Happy Diwali!

I have had a jolly good time bursting crackers, taking photos and walking late at night on the main road only with my best friend. I was partially deaf once, forgot to breathe twice and saw lights instead of faces quite a few times.
Hope you had a very Happy Diwali!


photo c/o soumya sett and my best friend's sister actually made this cracker with her own hands!



Goodbye till next time!

    2. No crackers ya...firecrackers are illegal here in NSW so we really can't do much in terms of that...I stopped years ago though after discovering little kids made them and got sick in Sivakasi but I am a complete candles and fairy lights person and am refusing to turn proper lights on...heehee...and I always thought Cal got cold in winters, I remember it getting pretty chilly when we used to visit for holidays. Its not like that anymore?

    3. illegal?that's sad!i am a candles and fairy lights lover to the bone!and Cal gets chilly during the early morning hours or late evenings only..not enough to do cool crazy layering..half the reason i don't dress as crazy as i would love to is the weather here.
