Halloween, Babyshower, Birthday and Two Launches..
.. quite a week. Though no excuse for me being awol from my blog for a long time, it has been quite a busy few weeks, culminating in this one crazy week. While the work week was consumed in making search more social and musical, the weekend was for Halloween themed baby shower and my birthday. My last minute Halloween costume choices were a monk and Che. I decided to do them both - Che who was a monk. And someone at the party aptly named my setup as Chesus. Ishani dressed as a pumpkin and gets more credit for custom self made costumes.

Matrimony packages for Pakistanis...
Could not pass up the opportunity to blog about this. The International section of a prominent and serious Indian news papers, The Hindu, had an article about how online Indian matrimony sites are putting together "packages" for our neighbours across the border in Pakistan.
It was also interesting to diverse set of Google ads all around the article. The users have three ads targeted at Muslim. One for Iyengars, if that's who you are looking for. Either way, you could also get on to a cruise to Europe. :)

Assam Road Trip 2008 Map
I created a custom map with the locations we visited as a part of the road trip in Assam. The locations indicated with the blue markers are places we visited. We are also using this map to add locations associated with the family in Assam. For example, Ishani's grandparents on her mom's side live in Moran (green marker).

Fish for Lunch!
An advantage of living close to the ocean is that you get fresh fish closeby. We got some King Fish (locally known as Vajram) from the market and then recorded amma cooking fish curry and fry.
I put together a video of that below. The ingredients of the paste were not very clear in the video. I have listed them below:
- Paste for the fish curry - coconut, chilli powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder, shallots and curry leaves
- Paste for the fish fry - pepper, fennel seeds, shallots, chilli powder.

Visit to a construction site
This morning we stopped by a home construction site as Mike and Bernie were interested in observing how buildings are constucted here. Mike was true to his reputation, climbing up the rickety ladder to check out the top of the building.


Here are a couple of pictures shot on my G1.


Three Too Many!

This is the first time we have been back home for our wedding anniversary. Is there ever a better excuse for stuffing our bellies with food. Here is a traditional Kerala lunch being laid out on banana leaves.
