What a mixed bag of a year you’ve been, 2019! I started the year with a rather silly accident, leaving me to nurse a 4-week injury that lasted for a good 11 months! The injury wasn’t all bad though, we managed to sneak in a week-long trip to Sri Lanka. Resolution unlocked! I eased off…

The Joy of Life!
Enjoying the last bit of the year, good or bad is probably one of the things we look forward to and prepare for well. The year 2019 hasn’t been the kindest, but I am grateful nonetheless to have endured and gracefully sailed through it. Here’s a toast to family, friends, feasts and a whole lot…

Set Up the Mood
Right from August, the festival season starts in India. With guests walking in and out of our houses, it becomes rather important to keep your den presentable and clutter free.
