At my grandma house we have curry leaves tree. Every day morning before we start the cooking there are few steps we do like preparing coconut grating, plucking curry leaves, look for any vegetables (yes only in the morning they decide what to do for rest of the day. Now days we have to plan for entire week ahead so that you can finish ur whole week shopping during weekend grocery shopping).
