The Royal Baby Shower

With a Celebrity's closet

Sukhpreet - 1st time mommy! 

My beautiful younger sister, +Sukhpreet Sohi, is having a baby boy soon! So in the honor of the prince & 1st time mommy, our families hosted The Royal Baby Shower. With the theme being royal, I knew I had to have a elegant outfit to match.  +Lashkaraa Ethnicwear  outfit  from Priyanka Chopra collection was a impeccable choice. 

Priyanka Chopra 

 I had seen Priyanka wearing this outfit on various soical media, like pinterest and instagram. I been wanting to get my hands on this but couldn't find a legit place to order it. When I saw it on +Lashkaraa Ethnicwear website I instantly placed it in my shopping cart! 

When I received it in the mail, I ran to my room to try the outfits. The Asin Yellow and Black Anarkali fit perfectly and no alternation was needed. The Priyanka Chopra's Churidar I already knew it was going to be a bit long, because of the reviews left on Lashkaraa's website. When I tried it on it reached right above my ankle. Therefore, I definitely needed some alternation to replica the picture. Thank god I have a wonderful tailor, who fixed it within a day and under $10. Everything else fit perfectly. The sleeves are long, there a zip on the left side, and only 4 buttons on the top open up.





The day of the baby shower, I was frustrated with my face! I had no idea what kind of look I should do. I first tried a smokey eye with a hint of turquoise, but of course that didn't work. Washed my face to clear the canvas. Took a deep breath in and +Manpal Singh gave me a big hug (because he saw how frustrated I was getting) and starting doing this shimmery dusty brown look.

Warm Parathas with Garam Chai

Breakfast at the Ghumans

Today the hubby was home and I had the energy this morning to make a topically Punjabi breakfast. Usually we just have a coffee or chai, fruit, eggs, and or something else. With our busy and constantly changing schedule we do not have time to sit down and eat. So this morning was perfect!

I started off making the dough in our kitchen aid mixer... (absolutely love it! No more kneading the dough by hand!) than on the side I scrambled eggs with our Indian spices: salt, pepper, garam masala, ginger power, cumin seed, and red pepper power. I took out my waffle maker to make the eggs... this is a great alternative that me and my husband love! You pour the eggs on the waffle maker and close it && within seconds it's DONE!

 

So after the eggs were done, I started making the parathas. You will need plain flour, oil (of your choice, I like olive oil or grape seed oil), and salt.

• Make small round dough balls, then you roll them out until they are thin.
• Pour oil and salt in the middle. Spread the mix with your figure over the entire dough.
• Fold the sides of the round dough, so they are over lapping one another
• Than do the same thing again with the remained sides... It should be a square now!
• Now you place it on a hot griddle. Cook both sides until its golden brown... Wa La !

Now since this blog is about skin. I have to say this can be a heavy and oily breakfast. BUT you can substitute ingredients to make it healthy. Like use whole wheat dough, do not use too much salt, use a healthier oil & not use too much.

We usually eat it with homemade yogurt on the side and chai... There you go. That was our breakfast this morning.
