Just a Typical Weekend in India


GREAT COMPANY

GOOD TIMES!!!


This weekend was fantabulous!!!  On Friday night, I headed out with "the crew" for a picnic dinner at a spot known as "Dolphin's Nose."  We drove further up the mountains in order to come to a dead-end point where apparently many come to enjoy the night skies and view of the local city, Coimbatore.  What was on the menu you ask?  Homemade chicken sandwiches, Pringles' cheddar-flavored chips, apple juice and for dessert, chocolate!  It was a dinner of champions topped with youthful laughter, familiar tunes and a beautiful open night sky.










On Sunday, I headed out again to the infamous "Beverly Hills of India" home for a night of homemade pizza making, cookies and cream ice cream eating and Sweeney Todd movie watching.  Even after a long and event-filled weekend and time spent cooking in the kitchen, I still found myself up and talking into the wee hours of the night with my India partner in crime, Salome, and her long-time family friend "Cheriyan Uncle," who is more like a real uncle than a title of respect (in India, "Mr." and "Mrs." are replaced with "Aunty" and "Uncle").  As time progresses and I spend more time with my new Indian family here, I realize that it may be harder than anticipated to say good-bye when the time presents itself.
