I love that my neighborhood is filled with delicious smells almost every night as I walk the dogs. Some nights it's steaks or burgers on a grill, other nights I can spell enchiladas, and tonight, I smelled a delicious curry as I was walked the dogs past the Sikh Gurdwara. Of course, that made me totally crave curry tonight. I actually thought about getting Indian take out, but then decided to try making a curry dish using some of the turnips that I have. It really hit the spot. I had planned to eat the leftovers tomorrow, but they didn't last the night.
