This has been, by far, my most satisfying project to date. I wanted to recreate a Gothic style setting, with a modern twist. While I created the tables, chairs and the lamp stool, the candelabra, plates, spoons, forks and knives, bowls, pastry stand, lamp shade and food all are purchased accessories. Special thanks to suenosouvenir…

Spark Your Flame
Thousands of candles can be lit from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared. ~Buddha
Fork Off
Along with the Simpsons, I am also a major Seinfeld fan. When I set up this scene, I so badly wished I had Snickers on the plate instead. If you remember the episode titled The Plegde Drum, Elaine’s boss Mr. Pitt eats a Snickers bar with a knife and fork, starting a trend that seems…
Chaating Time
I am a huge chaat lover, but anything with curd is not something I prefer. Sev Puri in Pune, as I discovered, is not served on flat puris like in Bombay; it’s more like dahi puri sans the sweetened curd. So in a way, this lovely piece of work from Shilpa (AKA Suenosouvenir) is a…
I ‘Donut’ Know
Donuts. Is there anything they can’t do? God often gives nuts to toothless people. ~Matt Groening I love the Simpsons, so when Shilpa (AKA Sueno souvenir) was selling a donuts magnet, I secretly hopped there was one with pink topping and sprinkles. Since I couldn’t ask for customizations, I held my tongue. But if you…
Egged On
Concentrate your energies, your thoughts and your capital. The wise man puts all his eggs in one basket and watches the basket. ~Andrew Carnegie
Light It Up
ACTS OF LOVE Love is not a word Or a thought. It is the name for an action that breathes from its light. What do you DO in love’s name? And is it only done outside in the light? Or with an inner flame illuminating love’s TRUE name? I want to know. Are your actions…
Momo Love
I’m not a momo fan: apart from the traditional Modak or koyakattai, dhoklas and idlis, I don’t enjoy steamed foods too much. Fried momos I can’t resist though. These are not edible in any case, this plate of yummilicious momos are from the zero calories range of miniatures from suenosouvenir. Do check our her page…
Musically Inclined
As I already discussed about what Golu has in store, this is one of the small nuggets that I picked at a nice annual golu stall in Bombay. The set has tablas, a harmonium and a sitar. My only grouse with the set is that it is made of PoP (plaster of Paris) and is…
The Waving Flag
WAVIN’ FLAG ~K’naan Give me freedom, give me fire Give me reason, take me higher See the champions take the field now You define us, make us feel proud In the streets our heads are liftin’ As we lose our inhibition Celebration, it surrounds us Every nation, all around us Saying forever young Singing songs…
