Fairly beautiful

Hello Mohlajee Clan!

I'm not sure if all of you know, but I've started my own blog about my cheap and frugal shopping habit and personal style.  Several times a week I post my outfits, cheap things I've found and ramble on about my life in general.  I'd love it if you could check it out or even follow it!

Today I posted about Indian beauty ideals and how they contrast with American ones.  You can check it out here at my blog Cheap Frill.

A Mohlajee Wedding

My wonderful best friend Ashley wrote a blog post on the Ancient Ritual in the Modern World: The anthropology of a Punjabi Wedding featuring my wedding. Ashley is a much better writer than me, and brings an anthropologist/archeologists perspective on a Punjabi wedding so I'm not even going to try and describe the events. She even included some photos, but I thought I would share a special family photo.

Chachiji's Anniversary

Dear Chachiji first anniversary was celebrated yesterday. We bow to the mother, aunt(Chachi ji to many nieces and nephews and her own children, grandmother and great-grandmother. She lived so simply and yet with so much poise and dignity. She aged gracefully as well. All the friends and visitors used to ask us the secret of her health, serene nature and long life. Our answer to that question can be her simple living, light eating (vegetarian food)and possibly detachment from worldly luxuries as well as from relationships.

Another Story on Late K N Mohlajee

Kindly read another interesting story on Late Shri K N Mohlajee http://cities.expressindia.com/fullstory.php?newsid=64596 that throws light on his nature and writing style as a great sports Journalist who had an excellent command on English language ably demonstrated in his smooth translation of visuals into words, an uncanny ability, seldom seen in today’s Sports Journalism that thrives more on inclusions of sensational than stimulation- which was hallmark of Mr K N Mohlajee’s narration of facts and events unfolded for an average or classy reader alike.
