Just close your eyes. Now.
What do you hear? What do you see? What do you feel?
* Mango trees are sprouting blooms.
* Big fat barbets are singing again.
* Some more Malai Kulfis.
* Memories of last summer come flooding back.
* The heady fragrance of ripe juicy Mangoes.
* Corner House's 'Fig and Honey' or maybe 'Vanilla Choco Chip' ice cream.
* Glasses of Nimboo Pani with Kala namak are guzzled in litres.
* Time for my special smoothies.
* Dreaming of summer vacations, hey wait, I am not in school anymore.
* Flip Flops.
* Fresh flowers on the dining table.
* Change those bedspreads to pastels or floral prints.
* Fruit custard and jelly!(Childhood memories)
* Sunrays are brightening different corners.
* The roads seemed empty yesterday afternoon.
* Love green signals.
* The purple of the jacaranda trees dot the lanes.

Have a good day
the slowly getting warmer breeze thawing me
sunlight being more intense and reaching into sleepy dark corners
children in shorts and tanks
a skip in everyone's step
birds and bird calls
ice-pops and ice-pop induced stained little mouths and lips
playing outside
sitting on the porch and slurping something/anything chilled
sunsets at 8:00pm
walks, long walks
What do I see?- other blogs for now :)
What do i smell? lunch cooking in coconut oil- the house is filled with that aroma
What do I feel? I feel calm, but I've got to pack to go back to bombay, my 10 day vacation ends today! woooaahh!!! :(
Absolutly great and by reading this you sent breathtaking fresh flowers to my mind Arch...thanks and great words
awesome light again Arch...In love with the new header too !
I see cashews covering the trees. And the blue skies in Goa.
d- The brackets are custom made..it's very simple and can be replicated by any welder/carpenter.
Mallika's room is still not done. Will definitely share once we are through:-)
Sharanya- You have water lilies at home? Wow!
Nat- Welcome to my blog:-)
Vineeta- LOL:-)
Sapna, Chandan, Anil- Thanks:-))
what i meant was where did you get the angle supports for the brackets. (the brass / wrought iron / whatever metal ones). i have some myself, but since i could'nt get nice angle supports i got the brackets bolted into the walls. i wanted something similar but the hardware stores i went to had ugly gold coloured angles with elaborate designs.
