Hey! I am just back from Amritsar . It is famous for it's embroidered fabric, jutiyan, vadis and papad. Amritsar is famous for  Phulkari  work suits, dupatta, saree and shawls. Phulkari means flower work. I bought a " Pataila Suit " for my niece which has phulkari work on its dupatta.  Patiala suit- Rs. 750 I picked up one dupatta for myself too at a pretty cheap price of Rs.300. But remember, you need to have good bargaining skills for that. Dupatta- Rs. 300 Walking around the  Hall Bazaar , I saw these beautiful, vibrant Jutiyan. Each pair was in between price range of Rs.150 to Rs.4000.  When in Amritsar you can also buy vadis, achar(pickle) and papad. Vadis are available in 2-3 variants like moong daal and urad daal. Papads are huge in size.  Do post your comments or queries if you are planning for a trip to Amritsar. Cheers!!

Hi Guys, Hosting a birthday party for your little one and thinking about how to keep the kids occupied. So, today I am going to share a game with you which you can prepare at home.  Pass the parcel-  This is one of my favorite game for a party. For this game, items you require are: An empty shoe box Wrapping  paper Paper for slips Sketch pens Glue Scissors Let's start!!! Take a shoe box and wrap it with paper of your kids choice.

Hop like a frog. Dance Pick a friend to dance with. Act like your teacher. Touch your nose with your tongue. Tell a joke. Once all the slips are made, put them in the box.
