Gabfest: And Thereby Hangs A Tail

Thank you Team work pays off.
Last year when I was alone did nothing.
You can't do it alone Gauri. You need motivating people around you for such tasks!

Enjoy the delicacies sent by MIL and a happy Diwali to you.

 

I too miss all the josh of Diwali! Sighhhs.

 

after seeing your yummy pictures I was motivated to try something new !

Happy Festival of Lights folks

 

Maybe. I just thought the criticisms were interesting, that there are now two versions of the story. A little something more for the fans to enjoy and rejoice I guess!

On "mankind vs humankind": I usually understand the usage of "mankind" as a general reference to the civilization as a whole, not specifically the male gender. "Humanity" is a good alternative. I use it often but mostly because it sounds cooler to me, just a matter of preferences. We do use "man" to address other person/people in casual conversations, isn't? Also "guys", "dudes" etc. Gender-neutral and inclusive much, not? Sometimes I don't get the feminists arguments. "Mankind" works for me!

 

Lovely.. Enjoy the festival the lights..

 

Yummmmm

No matter what I prepare Gulab jamoon remains my favorite....

 

I made Jamoons under same rule
Planning to enjoy this Diwali
And you are making me to crave more by posting all those delicious things.

 

Mom was supposed to make this on all my birthdays. Now I made them so she will be shocked to see the pic

 

Hi fi..

All my birthdays too had Gulab Jamoon from mommy ..

No wonder that's our favorite sweet..
