Diwali in Southall

It's a week late, but I think next year a trip to Southall during Diwali is in order. A short little spot from The Guardian:

Southall celebrates Diwali: Navdeep Singh Kandola visits Southall to see how the west London borough's Hindu, Sikh and Jain communities celebrate the 'festival of light'.



Happy belated Diwali! Hrm... I have a sudden hankering for Indian sweets.

Momma knows best

Not that I'm in favor of women getting up at 4am to fix food for their family, but this mom goes to amazing lengths to entice her picky kid to eat healthy food. Cool photos of her food creature creations:
