Hyderabad, Bangalore, Poona, Tirupati.
Kanchipuram saris and gold jewelry.
Sweat, sweat. Mehndi and makeup.
Piping hot coffee in a double steel cup.
Relatives and friends, faces and smiles.
Pats on the back for crossing the miles.
Good smells from the kitchen
Before getting out of bed
"Burgundy in your hair
And none on your forehead!!!"
Shopping, shopping, shopping
Talking, talking, talking
Eating, eating, eating
and then some more.
An Indian summer wedding
Has come knocking on my door.
Off to the Mothership. Will be back in a couple of weeks!

Gabby, I know you are right now enjoying yourself in Mera Bharat Mahaan. Have blogrolled you :-)
Hello, excellent blog :)
My first visit, thought I'd say hello. Don't know if you'll see this under the avalanche of comments, but worth a shot at any rate, no? :)
welcome home :-)

I have a strong feeling that the summer wedding has turned into a monsoon wedding:-)
Waiting for your feedback on the feasts, I am linking you on my page.

Hey ,
When are you coming back
???
hh
I'm back! I'm back! Jet-lagged and over-fed :)
LOL @ Zoheb's comment!
vc : What I meant is : I have burgundy or actually red streaks in my hair. But I rarely sport a bindi - which is quite a no-no for a married woman in South India.
em, pradyot, :), neha : Welcome! first time here I notice...will check out your blogs now...
thanks to the people who blogrolled me. It is a good thing, non?
wow, you noticed and responded! welcome home. that's a long post you have there.
Oops!! That was me Neha commenting before this.

Neha, the post too long to tempt you to read it, huh?
