At night when the stars light up my room, I sit by myself, talking to the moon. Tonight is a very special night for me, and it's Kojagiri Pournima (Sharad Pournima as some might say). Ever since a child, year after year, we celebrate this day by sitting in the night flooded with the light of the full moon, drinking milk. Since moon is supposed to be closest to the earth on this day, the moon rays are said to have curative properties. The vessel containing the sweet is prepared and left in the moonlight to be consumed later. According to Ayurveda, the `pitta' or acidity aggravates at the end of the monsoon season. This is the reason why cooling foods are recommended to neutralise the pitta and balance it. The consumption of cold milk and rice flakes is supposed to be a good remedy for pitta. Coming back , I remember my mother would make me sit by the window,...
As you know (or maybe not) I turned 20 on 27th June, just a couple of weeks ago.
On this day I didn't dress up, didn't even try applying make up for once. I am 'me' and it is extremely gratifying and liberating.
I was thinking we could get to know each other ! Okay, I'll go first.
Here are a couple of things of me :
1. I love chocolates !
2. I'm addicted to books. (Thorough potterhead )
3. I hate dishonesty.
4. I can't live without Masala Dosa and Uttappa.
5. I make mistakes.
I try to be as honest as I am through my blogs and this is my journey so far !
Excited for upcoming adventures π
Did I mention I like Balloons ?
Tell me about you on Instagram !
Until we meet againπ
xoxo
Anu
