Happy Onam, dear readers 🙂 We had a wonderful day today, at my parents’ place 🙂 A few pictures of the pookalam, the flower carpet are shared here, for your pleasure 🙂

A collage of mom’s pookkalams this Onam season… 🙂

The one on Onam day, 23 August, 2010

I did do some of the work, the foundation of which was laid by Shanta and her son Manikandan

Ahem! Finishing touches… 🙂

The Thampuraans and Thampuraattys… that is what we call the royal personages of the erstwhile land 🙂 At our family temple atop a little hill! Only two of the lot are true blue mallus!
