Back then we would eagerly wait to goto our grandma's house, so that we could meet all our cousins and playendlessly. There was a big garden in front of the house with lots of flowersand fruit trees. I fondly remember eating these red pearls (pomegranate) withmy cousins.
Now our grandma's  house is runned down, ruined by war andcovered with shrubs and overgrown trees. All our cousins have moved to differentparts of the world. Now only way to re-create those golden memories are throughfood.
Recently I started having salads forlunch and was experimenting with different veggies, legumes and nuts.Combination of these red pearl fruit that is high in anti oxidant and brainnutswalnuts a good source of Omega 3, along with lettuce and feta worked out good.These ingredients dressed up with balsamic olive oil dressing transforms abasic boring salad into an attractive and delicious salad.

Apart from cooking one of my other hobby is to go hiking. I can hike all day long and indeed being a 'nature lover' I love enjoying nature by getting close to it. Excellent transport system be it trains or cable cars, helps us to get to any point in Switzerland to do our hikes. Sharing with you some photos clicked during our recent hike in Valais region in its sunny valleys.
