Where ever a blogger goes… ;)

Today was the last day of Surajkund Crafts Mela, a colourful celebration of crafts and cultures from all over… I love the ambience and the festive feeling there.

Everybody looked happy

Pink continues to be the Indian male’s favourite colour

I couldn’t resist bringing this Valentine’s Day gift for our moral police

First there were men and women walking hand in hand!  (Took this picture to capture the beautiful ‘darwaza’)

And then there was this lingerie display

How I wish a blackened face could save us from this ashleeltaa

A traditional Rajasthani dance…

And Shehanshah Akbar e alam looked like he needed a hair cut

We ate gobhi , mooli and aloo paranthas with radish-pickle and kabuli-chana. Two women on the next table thought (aloud) the pickle was bland. Here’s how they thought it should be made

Radish, peeled, sliced and cut into 2 inch pieces. Ground mustard seeds, red chilli, turmeric, salt and oil mixed, kept in sun for two days.

Try it?
