Bye Alison :(

My sister Alison left yesterday to go back to her home in Californa. We drove to another city to the airport (it was chaper)... Aashini hasn't really fallen in love with the whole "carseat thing" yet :) haha! It was soooo cute! When it was time for Alison to go to her gate we told Aashini that Alison was leaving and to say bye -- Aashini just started crying and waving to Alison - it was so sad and cute!! She really seemed like she knew what was going on! She would look at Alison and wave and cry! She was really sad that Alison was leaving.
Today were some local elections. We went in to vote and Aashini got to vote... well... sort-of :)

It is great that your sister could spend so much time with you. So, where are you? Are you coming to Colorado? I have a really nice place for you to stay.

Ah, that picture of Alison and Aashini makes me want to cry! What a sweet memory that you captured. It's funny the things they can pick up on and understand. It never ceases to amaze me!

That is so sad! It's awesome that you had time with your sister. Sisters are the BEST!!! Aashini should have one. ;)

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!

Funny Things - Random :)

Here's a few random funny things ;) One thing that drives a lot of people crazy is honking! There are things that drive me crazy (like people urinating on the sidewalks - yuck!) but thankfully honking is not one of them because we hear it pretty much 24/7. We saw this poster the other day (below) and thought it was funny... BUT not as funny as the Hindi poster. The Hindi poster pretty much said that 'Honking is bad for your health' - haha ! Horns are actually a pretty necessary part of driving here. You don't really look behind you when you drive (most people either don't use their side mirrors, don't have side mirrors, or just have them folded in). When you drive, you just drive forward and you honk at the person in front of you to let them know that you're there - simple right? Sure, it's a little noisy, but you never have to look behind you :) If you go to that company's website it says: "Have patience at the traffic signals, let the signal t...
