Whole Wheat Pista Almond Biscuits (eggless)

When I am in stress, I bake. My father suffered from two heart strokes last week. The whole week was full of tension. Now, the doctors have put stents in his arteries to increase the flow of oxygen. My mind has been restless ever since then. Ttoday, he was discharged. I am in bangalore, miles away from him. Will be visiting him after two weeks. That's the disadvantage of staying away from your family. You can't visit as often as you like.

Nonetheless, I decided to take a pause and take my mind off from this constant fear of losing my beloved father. The feeling is like somebody withdrew the safety net from my head.
