Happy Deepavali!!

Today is Deepavali (Festival of Lights). Though we typically wear new clothes, burst crackers, eat a lot of sweets/snacks, see all special programs on TV and visit relatives on this festive day when in India, today is like any other work day being in the US. Of course we relished on the goodies prepared by L for this occassion.

Best wishes for a very Happy Deepavali to one and all, and may peace, love, joy and prosperity be all around you!

Diwali - to me it meant only pattu paavadai and lots and lots of sweets. i have never tried my hands on brusting crackers. but i have watched all fun from a distance. now even in india, the charm of celebrating festivals is diminishing.. the younger generation too busy and tied up. even kolu sundal counts have come down. i feel kolu at fremont was much more enjoyable.
