Hi Guys!! Welcome back. Here's an update on my cooking class, Learn to bake with Ananya! Our next class will be hosted on Saturday on Google Meet. I will send the link to join on Friday. If the device that you are joining with is a phone, tablet or iPad, please make sure that you have installed the Google Meet app. Also please try to RSVP in the Learn to Bake Group Chat. The item we are making is Maple granola. This is a really simple recipe that I enjoy making with my dad (who is the one who introduced me this awesome recipe.) There are many variations to granola, you can add coconut ( I love this) or add more maple syrup or a stronger maple taste. (I really love this. Note if you choose to do this, I suggest cutting the brown sugar completely.) You can even mix in a handful of dried cranberries or chocolate chips.  Flyer below for more details. Without further ado here is the list of supplies and ingredients you will need for Saturday! Supplies: Large mixing bowl Spatula (I prefe...

Hey guys, welcome back!! As some of you know, I like to draw, and one of the first things I learned is how to draw simple flowers. Today I will be passing my knowledge onto you guys, my awesome readers!! Some of you guys may already know how to do this, as it is super easy. I have included pictures for each step. Below is a picture of all three flowers with color! A few tips before you get started, read the entire step before you do it and keep an eraser on hand. (Art Supplies tutorial and recommendations blog post coming soon!) The first flower that is my favorite because it is extremely easy to learn is the tulip! All you need to know for this one is to draw the letters 'U' and 'V.' Step 1: Draw a 'U' Step 2: Draw a 'V' connecting the ends of the letter 'U' from Step 1 Step 3: Draw an upside down 'V' in the middle of the first 'V' The second 'V' should be smaller than the first one Step 4: Add color! (if you want) Pictur...

Hi guys, welcome back!! If you didn't read my introduction blog make sure to check it out. Anyway, today I went on a walk in my neighborhood with my dad at 9:30 am. Walking is one of my favorite forms of exercise, as it is so easy and fun. There are many benefits from walking such as improvement of the skeletal and respiratory (bone, hearth/ lungs) systems.  Improving your health is very beneficial but I also find that walking improves your mood. If you find yourself bored, get up and go on a walk!! Just 15 minutes of walking every day can greatly improve your daily lifestyle. Remember to practice social distancing and stay 6 feet apart. That's it for this post, I hope you learned something new!!                                                           XOXO, Ananya 

Hi guys!! Welcome to my first post in my awesome blog galaxy!! Before reading this post, please click the read more button or else the formatting and spacing will be off. Basically since Arush is hundreds of miles south of me and it's summer I decided to create this blog. I have wanted to do this for such a long time as I have tried (and failed) many times with Wix, I decided to use this. This is sooooo much more easier to use than Wix and it works super fast. Things you can expect in my blog: Updates on my new online cooking class hosted on Google Meet Movie and Book recommendations  Awesome recipes (mostly for smoothies and baking) Some my latest artwork and art tutorials And much more to come... Also I need to change that fig picture on the home page even though it looks super cool. Thanks you guys so much for reading my first blog, it was really fun to write this. Stay tuned for more posts.                        ...
