Hope you had a lovely weekend. Ours was eventful to say the least! It was our Indian festival of Diwali this past weekend and Indians all over the world were celebrating in grand style. I had planned a big party on Saturday for all my friends and family and had catered food and arranged for sweets to be baked by my friend Rose, only to find out Friday that the high wind danger in our area was going to cause power outages on Saturday evening! After all the planning I had done I had to reluctantly cancel our big party đđ. Better safe than sorry. Continue reading Wonderful Friends, Power Outage, and A Memorable Diwali Weekend.→

How was your weekend and Father’s Day? I hope you got to celebrate and appreciate all the Dad’s in your family. We had a wonderful Father’s Day, at least that’s what Hitesh (Father to my three girls) conveyed to me at the end of the day on Sunday. Hitesh got to do his chillin and relaxing during the day. I made a veggie omelette for him for brunch with savory scones and fresh fruit. After that we planted some veggie seedlings that I picked up from my friend Veena. Then he and the twins went to downtown Los Gatos to take a stroll while I stayed home to get dinner ready for our Father’s Day dinner gathering with my cousins and their families.

Temperatures were in the mild 70s and the garden burst into bloom from the heat wave we had earlier, all this made for a gorgeous backdrop for our Spring Tea in the Garden.
Last Saturday was the twins Junior prom and what a day it was! Gowns were chosen, nails were done, hair styled, makeup on, jewelry worn, shoes on, only thing left was to eat, which they quickly grabbed a snack, just in time to take pictures at sun down. Hectic, crazy, exhausting though it was, the day ended up with a fun-filled evening of girls, gowns and guys all ready for a night out to celebrate being Juniors and Seniors in High School.
Happy Tuesday! Wishing you a great week ahead. Today I would love to share a few pictures from a wonderful dinner we had over the weekend with our good friends and old neighbors Carl and Tracy.Â
Anyone who tells you how fun it is to have twins, let me tell you speaking from one who has twins, it’s not as fun as it seems. And I should know, I have twins and an older child, and now that my older one is and adult and the twins are teens, I can honestly say that it was easier to deal with a single child than with twin teens. They can’t agree on anything – and I mean anything! They bicker non-stop. They have their own set of friends with no overlap whatsoever. They have two unique interests and hobbies. They hate that they share a birthday – I mean seriously? I tell them “You are twins! Hello! That’s what twins means, you share a birthday?” Continue reading Twins Celebrating 17 Birthday Menu→
