Give Gifts To Fellow Ilites - Worry Not - Zero Cost

First World Problem -- should I first say thanks for the gifts I got or give the gifts in mind?

For @BhumiBabe - a snow globe to gaze at and write beautiful poems. It will have adjustable speed.


For @jskls - blank note cards with envelopes, of the color of the edge of a lotus petal, to write poems, short observations and doodle. To give to others, starting with me, : ) or to keep. : )

For @ashima10 a toy staircase. : ) To keep at work, and run her fingers on it when not herself going up and down stairs. I can never take elevator now without feeling guilt after reading how she goes up and down stairs regularly. : )



For meri pyaari @iyerviji - a necklace display mannequin to take pictures of her creations.

 

For myself: A guaranteed copy of Forest of Enchantments by Chitra Divakaruni on the day of its publication. Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni places Sita at the center of new novel - Times of India

"a powerful comment on duty, betrayal, infidelity and honour, the novel is also about women's struggle to retain autonomy in a world that privileges men... Divakaruni transforms an ancient story into a gripping, contemporary battle of wills."​
