Deepavali chya Shubechha!
Today is Dhanatroyadashi, the first day of Diwali. Tradition held that it was the day to buy gold. My family never did. What we did do was put a diya on our doorstep and switch on every lightbulb in the house. And we continue with that tradition except that we turn on the lights in a very symbolic fashion - they are turned off soon thereafter.
This year Diwali is going to be very lean. One namkeen and one sweet only. The two people that were polled, voted for kaccha chivda and chavde. I feel like making sanzhori, too. For me; and in memory of my Dad.
Medha lit a diya and wanted to post it to my blog, so here is her diya:
A very Happy Diwali to you and your families!
Happy Diwali!
