This year, the festival of Rakhi fell on a Saturday and most of our relatives have a holiday today. So we planned for a breakfast get-together. The day started at about 5.00am for us and we are almost done with the arrangements by 7.00am. First guests arrived by 7.00am and the event lasted till about …

The last weekend of Summer Holidays
Kids are on the verge of completing their summer holidays and the weekend of June 04th is the last weekend before their schools/colleges reopen. We wanted to go to Srisailam, but backed out in the last minute due to heavy rush there and accommodation issues for a large group of 18. So we did a …

Aahlad’s birthday party
After a long time, we had a family social event yesterday. It is a good gathering of relatives and friends at Aahlad’s birthday party. Being held in the middle of the week, most guys didn’t stay back extended hours, yet it is a long and well attended one. Aahlad is busy with all the guests …

Weekend Trip
Made a weekend trip to West Godavari district. The purpose is to attend a couple of weddings and the purpose is well served during the weekend. The train to Palakol is late, but that helped me grab those small samosas as morning snack (I won’t dare calling it a breakfast.) Had an opportunity to meet …

పచ్చి పులుసు
చాలా రోజుల తరువాత ఈ రోజు పచ్చి పులుసు తిన్నాను. ఈ వంటకం మా ఇంట్లో సాధారణంగా చేయరు. ఈ రోజు ఆఫీసులొ కేటరర్ పచ్చి పులుసు తీసుకు వచ్చాడు. టేస్టు చూసే నెపంతో బాగానే లాగించాను.

Strange!
Earlier this week, I was in Bhimavaram for more than 36 hours and I haven’t eaten any non-vegetarian food during that time. This is very unusual for that geographic location; part of it is due to the fact that I had a virtual food festival during the prior week.

Rakhi 2010
We celebrated Rakhi in a big way this year. Instead of each one of us roaming around for Raksha Bandhan, we did a breakfast get-together at our place. With about 35 visitors on the day, it is a good gathering after a long time. We all felt it is very convenient to celebrate the festival …

పనస తొనలు
ఈ రోజు సాయంత్రం ఆకస్మికంగా మా తోట నుంచి పనస తొనలు ఇంటికి పంపించారు. ఎంత ఆకస్మికంగా అంటే ఈ రోజు హైద్రాబాదు లో అక్కడక్కడా కురిసిన చిరుజల్లుల్లాగ అన్నమాట. జేఏసీ లు బందు ప్రకటించినంత ఆకస్మికంగా అన్నమాట. సీజనుకు ముందే వచ్చిన ఈ పనస తొనలను భోజనానంతరం (బుడుగుగాడు ఫక్కోడీలు తిన్నట్టుగా) లాగించాను. వేమనగారి “పంచదారలకన్న” పద్యంలో పనసతొనలు మిస్సయినట్లు అనిపిస్తోంది. కోర్ కమిటీ ప్రకటనల్లో క్లారిటీ మిస్సయినట్లుగా.

InOribit
Headed to InOrbit mall this week, to celebrate Rishita’s birthday. It is my first visit to the mall and felt that it is very well maintained. Still lot of construction though. Roamed around in the mall for an hour and then settled for dinner at McDonalds. In addition to all the nice shops there, I …

Sankranti Gathering – Food
The gathering is relatively small (compared to last year) during this Sankranti Festival in our village. The term small is a relative one here, and it refers to about 300 people during most meals of the 3 day festival. Pictures linked here are taken on the first day of the festival during breakfast.
