Happy Deepavali

Yesterday was a public holiday (Festival of lights which is celebrated by Indians) and I was invited to my colleague’s house for a gathering session with delicious Indian home cooked food.

We had a whole variety of spicy food a.k.a. prawn sambal, chicken masala, mutton rendang which went really well with putu mayam , nasi birayani and tosai. These are all Indian delicacies which we are able to find everywhere however, there’s a little twist to it as it was prepared the home cooked way. Everyone enjoyed it and we were all sweating away because of the spiciness level that boosted our taste buds…

We spent almost 2 hours at my colleague’s place chit chatting while filling up our tummy with food on the table. It was a great lunch and we gobbled down everything that is edible served. Kids were having a great time playing while the mums gathered for catch ups on motherhood. Meanwhile, the men were also having their topics about automobiles and cameras. The weather was really hot but we had refreshing juice to quench our thirst and kept us cool under the heat.

Definitely will be looking forward to another Deepavali open house next year…
