I love Indian festivals as it is all about indulging in a tummy full of sweet tooth delicacies. Navratri is no different but, for a change this time around I went with something spicy and decided to make Ammini Kozhukkattai AKA kara/mani/mini kozhukattai. I usually like the sweeter version of kozhukattai and had prepared it few days back for Ganesh Chaturthi. Traditionally kozhukattai is associated with the Hindu God Ganesha, and prepared as an offering on the occasion of Vinayaka Chaturthi.

Hello Guys !!! Hope you all had a great Navratri celebration. I usually prefer wearing saree/salwar for all the Indian festivals but this time I planned to ditch the cliche and go little experimental on festive dressing. I fell in love the moment I saw this electric blue ethnic palazzo pants with traditional motifs (from MAX).

Talking about Egg Puffs, the first thing that comes to my mind is monsoon days in Kerala. Coming home from school all drenched in the rain. I remember my dad used to bring home hot and fresh egg puffs from our local bakery. It was perfect for those chilly evenings with a warm cup of tea.

Living in California we get to enjoy the sun (most of the time). Even though it’s officially Fall, the weather seems to be close to three digits. That’s when I decided to take my favorite palm prints for a weekend spin. I have been so obsessed with palm prints lately and was searching for a perfect one to go with my Cali vibes. Finally, I found this breezy airy one in Forever 21.

If you are in the LA area and want to escape the hustle bustle of your daily routine then, Santa Catalina Island is the place to be. It’s a tiny little paradise, 30 miles off the coast of California, which makes you feel like you are in a private tropical island right in your backyard. The first time we visited Catalina was for our first Valentine’s Day together. We wanted to have a romantic time together without having the hassles of planning a vacation. So we packed our tiny little bags and jumped on an hour-long boat ride to the island.
