Shankranthi

Today was special indeed as it happened to be Shankranthi and more so because I got to spend it with my family. Here are a few pics that tell you more about how wonderful today was.



There's nothing that can substitute a beautiful rangoli during festivals. Rangoli gives you a feel of the essence of festivals and it also gives a scope for creativity. This was mine. Nothing very fancy a simple and nicely filled.







Festivals without sweets .. totally unimaginable. 
Mom made Shakare pongal and it was yummy!!





 This was the Khara Pongal made by me. Looks ok but tasted finger licking with loads of ghee, it had to taste good. 







The lamp that was lit all day!!




More of the sweets made of Sesame seeds, groundnut, jaggery, Coconut and loads of peppermint's. It's the shankranthi special 











Those are the home made sugar candies (sakkare achhu). They melt in your mouth and leave you wanting for more!!
