Of updates and celebrations

It’s been quite a while since I updated this corner (personal blog of mine). Well… it has been a boring month, but that’s probably not an acceptable reason for this stepmotherly treatment to my blog… I must admit that this has more to do with my crafty undertakings that kept me busy with my other blog for tatting (Sapztat).

I have been quite a regular in the other blog. Some nice stuff created by moa is put up there. Tatting was something which I started as a hobby but now am planning to put my creations up for sale.

When am back from work, all I do is sit at home and enjoy tatting or crochet (my new found craft passion these days). And anyways, I have absolutely no social life left (thanks to my hubby dear who is the laziest person on earth!!!)…

Last week was full of festivities with Navrathri & Dussehra celebrations in full swing. Saturday marked the end of festivities with Saraswathi and Ayudha pooja. It was good fun and since this was our first year in the new house, both of us did a good job at the puja ritual (This was the first time that we did a puja all by ourselves at home) and fortunately it all went off very well…:)

Being the lady of the house (arghhh how I hate to call myself that), your’s truly took up the responsibility of cooking delicious and mouth-watering dishes as part of the celebrations. Our lunch menu included Payasam, vatha kozhambu with cabbage curry and of course, curd rice (Sundru cannot do without that!!!). It was a relief to find very few left overs of the dishes prepared and surely made me happy.

Eventhough we are inching close to our one year anniversary (yeah so soon that too) I have a very strange feeling every time I think about our married life… I am still not used to spending late nights with Sundru and living with him in “our house”. I sometimes get scared that my mother is going to call me everytime I am past the deadline…

I pinch myself to make sure that this is for real and am indeed married to Sundru!!!

My New Home

I finally managed to post my New Home pictures. I wanted to do this long time back but then totally got engaged in settling down… so, finally they are here… after 6 months!!!

So what are we waiting for, Tadaa (Drum rolls)…… Here it is...

This is my beautiful house, my husband’s gift to me, well…. not in the true sense though. Initially we were supposed to move into our new house soon after we got married but unfortunately the interiors & decor took forever to finish.

Both of us wanted this to turn out to be really beautiful considering it is “OUR First one” so we kinda over shot our budget and furnished it…

We finally moved in on the 1st of May this year and believe me, living in here is better than the pictures :)…
