I probably don't know enough to know what to ask. The 'dot' will be a good one. I really enjoy everything you come up with. So just anything you think of and every thing you see is ok by me.

i have enjoyed your blog for a while. but as you know, i would love to know how you make chai. I have a recipe i use here, but id like to know how you do it. other than that i would really love to know more about the kind of work you all do...

i like anything ya'll write about!
I want to know if Indian people are relatively clean people...like use soap when they "wash" their hands, etc. locals here are NOT clean at all!

Hmmm...India = clean? That should be an interesting post! :) How about something on temples in your area? (sorry if you've already done one on that!) Umm...or how about a tour of your house? Or a listing of the most famous sites to see while in the Capital?

How hard is everyday life? For instance, what's shopping, cooking, running errands like? How loud is it there? I'd also like to see a photo with as many people in it as possible.

I like Deanna's ideas! Also I like when you post cultural information, because I always learn new things. :)

Thanks for the pic! :-) It makes me smile everytime I see it! Kinda like a reminder of the "Good ol' days!!" Some things never change, like our fun hubbies!
-I always wonder what do you guys eat the most - do you try to make American food or do you go for the local stuff?

Oh, I want to know how to make chai too!

I need to ask this question on our blog too. I just never know what people will find interesting.

Cooking!

Cooking is sooo much harder here. THis is how you "puree" vegetables when you don't have a blender or food processor (or power). Some people have those things, but most people don't. This is my friend Gita. She's mashing up some onions. It's a marble slab that's not polished and they use a big rounded rock and just roll/mash! It's cool!!

Protesting

There's some political stuff going on in our city (and now the country) right now. People are peacefully fighting against corruption. It's been very interesting to follow. Tonight there was some protesting in our neighborhood. Here are some more protesting pictures. There will probably be more protesting to come... we'll see what happens!

Jaya's Engagement!

My good friend Jaya (Mayank's sister that lives in M-town) - just got engaged!  On Sunday, I took the trip to M-town to go to her Engagement Ceremony (or Ring Ceremony).  It was a lot of fun :)!   First Stop - Beauty Parlor!  We walked a little ways down the street to a lady's house.  The beauty parlor was in one of the rooms in her house.  Jaya had already been to her house that morning to get her hair done, but now it was time for the makeup.  This beauty parlor was interesting because it only had 2 light bulbs in the whole room (and they were the energy saver kind that were dimmer than the regular ones), so it wasn't that bright inside the room.   Here's a pic of Jaya in the chair getting her makeup done.   Notice that her hair is crimped.  They use the crimper on people's hair when it's a special occasion - awesome!!! They put a  bindi  on her head and then the lady painted more and made it super fancy. Here's the finished product (after 1.5 hours)!  She...
