Happy Onam


Here is Anush and her mother's hastily put together poo kolam.

Anush was asking for Mahabali this morning, soon after she woke up- whether he had come- thanks to her paati's story on Onam.
Happy feasting this Onam irrespective of whether you are from Kerala or not - almost all restaurants seem to be offering the Onam sadya- me I will opt for the home version ( my father is from Kerala)

  5. Hi,
    The "poo Kolam" looks very beautiful. BTW, what is Onam sadya? Totally ignorant about this...

    sadya is meal/ saapadu ( the full fledged conventional one)

    the usual suspects ( avial/ olan/ more kozambu/kaalan/ errisery and poppadam, banana chips and payasam
