âś“ What is your favorite dish and drink when you have a cold?
| Milk with Turmeric |  |
|---|
In case I get a cold, I normally prefer to take hot soup that is prepared from milk and raw turmeric. Well I learnt it from my mother when I was young, she taught it to me. First, I warm the milk and put tiny pinch of turmeric in it. I saw that turmeric is really good for health especially when you have the flu. Then I add some chopped ginger as it aids in throat irritation and seems to soothe me.
After boiling the soup I take time to sip the soup. Occasionally, I will put a little splash of lemon juice simply to enhance the flavor. That is why this hot soup makes me feel strong again. It is the one thing that I like to have when I have a flu and it relieves my symptoms much faster.
âś“ What is your favorite dish or drink to lift your spirits?
 | Vapa Pitha |
|---|
In order to relieve myself, I actually like to eat vapa pitha (Steamed rice cake). It is prepared from coconut and molasses so it is sweet and tasty. Actually, in the village this is made during winter and the smell pervades the entire house. We enjoy making and eating it together as a family.
 | Hot Tea |
|---|
Normally I take a cup of hot tea with pitha. I also put ginger and cardamom into the tea and say it tastes very nice indeed. Enjoyment always comes from eating sweet pitha with strong tea. So often it’s one of the things that does help to cheer me up.
âś“ What is your favorite dish and drink to entertain a birthday boy or girl?
 | Yummy Beef |
|---|
| Khichuri |  |
|---|
 | Yogurt |
|---|
When it comes to birthdays in village, we always set simple meals, but which are very delicious. I like cooking beef curry and khichuri. My mother tells me that these dishes are ideal when all his family is assembled. The khichuri is also served with yogurt and salad. While cooking I add spices such as cumin and cinnamon and cardamom to make the khichuri taste better.
 | Coca cola cold drinks |
|---|
| 7-up soft drink |  |
|---|
For the beverages we normally take Coca-Cola or Pepsi this makes the birthday to be fun filled. During a meal, we avoid any serious discussions, instead, we sing, make jokes, and generally have a good time. Family’s happy moments are always memorable.
âś“ What is your favorite dish and drink when you go for a walk, whether to the beach, the park or the mountains?
 | Banana fruit |
|---|
| Guava |  |
|---|
 | Apple |
|---|
While going for a walk I prefer to take some fruit with me. There are Bananas, Guavas, or Apple. These fruits help to keep me refreshed and provide me energy any time when I am out for walking. That is why when walking in the village, especially near some parts of nature, it feels so quiet.
As for drinks, my tend is towards coconut water. When I take it on the hot day the effect I get is a feeling of coolness and satisfaction.
The foods and drinks in the Bangladesh’s life are plain but they make me a happy person. Every dishes or beverages that I have make me think or feel love and joy in the village. It make me feel calm and happy always.
