 My dear Meenu ! I am very happy that you find this week's post delightful. I love the scene of rows of lamps kept in front of houses, those 2 days. That has a serene, divine beauty, which electric lights can never provide ! Thanks for your FB. Happy karthikai ! Love & regards, Chithra.      |

| Nice to hear from you, Laxmi ! This year Annamalai deepam is on 3rd, sunday & Shivalaya deepam is on 4th monday. Different families go by the different days. I personally light on both the days + 5 th as well ( we call it kuppai karthikai, when specially a light is kept in the backyard without fail ! ) Happy kathikai ! Love & regards, Chithra. |

| Hello Kanaka ! Welcome to the beautiful I L Home ! It is likely, that you will also get addicted to this site, as much as we are ! You are right, it is customary to buy 2 new lamps every year; even earthenware akals are good enough. It is nice to receive your first F B, in my forum, Kanaka. Please stay tuned ! Happy Karthikai ! Love & regards, chithra. |
