Diwali Fun ;)

Diwali is preceeded by tons of cleaning....and ofcourse the house is filled with wafts of aroma coming from the kitchen.

Cleaning was handled by Mr. Clean(my hubby) himself and I was left with assurance that we would buy every sweet...dont worry.

Well me being me....dint want to give up so easily.

I read almost every food blog and receipe guide and ofcourse each year observing my mum during diwali was also an experience which paid off big time :)

I planned the planner that I am...and wrote n re- planned and adjusted every schedule of mine.

Bought all the raw materials and divided my cooking into different days :)

Started with the most difficult the Karanji or "kanavla" to some people.

My younger sister' moral support n timely help saved the day!

My karanji' were so good I ended up making a whole lot of them...

I have shared some pics.

This was followed by besan ladoo one day, chivda and shankar pali.

I also made some malai barfi on the day of Diwali. My father was very impressed, his little girl had grown up n he was proud of me :)

My husband went ga ga over the whole cooking extravaganza and said he din't know girls of this century could do all this!!!

Need I say more how I felt :)
