2008 Deepavali Open Houses

Was invited by 2 of my colleagues to their Deepavali open house... one was on the actual day, invited by Punitha, our receptionist at the office for a simple lunch.. went with Kar Wai and although it was simple, it's very thoughtful of her to invite us and it tasted so good! She usually will go back to her in law's every year but decided to stay home and have us around to celebrate together :D

She made roti jala, chapattti, chicken curry and she bought banana cake (my fav) too :D Homemade will always taste good :)

She made all this treats and cookies too! the Indian sweets was given by her neighbour...

And to prepare all the food, she only slept at 5 am and woke up really early again to welcome her guests.. hebat... it rained that afternoon so we stayed for a while chit chatting and left around 3 something so she could have her rest since she have not got enough sleep that day...
Few days later, was invited to Ganesan's open house... we did not stayed long as he had a lot of guests and family members around, so we bid bye bye after dinner and a short chit chatting
session...

Have not gone to open houses for years... glad to be invited to join in the celebration and fun...
