    We all know Diwali is around when the whole family is willingly or unwillingly put on to Mission Clean For Diwali.

    The Diwali Shopping.

    Diwali comes with a lot of shopping. New Clothes. New Shoes. Lots of Sweets. No Diet Rules.

    The Gift Baskets.

    Nut boxes, Sonpapdi packets, Fancy wrapped gift baskets or the generation to generation passed gift baskets... we cannot deny our excitement for the wrapped up bundle of joy.

    The Light Decoration.

    When Dad acts as an expert electrician and you become creative to light up the house. P.S. You can never have enough lights.

    When the family comes together.

    Every Diwali is incomplete without family. No matter where we live, we book our tickets to be home to be with family.

    Happy Diwali

    Wishing each one of you a very Happy Diwali. Hope you made it home already. :)
