Navarathri manjal kungumam invite

Happy Saraswathi puja to you all.

Ladies, and girls: check out our kolu (in its full glory below) and do drop in for manjal kungumam (haldi kumkum) and prasadam (sundal et al).

The men are welcome too!


this here is our wildlife reserve on the right and the farm on the left.

This is of course, Disneyland!!!! Don't miss the skating rink.

PS: In case you are not familiar with the bommai kolu concept, please remember that a willing suspension of disbelief is essential to enjoy the spectacle in its entirety.

Bet the li'l one had a blast helping to arrange it all? :) The farm was the only thing I took a real interest in, actually growing mustard seeds (well, sprouting mustard plants) in the "field" :)

Hi Papji

Very nice Golu and also the decoration by the kids. I remember Papu coming to out place during Navarathri time many years ago (she was 7 or so) - she thought it was a party and something and generously distributed sweets (that Satish had got for her) to the ladies from our building who came home for Golu.. so sweet.

Send me your email ID where I can send pics.. I uploaded some of our Golu.

Shyam and Vid: Yes, small N is dead keen on these. At that age, so was I. Most of the work,though, was done by me!

Thanks papji - I got your mail, and sent u the pics. Kutty had a great time - with all her friends visiting, getting to wear pattu pavadai, and of course the Golu itself. She shocked me by not pulling any of the idols kept on the Golu - she's usually very quick in emptying drawers etc. :D
Happy Dassara to all of you.
