A little masala goes a long way. Wednesday, February 10, 2010. My Apples Cause National Security Alerts. A view of what I missed in Muscat. Maybe one day we will get to go back. When we got to the customs inspector, he looked at our form, and said "I see here you have some apples, how much do you have? Obviously holding back a smirk. "Three." I said. "Three apples?

Southern Masala: August 2006

A little masala goes a long way. Thursday, August 03, 2006. Passage to India- Southern Masala Style. I thought I was going to die, even the South Indians were complaining about the heat. So again no more sleep and then we were finally on the way to Chennai. Poor guys, but I am so grateful that the people were so nice and helpful in that situation. I was terrified that I had been robbed blind because the case was open coming through the airport, but miraculously, nothing was missing! Links to this post.

So I am going to do a series of posts about our wedding in Pakistan and the different ceremonies, etc. We got married in August of 2006, and we didn't have the full-out traditional Pakistani wedding with all the multitude of different ceremonies. Basically we had three, a combination mehndi/dolkhi, a nikkah, and what we called a "reception" which I guess was some hybrid valima/rukh satti thing. Links to this post.

A little masala goes a long way. Thursday, September 14, 2006. I could really only mostly see the outside of the temple because non-hindus are not allowed. My friends told me that this was not the way it had always been, but was more a product of the British Imperial era. Hindus were bannned from Christian churches by the British (I guess they didn't want the locals hanging around? The largest temple in Chennai. A close-up of some of the figures on the sides of the temples. Posted by Southern Masala.

Here you can see what the stage looked like. That is my sil giving me a gift. Knocked on the window, asking for some money to bless the bride.

A little masala goes a long way. Monday, February 28, 2011. Hello, hello, is this thing still on? I still want to catch up with chronicling what has happened in my life since I started this blog in 2006, but I will post some new stuff too as we go along. Watched the Oscars last night, realized that I am fully in the throes of mommy-hood. The only movie I had seen out of all ten nominated for best picture was Toy Story 3! The only ones I had seen nominated in any other category were kids' movies too!

I really felt like I was getting ready to move on to the next stage of my life. And I was, we had just a few days to pack up all our stuff, finish negotiating the purchase of our first house, and get to Texas.
