Sabudane ki Pakaudi from Dilli Haat
Last month (was it just last month! How does the time flies) my sister and I went to Dilli Haat, just the two of us. And we really had a great time. Feasted on food. I really truly liked the Sabudana Ka Pakaudi from the Maharashtra stall. It had bits of peanuts in it…
Indian Tricolor
It is our Independence Day today but I am posting these Tricolors from the Anna Hazare’s Jantar Mantar rally. I support his cause against corruption. Wish I had been at the Raj Ghat today where he sat impromptu or at the JP Park where he may protest tomorrow. But it won’t be. Not possible this…

Realization through a Name like Karkarduma

Skywatch Friday- Skies from Talhauti, Uttarakhand
We were hopeful after looking at the blues in the sky that the weather would be fine the next day. But the grey dominated and it was snowed out the next day. This image was taken at Talhauti in Uttarakhand Himalayas while I was trekking in the region in early June. Please visit the Skywatch page for…
