December is finally here...waiting for the cold to strike us any day..any time..!
Its finally time to take out the lep/kombol lying in the trunk....shake off the musty smell in them...put them in the sun and wrap one around you....well that's what I do first thing in the morning. Wrap one around me while I sit and sip chai in the living room at 5am waiting for the neighborhood to wake up.
And yes take out all those sweaters, hoodies, lovely stoles, head scarves...wear one each day...show it off to all around..
Time to sip endless cups of tea/coffee...well the only excuse being 'its too cold...I need the caffeine'.
Time to take out the Christmas tree, the tuni lamps, stars and the huge Santa from the closet and prepare for a nice party for the kids
Wait and watch the Chrysanthumums/Calendula/Roses/Dalia bloom..
Keep a tab on all the fairs in the town, visit them, go on a shopping spree and then look for a place to hoard them...
There's so much to do in December - the weather is favourable. the chill makes you work hard, party harder, wear all those clothes which I would hate to wear in summer, cook and eat as much you want..my most favorite season! Well, the best part is that its holidays for the boy which means no getting up early, no thinking your head out trying to decide the boy's tiffin next day, no deciding evenings depending on the boys homework and yes no early morning tantrums!!
This is what I call 'Maha-anondo'! Wish all the mothers with school-going kids 'Maha anondo'...!
