Once we went to My sister's place, Madurai and we planned to go to Lord Meenakashi temple, all are getting ready except me. And my sister who is watching me asked me "why you are like this, it is getting late, go and dress up yourself." I replied her very cool , " dont worry I will wear Black. " That is all. All laughed at me. Then only I realized that I am in India, and I went to change my lovely nighty.

Hi sumathi,

its really good joke, i think i also will do the same when i go to india in august, because we r deadly habited to this abhayaa. hope no one laughs at me. i only have one trouble here because kids like to have dinner out some times, here we dont' get pure veg food outside. so kids r bored up they say when we go to india every two days they go out for dinner and chats, i cook well but they say they r bored of me cooking in kitchen all the time so they want all of us to go out for food.

My son is 1yr old, he is my bose. He wants me to dance, sing, etc... We both used to do these things, but very difficult to feed food for him. My husband is a doctor.He is like my mom.my mother died when i am small.I love my father alot..

Hi Priya,

Are you working any where? I will keep 'sticker bindi' and also 'kumkum' that is 'sindhur.
Thanks for your feed back. dont mistake me, If you give feed back in that thread, other ladies will try it. ok ya?
Sweet name for your son. If you want to know about oil painting, please visit the 'craft' forum there are many threads on this. You will enjoy it.
No priya you are not crazy, it is natural. Go and enjoy your vacation. By the way when are you going to India, and which part of India?
Bye for now.

Hi Madhu,

Same applies for me also. I am also elder daughter in my family, and my mother and father now living with my sister. But even before we go and stay in our own flat and I used to cook for us. No problem for me. sometimes we go out for food. Totally we enjoy our vacation very much.

We stayed in Panduranga Nagar Colony near Erragadda. Do you know that place?

we have not planned yet about our trip. after booking the ticket I will tell you.
