My selection of frocks for Mira was overwhelmingly pink (the peach being V's selection) at the aadi sale in Pothys. Shoppers in Chennai have an added excuse to go on a buying spree - the month-long discount sale in the inauspicious month of Aadi. A month when a newly married woman is sent home so that she doesnt conceive in this month to give birth to a kid in the hottest month of the (next) year. And a month when people did not make any purchases - until shops conjured this clever idea of sale.
My parents got back safe and sound from London early dawn today, despite the Glasgow and London bomb scares. But there is a greater scare awaiting them when they land in Kerala - chikun gunya and other mysterious fevers. There seems to be onion fevers and tomato fevers - named after the kind of skin rashes that accompany these fevers.
Thankfully, I have help with the kids until they leave for Kerala on 20th.
