What fabulous photos! The Sheths must have been celebrating Diwali Days. Kalpana’s flowers are outstanding, as usual. The saris do make a wonderful contribution to your flowers.
Hi Kalpana,
Thanks for having us over for the Diwali party. Shankar & I had a wonderful time. Also, thanks for the beautiful bowl & candle.
Happy Diwali once again.

Babita
Happy Diwali from all of us to you too and your family Kalpana. We really had a great time thank you so much for inviting us over. I really liked the leaf platter you gave me and Sisira liked her scarf she said she will use it. Take care and have wonderful holiday season ahead.
Hi Lakshmi. Happy Diwali! Want to thank you for the beautiful red bowl! I absolutely love it! Its very unique and I am positive I will be using it a lot. Thank you Lakshmi for bringing the pakoras too, we had a lot leftover and the whole family has been munching on them all weekend 😄. I am so happy all of you could come to our Diwali party. I hope you all had a good time. Thank you too for all your help in the kitchen! Much appreciated 😘

Just a quick note to let you know that the Diwali celebration was fabulous! We all had a great time catching up with friends and enjoying the many delicious dishes! Thank you for including us in this special celebration. Have a wonderful week and please let me know when we’re going to Devi’s. ❌⭕️❌⭕️
I am so happy you and Dave and Alex could come! It was great to have you all part of our Diwali celebrations. Thank you for all the sweet treats, as always they are a big hit!
You looked great too all in gold. It’s always hard to speak to everyone in such a large group for the hostess. I did catch up with some of the ladies I had not seen for a while though. Prasad enjoyed chatting to Stella and her husband. Food was great and not too much left over. So good guessing from all your chefs.
It was also nice to see the younger adult generation at the party.
Hi Shalini. It was good to see you on Saturday both you and Anya were looking gorgeous as ever! That sari looks amazing on you and both you and Anya look great in the photos that we took. Thank you for bringing the dhal, it was perfect, we had just enough leftover for us to have the next day for dinner. Happy Diwali to all of you!
Hi! Thanks for a lovely dinner last night. We all had such a great time. The food was amazing as was the company. Thanks for the platter, aromatic candle and the succulent plants. Hope you can relax today… you put in a lot of effort with the decor and presentation, too. Loved everything!
Hi Nishma. Thank you for coming on Saturday and it was so good to see Shalin too having a great time. I am so happy that the three of you could come!! The party wouldn’t have been the same without you, Kamal and Shalin, so thank you for coming. Ofcourse it goes without saying, I am always grateful for all your help and support during our Diwali party, thank you Nishma. Happy Diwali!
