2023 was a good year.Not a mixed bag, but a good year with a lot happening everywhere .I was grateful that 2024 was another year to learn,grow and spend time with people I love,doing what I love.

The year end was when we went on a week long trip to Kashi-Prayagraj-Ayodhya-Lucknow with beautiful old cities,Visiting Baba Biswanath at Kashi,the innumerable narrow lanes of Benaras, multiple adventures,plane delays, train delays,impossible traffic snarls and prayers.

During the COVID PANDEMIC I stopped buying clothes ,like many other and discovered I had many lovely sarees ,hidden under piles of forgotten clothes.The last year I was mindful of wearing sarees to the different parties I attended.Saree is an outfit which drapes women in a very complimentary way and makes one feel beautiful. Do you wear sarees?

You can’t go through an entire year without learning from it and this year I am back with the trying part again.

Durga Puja was a wonderful chance to spend time at our new home in Kolkata with family and friends. It was a blast to say the least.Loving family, great friends and wonderful ambience at our apartment complex.

When my husband Abhijit and my brother in law renovated the family home in the village ,we didn’t know how it would change our lives.It was 2020 October and the only thought I had in my head while encouraging them to do it was a place with fresh air trees,flowers and where we could play without masks.It wasn’t as simple as what I wrote though!That led to building a home away from home even though
