Halloween in the Neighborhood 2019
How was your Halloween Thursday? Ours was really nice walking with the kids in our neighborhood. The weather was pleasantly warm and there were a good number of people out and about having a great time. A few streets down the road from us take Halloween extremely seriously and decorate their homes, their entire street, and get all decked out for Halloween. It’s practically like walking in a Halloween street party! It’s all in good fun with everyone having a wonderful time. Here is a look at a few pictures I took of the festivities.

Wonderful Friends, Power Outage, and A Memorable Diwali Weekend.
Happy Tuesday!
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 😒😞. Better safe than sorry. Continue reading Wonderful Friends, Power Outage, and A Memorable Diwali Weekend.

Father’s Day Celebration with an Indian Vegetarian Dinner
Happy Tuesday!
I hope your week started off great!
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.

Happy Father’s Day!
Happy Father’s Day to all the amazing Dads!
May your day be relaxing surrounded by the people you love 💙💙💙!
You’ve Been There For Me
You’ve been there for me all my life,
And loved me through both joy and strife.
Thank you Dad for believing in me,
Thank you for taking my side
Through all the ups and downs of life,
And every bumpy ride.
So with gratitude I’d like to say,
Have a Happy Father’s Day!
