Today's picture is a photo of my neighbor's fantastic flower carpet, part of the Onam celebration. Yes - the entire design below (except the candles) was created with flower petals. She was also kind enough to invite me and the kids over for the celebration lunch. The food was great, and plentiful, and I got to meet several of my neighbors. The kids played hide and seek while I stuffed my face with great food (also pictured below). Happy Onam!
The girls were dressed in pretty white/tan costumes with gold embroidery, and lunch was served on banana leaves (with no silverware - you only eat the good stuff with your hands). The food was fantastic, and I've been told we'll get to experience it again next weekend, during the celebration for yet another festival.

that is so cool
An interesting discussion is worth comment. I think that you should write more on this topic, it might not be a taboo subject but generally people are not enough to speak on such topics. To the next. Cheers
