Sundays. Hardly the day to dress up and that too all fancy-like. Yet, that is exactly what my beautiful mother Vatsala did one fine Sunday in January. Yes this is a 3 month old photo, but fits perfectly into the saree pact thanks to Anju and Ally, else it would have only been relegated to yet another digital photo in the comp.
\nThis is yet another gifted saree gifted to my very gifted Mom (don’t go all ‘Aiyo!’ now, I thrive on being a terrible punner :P) by her mother and my beloved Amamma, Sarojini Nayak, who has featured in the sareepact in an earlier photo. Don’t know what it is about the saree, but I think it makes Mom look all regal-like when she wears it.
\nThis pic was taken after a wedding where I happily stuffed my face – in my defense the lunch menu had some 8 different ‘podis’ or spice powders to be mixed with steaming hot rice…heavenly! Eeep…how did saree fotu become about food? Aiyo! Shall stop now tongue emoticon
\nSaree is a parrot green Kanjeevaram with a rich pink border and fine lines running all through it. On the green body of the saree, not visible in pic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
