With California on restricted socialization because of COVID it was hard for us to host our usual big Diwali celebration. But what’s Diwali without a friend or two to celebrate it with? With our pandemic bubble including our friends Shalini and Prasad it only seemed appropriate to celebrate Diwali with these two special friends. Here is a look at our modest celebration with a Diwali lunch in our courtyard.

Plenty of conversation and laughter to go around
Diwali lunch with Shalini and Prasad was truly special. With just our two families it was an intimate and beautiful Diwali celebration. I’m really liking these outdoor small gathering even in our chilly fall.
