While it is advent of spring and time for
warm sunny days n beautiful flowers in
most of the western world , the indian
subcontinent is almost on the verge to bid

prepare ourselves for scorching summers !
Though the joy of the cool breeze, waft of
wonderful easter delicacies and colourful
easter eggs and bunnies is all around yet
the hint of warm noons clearly hints
hot dry summers ahead !!

Watermelon, mango, bell peppers,
baby spinach, leeks, cucumber , grape
Easter is incomplete without eggs
and egg hunt . As per the traditional
Easter belief , egg is the symbol of rebirth
and reinvigoration though with time the
traditional sugar easter eggs have been
replaced by the chocolate and candy ones, yet
to me easter invokes childhood memories
and the school canteen where we as kids used
to line up to buy the annual beauties
( candies filled sugar easter eggs )
Ah Childhood !!!
Warm weather n bright balmy sunlight
brings in loads of butterflies too !! Their
magnificent colours truly reflect the
majestic colour of spring, isn't it nice
that we can create the same charisma
with a few fruits n veggies on little
plates too !! After all the festivities are
all about loving , caring ,sharing and
spreading the joy……………….
Happy Easter everybody !!
