Shamoo's Miraculous Uneven Chocolate Caramel Squares

Love from Siam!

I made it to Goa finally

In early Jan, right after new years, I went to Goa, for the first time ever (this comes as a shock to all people)
I have to admit, I really enjoyed myself, and I am glad I finally made it there!

Which brings me to - Why don't we celebrate 2 years of Carroteaters by the seaside somewhere?

On the last night - All of Goa still had their Christmas 

decorations out.

Mutton

On my way from the Cant. station back to Yelahanka I see hoards and hoards of sheep all lined up. And sheep-keepers, wrapped in woolen shawls (a thought here diverges to that chapter on animal husbandry that we had in school - about using all parts of the animal, etc.), are waiting for people to come and buy them off - last chance for the big sacrifice tomorrow. There must be close to 500 sheep on that one stretch of road near JC Nagar. I'm wondering, what do they do if they have leftover sheep? Take them back and bring them again next year? Cut them up anyway? It's Bakrid tomorrow. Whether or not you're buying into the story of Ibrahim, mutton's going to be expensive.

Drummers Galore!

I had the best sunday in a long long time. The TamTams is this drum circle festival, where hundreds of people get together with all sorts of percussion instruments every sunday through the months of summer in this large park, and Jam. There are people dancing, playing music and chilling out. It was out of the world, literally. I cant tell you just how much i missed you two, and Gautam. I took all these pictures only to show you how much fun it was :) We have to come here together sometime.
