I am at our Kuldevat Mahalakshmi temple in Kolhapur. Feeling totally blessed. My mother’s native place. I like the typical Kolhapuri Marathi accent. Have heard my Aai mama maushi speaking in this typical tone all my life. This saree is a beautiful memory. Gifted by my eldest Mama Mami. Backbone of our Deshpande family. Although they are not with us physically; they still exist for all of us. I am missing them today lots. Hence decided to wear a saree giften by them in their native place. My mother told me specifically to get glass bangles for her from an old shop outside the temple. That reminds me\u201a don’t miss my typical marathi \u0939\u093f\u0930\u0935\u093e \u091a\u0941\u0921\u093e ( green bangles) and Khun (\u0916\u0923) blouse. Offered \u0913\u091f\u0940 ( coconut\u201a gajara\u201a haldi kumkum\u201a green bangles\u201a saree\u201a sweet) to Mahalakshmi. I am off for some shopping now.
