		<description><![CDATA[Unni,
You don&#039;t know that your Mohini-attam-ing, Kathali-ful isn&#039;t off painting her head blue and Mamboing on the weekend any more than you know whose dereliction of duty is responsible for Shoba&#039;s cousins, such as they are. Nor can you speak about confusion - they (&quot;we&quot;) are called ABCD for a reason. Your rebellion may&#039;ve been supported by the state, but their state is what drives their rebellion. Best keep them stones in your pocket. (No pun.)
later,
Reena]]></description>

I stumbled upon this page by looking on the web for opportunities in travel writing. And I am so impressed by your work and credentials. 
Will visit here regularly now. Keep up the good work. And I may ask you for some advice one of these days.
Good luck to you!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dear Shoba,
I just finished devouring your Monsoon Diary and enjoyed every scrumptious dish and delight! Your deft descriptions of places, people and the preciousness of all of India left me satisfied with morsels of my own to indulge and savor whenever I feel homesick - not for a land and culture from which I was raised, but for one that feels as much as &quot;home&quot; as any other I can think of!
Namaste Sister Shoba and thank you. I have been inspired to delve deeper into my love of cooking and have been fortified in my endeavors by your wonderful recipes and stories.
With gratitude,
Laura]]></description>
