My blogging family

I don't remember whether it was me or my elder sister who first started writing a blog! So I wont take complete credit for being an inspiration for people in my family to start their own blog :)
I, my sister Shilpa and Hemant already write blogs. Shilpa is an avid and new quilter (if that is indeed a word), hemant is an out-an-out foodie, like me and he writes about his experiments in the kitchen.
My friend Ishani also has her blog, Moments of Life, which is a sheer pleasure to read! She writes in a very straight and lucid manner. I loved her recent post - Au revoir 2011; a cool way of saying goodbye to the year 2011 :)
We have a new addition on the blogosphere with Sayali, my cousin starting her own blog - My world today! She is a new blogger and her blog is sure gonna be interesting to read!
So here we are, a big blogging family :)

Christmas in Panchgani

This year I went to Panchgani, Mahableshwar on Christmas day. I am absolutely crazy for strawberries and the season for these berries begins in December. Even if we got them a little expensive than what we would have got in Jan-Feb, I hogged at them like anything. Instead of me blabbering away to glory, let me just share some pictures of the trip :)

This is my husband and mom-in-law, getting Strawberries with whipped cream and ice cream for us.

Family Happiness Time

I don't know if this is becos of Christmas or what, but being with your family this time induces the happiness quotient in your life. My parents-in-law, brother-in-law and uncle and aunt had come down for the weekend. We went to the Corinthians Club in Pune for a nice Sunday night dinner.
They brew their own beer, which is an added attraction for this place (My family is a HUGE beer fan). To add to the happiness was a local band played Beatles and John Lennon all evening.
The air was filled with fun, music, beer and family time.
The atmosphere rang with joy. We had a best time out there in company of our elders.
