Idly is my favorite food

I love Idlies...steamed rice puddings!! I call it yummy...yummm...and can't stop waiting till my mother serve. I can even swallow a hot piece of it without showing the pain on my face...If we go to a restaurant I ask for idly first...and sometime noodles.

Our Mani Thatha called me "Sappattu Raman" (means champion in eating) after seeing me with Idly at a restaurant. If I know that my mother is cooking Idlies...I will be around her talking about it for hours in the kitchen till she warns me to get out of kitchen!

But it's somewhat surprise to me that my father doesn't like Idly and blames mother for giving such taste to me through DNAs. Is it like that?
