Holi hai....let's go ecofriendly.

Holi,the socio-cultural festival of colours heralding spring or basant utsav in various parts of the country also has it's own significance,tradition,legendary stories and rituals.The traditional Thandai,bhang,singing and dancing and bonfires (originating in Varanasi )seem to remind the victory of good over evil again, and enjoying the same with pichkaris and mouthwatering delicacies.Let's spread the message of ecofriendliness with safe colors..

Yes....to Reusable Bags.

Shrevewood Elementary Children bring home a Whole Foods Reusable Bag and it's a nice gesture for the parents to "Go Green".As my daughter brings one and reminds me to use it everytime we go grocery shopping,Whole Foods seems to have delivered a strong message thro' the lil' ones.Spring cleaning is over and plastic bags are trashed,2 reusable bags kept in the car,let's go greeeeeeeen this spriinggggg!!!

Spring arrives...finally!!

Spring,Holi,Ugadi....Lovely...With the weather getting better,the kids and grown-ups rejoice outdoors heralding a new party season.The little buds on the trees are waiting to bloom soon and it's the time of the year when we end our hibernation,flu and chills...the birds too come out chirping and seem to sing the arrival of another good season.
