip a few Georgia pecans into chocolate? (using chopsticks is the way to go)
and as the birthday party(s) began, we had some of this....
and this.........
and breakfast came with a wee bit of this............
oh, and some more of this....

I seriously live for the weekends. And, I do admit that Shahrukh Khan's ladies are 90% of the reason I'm kind of into yoga. One more from Dil Se.

If you want to watch more 90's Bollywood; I have to admit my favorite Shahrukh Khan movie is with Kajol, Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge. Yep, my weakness ;)

I'll occasionally watch one of those dance numbers with a mixture of fascination and horror...

This is my first time on your blog. I found you through Chez What and I'm so glad I did. This looks like it was such a nice time!

Buffalo--horror??? Come on, now!

Doggy--yep, and we kept the grocery cart chair at home :) I hope I am never "purged" from Bollywood.

Selba--thanks! I wish they showed them on TV here--we usually have to rent them.

Joie--thanks for coming by!! Yes, it's easy to have a good time with pizza and beer :)

Christo Gonzales said...

yeah we get it on TV so its easy to get caught up in the dancing frenzy of it all...

The plots to most of those movies are pretty sappy- then you work in a musical song and dance number? I'll stick with the word horror...

Joie de vivre said...

Thanks so much for visiting! Sigh, wouldn't the pizza and beer diet be sublime?

tavolini said...

Doggy--yes, the dancing is quite fun. And funny :)

Buffalo--the plotlines are about LOVE!! No, I just can not accept "horror"!!!

Joie--yes, I could subsist on pizza and beer INDEFINITELY!

I actually have an old Indian movie from long ago, that is like our version of 'Butch Cassidy & Sundance Kid', but a bit more modern, and funny as hell!

I agree with you on not giving up pizza and beer...I just switch the dough to gluten free, and added more fiber, and turned up the dial on the treadmill and lost 20 pounds this past month...

The keg made me laugh! A little unknown fact: we had a keg at our wedding. Husband's COL was the first to partake! LOVED that unit we were in!! LOL
