Cats Sleep Anywhere

Cats sleep anywhere, any table, any chair.

Top of piano, window-ledge, in the middle, on the edge.

Open draw, empty shoe, anybody's lap will do.

Fitted in a cardboard box, in the cupboard with your frocks.

Anywhere! They don't care! Cats sleep anywhere.

Happy Ganesh Chaturthi

This one is for Ramesh :)

At home...since the past four years we bring an eco friendly Ganesh idol home. Our prior experience of immersion at Shivaji park beach was horrifying so we switched to pure clay idol. 

Sitting pretty...

This picture is very special to me. Almost 27 years ago, my dad along with his friends started this 'Adarsh Yuva Mandal' and they started the sarvajanik Ganesh Utsav in their locality. We left the place almost 19 years ago but the other founding members are carrying on the legacy. It has gone from being a small idol to a larger than life one. 

This is my last 'spinster' Ganesh Utsav. Lol. I will be married in January and will be off to Gurgaon, Haryana where my in laws reside. I hope to make it back for this festival each year with my hubby!

My dad's master piece! He loves his plants and it shows...

KalaGhoda 2010... Part I

Three months is a long time. God knows what I have been up to! Finally I made it to the KalaGhoda Festival with Him. Here are a few glimpses of what we saw...

This is what the installation said:

The bell with lots of smaller energy bells.

Loved the colours...

Loved this piece of art!

Expensive but what colours...

I want this!
