I have not been counting my blogposts ,since I have only 10 fingers ., my dear friends.
But Blogger informed me that my last post was number 599. so if I have my mathematics right this should be the 600th one.
Times flies by so fast.
I started blogging in April 2007.
Its been like telling my life 's tale
and scattering my wispy thoughts here and there.
I was inspired by fellow blogger and famous author John Cowart
and was blessed with technical assistance and tutorials by very patient and kind Carol-Ann.
I thought it was a good idea to illustrate
I thought it was a good idea to illustrate
my ramblings with photos.
Donetta 's images tugged at my heart
and so did the radiant Ruby photos of sisters
My Dad 's film role Minolta proved quite costly
so my beloved late aunt Sybil very kindly
gifted me money to buy a digital camera.Well then, I set out with a shaky hand.
Since I live like a semi hermit
the cyber world opened new avenues for me to grow, learn
make friends and express myself.
For me blogging has basically been making friends,
connecting and receiving love and affection
more than contributing anything.
God be praised
Thank you my dear Cyberian Comrads for enriching my life
These are apples grown in the Himalayanstates of Himachal Pradesh and Kashmir
There are many more varieties.
Yesterday I made an apple pie .
Since sour cream is not available hereI used home made sweet curd or plain yogurt as a healthy substitute.
I received a packet of very pretty cards and decorationsfrom my friend Penni which I have displayed here.
Penni is having a Pomander Giveaway Contest.
And although I have read about pomanders
I did not bother to find out the real meaning of the word
and conveniently assumed it was
- a scented purse
-a French hairdo
- or a Victorian powder puff.
Penni shows you how to make as pomander.
And just for Timepass as we say in Hinglish,I made kebabs or spicy meat patties.
Here is a newspaper photo of the studentsof a local Technical College having a
social festival.

God bless you all.

Congratulations and I get to be the first to say it.

Dear Amrita,
Congratulations with your first 600.
I will encourage your readers to take a day to read through all of them. You have painted an inspiring, wonderful picture of your homeland, India, of your beloved church and of your family members. I feel I know all of them.
You are modest about your own achievements, no need to be that.
Walk tall, you are giving your country and your church valuable, good PR.
Keep up the good work.
From Felisol

Thanks for every taste of India that you give me! Keep it going! Congratulations!
I really like your header pic. It reminds me of the pics hubby brought back the year before.
Blogging for me is theraputic mostly. But I do enjoy getting to know people from other states and around the world.
Your apple pic looks great. Even did the lattice on top. I don't make pies much because I'm not a good pie maker.
Thank you so much my dear friends.Its your friendship that has kept me going.
God bless you all.
