Every morning I take DND flyway to my office. This morning DND had a special surprise for me Kaash phool- a flower which for a Bengali has huge significance. 

Kaash Phool gives us an indication that our biggest festival is almost round the corner. Its time to go back home, meet family & friends. Its time for adda, good food, new clothes, and time with all our near ones for 5 whole days. It means pandal hopping, eating junk, catching up on laughter. 

Its time for Pujo Barshiki, Pujo'r gaan, Pujo'r aalo, Pujo'r makeup, Pujo'r preparation.

Maa Aasche!

Aug 15th, 2012

Kind of was like the perfect day. Had made NO plans-guess this works the best. We dont have any expectations from the day then. Slept till late (as in 9.30am), had a sausage breakfast (yummm). Then lazed on the sofa. Read the newspaper. Watched TV. Cooked good food.

Then the noon was spent kite flying. After lunch, inside an AC room with comforters in place, planned a 3 day holiday-just impromptu. Even again kite flying, dinner of mac and chicken and a movie-really horrible one, but WTH...a movie is a movie (suggestion-run away from the movie: "The Last Few Hrs of The Earth"...or mmm...something like that).

What a perfect day! Seems even the bad movie was perfectly bad!
