New (year) in...




Yesterday we celebrated Diwali – festival of lights. It is said to be linked to the story of Rama returning for the exile and, in the same time, to Lakshmi – goddess of wealth. It is also marking the beginning of New Year. While the idea of starting the year in October doesn’t really speak to me, I’m all for decorating the house, putting up lights and creating rangoli.


I wish I had more time to play with these fun patterns (which are being washed off by the rain just now), but with preparations for the impromptu bbq we decided to host, I was really happy with the results.


And in the end we must have done the celebration right, cause since morning we’ve been showered by parcels. Since we moved here, couriers had really tough time with finding our house, and, it seems, they all managed to do so just today!
