    @periamma
    ,

    Inspired by you, this is the offering to Sun God in my backyard...

    It is a cooker pongal though, to make it easy and convenient for the making :)

    @Jyo17,

    Happy Thala Pongal to you! You nailed it on the traditions, pretty much everything done in a typical South Indian homes for this 3-days festival.

    Don't miss out on the Sugar canes. You should be able to find it in the Korean stores, check it out :) Looks like you are in CA, bet the desi stores themselves should carry those cut piece of Sugar cane and fresh Turmeric.

    Dear Periamma,

    Thanks for the lovely thread. Enjoyed reading every post.
    Pongal / Makar Sankranti / Bihu / Baisakhi / Lal Lohi etc...names are different but the purpose is the same. Pray to Mother Earth and Nature to bless us in plenty and the welfare of all of loved ones. Happy Pongal dears!!!
