Active October Updates

This year is turning out to be an action packed one! We attended a totally wild concert last weekend by Anirudh, who is the latest sensation in South India. I had attended a Vidhyasagar concert many years ago. But this one was a totally rockstar performance

Here's a small glimpse when he came on to the stage that was setup near where we were seated

..and managed to click a selfie at the end of the concert, with the stage in the background

We just finished Deepavali and getting over the festivities, gearing up for regular days. Here's a glimpse of how our Deepavali went. First for the sweets & savouries 

This time I tried my hand at making Jeera poli, which my mom makes really well. Turned out quite decently for first try

Manoharams, which has been a childhood favourite and another of Amma's specialty. She used to make these every time any of us went out of town. Last year we made this together, this year I tried to make this on my own and quite happy with how it turned out

..and cornflakes mixture, mohanthal, thenkuzhal & deepavali lehiyam

And on the stitchy front, I have been able to make decent progress

Here's a picture when the QSnap moved

Here's where I am now. The lose threads are ORTS from the month's progress and the glass bowl is ORTS from YTD

 So, that's the progress today friends. Till next time.. take care.. be happy.. keep stitching.. Au Revoir!!
