Happy Onam!

5 minute pookalam with whites and pinks from Kroger, oranges from our garden, and the center piece from the deserted neighboring plot. Plucking flowers from elsewhere is the real fun of Onam!

Sadya and of course dressing up my malayali manka for a quick photoshoot :)

Life

Keep calm..

Clutter is supposed to allude to creativity and I have used that excuse too long to explain the thingamajigs that thrive around me. But lately empty tables and counter tops seem to really alluring.

Blank spaces have stopped asking to be filled all the time ever since they began to feel calming. Zen is the way to go for me for a while.. (With a toddler on the pry, this seems like a smart decision)

Wanderlust

This is where I have been. Back home and back to blog after a whirlwind tour of several cities. And whirlwinds result in shaky photos as you can see..

And I realize I don't know how to arrange pictures in my post..

Indian party

The hostess had to run around and couldnt take any pictures. So this is all I have. I went crazy with paisley :P

Getting ready for a party..

I had a list of a hundred themes (ok,not that many).But somehow I ended up with this one. I am sure the party girl won't mind :)
