A Lovely Weekend!!

We all look forward to weekends..and last weekend was a wonderful one. On Friday, we did dinner and a movie at M&M' s place. We reached their house at around 7.45 and as soon as they opened the door, I could smell something baking...The aroma was enticing!!! I went straight to the kitchen and found out that she was baking cookies..chocolate chip cookies form scratch!!!Soon the first batch of cookies was ready..and they were yum yum...

We had taken Idlys and my husband's absolutely delicious onion and red chili chutney. M had made potato stew (traditional Kerala dish) and pav bhaji. We ate the pav bhaji first, settling down in the living room to watch Golmal.

We got back home by 12. Saturday was uneventful, till afternoon at least. We sat down to watch some TV and I was busy with a knitting project. I sat in such a way that I could see the fuchsia plant...after some time two birds appeared and my husband was at the balcony door in an instant...Do you want to see the result of my keen observation (I should take some credit right?!) and my hubby's photography skills...here goes

Finally on Sunday we went for the Independence Day Parade and Mela..it was fun..with lots of floats and food, clothes and jewellery stalls.

Could you ask for a better weekend??
