Happy Diwali /Deepavali to all my lovely readers!!Hope you are enjoying this festival of lights with your dear
ones and with lots and lots of diwali sweets and snacksJ
For this Deepavali I made a simple savory snack which
reminds me of a very very special person who is very close to my heart.
Back in my hometown in Kerala, it’s a very closely knit
society and our neighbours are more like our family.So the Ammumma next door is
more like my own grandmother.
I must admit that I spend a veee bit more time with her than
my real grandparents. As both my parents were working I can say that I was practically
living at their place.My clumsy description can't do justice to a person like our
Ammumma…Infact all of us called her Ammumma including the kids gang ,my
parents, other uncles and aunts in our colony.Such a pious, serene, loving
person she was..The fondest memory I have of her is me lying down by her side
in a straw mat in afternoons and she
reading out stories from “Urumbum Pravum”.
How I wish I got a chance to relive all those precious moments..I
wish I could go back and hold her hands once more and tell her how much we all
adored her…
Even though she is not with us anymore..her memories are soo
vivid and I still can feel the her love and warmth..Love u always Ammuma..
