Hi friends,
How have you been doing? I've been flooded with mails from you all. I love to hear from you folks by mail though I receive so many of them that I am unable to reply to each of them personally. So here we go with the festivities coming up soon.

 Ganesh Chaturthi [Aug 27]
Ganesh Chaturthi, celebrated as the birthday of Lord Ganesh is one of the most important festival in Western and Southern India.

Eat Outside Day [Aug 31]
And after you have enjoyed the ladoos & sweets on Ganesh Chaturthi its time to break away from your kitchen and give your taste buds a treat on Eat Outside Day. I'm going to enjoy the day trying out a new Thai food restaurant that's just opened. What's your fave? Be it Chinese, Italian, Mexican or Indian, take the day off with your partner and have a tongue tingling time. And send these Eat Outside Day cards for those who cannot join you.

Onam [Sep 5]
Onam- the harvest festival of Kerala, is one of the most important religious festivals celebrated by Malayalees. Its time when every family in Kerala decks up their homes with 'Rangolis' & 'Pookkalams' or flower carpets. Feasting, fireworks, dances & the famous 'snake boat races' are a hallmark of Onam celebrations. Send these Onam cards to celebrate the harvest festival with pomp.

Teacher's Day [Sep 5]
School days were definitely the best time in my life. Learning from your teachers, getting punished for being naughty in the classroom and a lot more of wonderful memories. So on Teacher's day pay respect to your teachers and send them your heartfelt gratitude with these Teacher's day ecards.

And for all you smart folks, if you have a bright idea in your mind, do pass it on with a Bright Idea Day (Sep 4) ecard and if you know someone who needs a push to complete their tasks, do charge them up with a Do it Day (Sep 6) ecard.
