Samaithu Paar!

Our team had an intersting cooking bonaza out at my client site! Everyone was broken into 3-4 groups, we made desi stuff, panner masala, chapati, samosas and votnot!














I got praises from the chef for parathufying the perfect chapati!














Of course! I didnt tell that to my wife, lest she asks me to cook!

Mr & Mrs Iyer.


Interesting isn't it? One day you are single, the next day you have a "significant other". Introducing my wife Priya and her family. We have officially become Mr. and Mrs. Iyer.




Priya's family is from Bangalore, she is currently studying in Michigan. Her parents are currently in Indonesia where her dad is a technical director of a textile company. These are some of the snaps from our marriage.

Interestingly, Karthik and Anusha (Priya's cousin) think getting us married off is a very baaaaad mistake.








Everyone! who came to our marriage and reception kept asking them, "So....onga anna/akka line clearr", "ahem", "onga kalyanam yeppo!"








Karthik got so peeved that he comes to us and says "Deys, onga reundu perukkum kalyanam panni vechathu periya vamba pochu da!" "Oru valiba paiyana summa vida maatangale!"

Anusha chips in "I know!!!!!, Its like my marriage is more important than this freak occurrence in the universe!"

Family Portrait



Finally!


Finally aftera long "vaaku vaatham" my dad agreed to come out for a family potrait.



We went to the nearby Kodak photo shop to get our snaps.
"Rendu 12 x 10 family snap podu pa!", says my bro to the camera man.
"Pichuduiren saar!", "Appa ammava thaniya yedukunugala?"
"Aammam, oru sitting, inoonu, naanga naalu perum"


It took around 25 snaps to get the rare one where my dad finally smiled!
