Independence Day

~ Happy Independence Day ~

the celebration of Tricolor 

15th August is the most important day in the 

Indian history and this year is definitely much 

more special as we are all geared to celebrate our

 70th Independence Day today. This auspicious day 

is surely the day of celebration!! Streets, malls, 

market places, offices and  houses are beautifully

 decked up in gorgeous shades of the Indian 

tricolour. Music of patriotic songs seems to be 

echoing in from far and wide, there is a wave of 

celebration everywhere !!! 

Peacock - Our National bird   

Peacock fruit n candy platter - cookies, apple, 

kiwi and some tricolour candies(opt). 

India is a land of colours and peacock our 

national bird beautifully exhibits the most 

vibrant and shimmering colours one can think

 of. The bird is a symbol of grace and love and 

finds mention in almost all Indian scriptures.

So go ahead involve the  tiny ones in this

 super  easy DIY peacock theme platter 

and add some fun and healthy element to the 

celebrations today.

A food bloggers love for hoarding endless

 pieces of beautiful chinaware is just too 

difficult to be put into words. On every visit to

 local markets, malls, city/intercity escapades

 the eyes frantically keep on searching for new

 props, new tableware and  gorgeous bright 

linens ... Back home making space for newly

 found booties in overflowing cupboards,

 or shoving some larger picks under beds 

are things we immensely enjoy !!!Few days 

back while selecting chinawares for an up-

coming shoot, the uncanny connection between

  condiment bowls and facial features and  the 

striking unspoken similarity between spoons n

 fashion danglers awakened the artist in me , as a

 result of which a crockery + creatures

 series, which hubby named CROCREATURE

 was born.

…gets me back to blogging !!

The call of the Blogsphere has  been too hard 

to resist and finally i'm back to blogging and 

fun food love after a long time. The  past few

months revolved  around several professional

assignments,family commitments, meditation

practice and evening swimming sessions with

daughter.  

And one day …….

Though blogging had taken a back seat yet my

love for fun foods and art had never stopped

taking form in my sketch book. One day while

choosing props for an upcoming shoot

the artist in me started seeing forms in simple 

chinawares. How some condiment bowls owed 

similarity to teddy ears or how a pizza plate with a 

handle resembled  front profile of the trunked beast. 

Through out the shoot days a corner of my brain  had 

been silently observing,coding n de coding them for the 

new theme. After seeing the rough layouts and quick

idea shots hubby exclaimed" Nice CROCREATURES' 

and thus the idea of crockery as creatures were born !!!
