"The IL's Maargazhi Twin Feast"-meet that gained momentum

Dear Meena,
You and Ramya are making me very embarassed with your write up. You youngsters interacted with everyone so nicely that made us also feel young. We wish you both a bright future and success in all your endeavours.
Love,
Pushpavalli

Dear most Pushpavalli ma'am,

First of all my (our) heart felt thanks for what you have been yesterday. You were the energetic most among all of us and i could make out that you had prepared your mind to exhibit a "smiling face" always. Your smile really attracted both of us ma'am (Meena and myself). We were chit chatting about the same till i got Meena into an auto from my place to hers .

How can we exaggerate on something which we experienced and loved by heart ma'am ?? It was all a fact and we enjoyed the meet thoroughly in all respects.

Eagerly waiting to relish all the photos that were taken ma'am.

Thank you once again and i promise we will experience even more closeness, love and affection in the forth coming meets.

Take care and regards
RamyaVaradharajan

I could not find words to express my greatfulness to both of your write up regarding the meet. Dear Chithra, thank you for posting the picture
I have not taken the picture of the dishes because I have not prepared anything except the salad. As I had taken the pictures in a new camera I could not post the pictures. I found some problem while installing the software. As soon as I install it, I"ll post the pictures. Last evening some guests had arrived and they left only in the afternoon. Hence I had no time to open the computer also. I feel Ramya had exagarated about our hospitality and I really feel very much embarassed.We all really enjoyed the meet and we felt as if we were all bound with the cord of love. All gracious oldies and budding bubbling energised youngsters did not find the so called generation gap.
Chitra was so sweet to bring her yummy tasty ginger pulav, the cococola cake, the sweet and hot pickle, all mouth watering ones.
The whoe Menu:

1. Sambar rice 2. Coconut rice 3 Pulihorai 4. Kalkandu rice 5.Curd rice
Tomato raitha, Aviyal, sweet fruit raitha and mango pickle
Methu vadai, Appalam, (Potato and banana chips brought by Lakshmi and Bhooma )and Gulabjamun.As I was expecting 19 persons I had ordered catering. But altogether we were only 11 persons.
Sorry for not posting the pictures and I hope to post them by tomorrow. Thanks for all the Ilites who made the meet a memorable one and for Preethi a special thanks for joining us. Preethi is a fashion jewel designer and she was wearing a bluestoned jewelry matching with her dress which was very beautiful. She started it as a hobby and now some of her friends are showing interest and requesting her to make for them also.

Love,
Pushpavalli

With all your blessings we have already inherited the spark from you ("Goldies") ma'am

We will surely follow the suit and try our best to outsmart !!

Hi Singara Chennai team (the lucky ones who had a blast...)
Kudos to you and your enthusiasm which made the meet a huge success.
Loved the snap and nice to know new faces.

Ramya & Meena neelakantan..
I have always admired the way you address each individual in your posts with a humble "maam so & So!")

So our blogger RamyaV is a recent recruit?I felt you were much older seeing the maturity with which you choose & handle "blogging." (Now I know I am wrong!!)

Hope to meet you guys during the next meet.

Honeybee

Dear Pushpavalli ma'am

Its not a kind of exaggeration..Those words came from deep down our hearts.
What we youngsters have not done, have not thought, you have done it all. May long live that smile on your face aunty. I felt a great sense of intimacy which i would not have experienced anywhere else in a meet like this attending for the first time.

Thanks a lot for your wishes aunty. Only such blessings from you elders keeps us going n that is what we need the most too.

Love
Meena

Hi Honeybee ma'am

This sort of respect we should show to our senior IL'ites. Else in what way we will show our gratitudes to you all?

Eagerly waiting to meet you n many others in our next meet ma'am..

Love
Meena

Dear Honeybee ma'am ("active user name that when visualized makes us an active bee")

Thank you very much for dropping a note on the positive light. Ah.. Guess my mom will really be happy when she saw your post on "me being matured" :) :) :) Yes. Indeed a very new and fresh recruit .

My wishes for us to meet soon and share more than what we did yesterday!!

All ILites are very unique and demands respect in their own way. I was left with the only choice of addressing by "ma'am" as i felt it was essential to create my own identity !! Think i have left some kind of impact. Sounds great and proud.

With love and regards
RamyaVaradharajan

Hi Ramya
You have brought out the essence of the meet. I don't think I could have put it in a better way. Keep it up. I think you have the qualification to become our voice whenever we meet. Did your mom get any time at the computer yesterday?
Lakshmi

Hi All
Hats off to Pushpa mam and all of us!
Yesterday was a day to remember. I never felt that I am new to this group. I was welcomed with open hands by all as soon as I introduced myself as lakshmi1945. As Pushpavalli and Chitra have mentioned we never felt our age . Infact the youngsters Ramya,Meena , Gayathri and all the youngsters made us feel young again. Chit vish, waiting for the recipes of ginger pulao and fizzy cola cake. Pushpa mam, the ambience was excellent. i fell in love with your house. Next time when we i.e.Bhooma and I co-host you must ask Mr. Srinivasan too to come. Priya I am waiting to show you the neckace I have made. I am glad that Ilites has brought a wonderful friend in Bhooma living so near me. Thanks for the photo. I really feel a true member of Ilite after viewing the photo.
Lakshmi

Dear Lakshmi ma'am,

A very warm welcome to this thread. If i get another chance, i will be the most blessed and graced person on this earth. First of all my hearty regards and thanks to our lovable and adorable Chitvish ma'am who lavishly and generously entrusted me on bringing this write up into lime light.

Thank you ma'am for having left us with your valuable feed back.

(my mom still complains that i have glued myself on to the computer , more so from the meet that which we all relished and experienced)

Eagerly waiting for another opportunity to voice my views and pen down my thoughts on the knowledge and wisdom that i will gain in the next IL meet !!

Regards
RamyaVaradharajan
