Thekua (Khajoor)

Thekua/Khajoor – sort of deep fried cookies esp prepared in the Bihar-UP zones..and an integral part of the “Chhat Pooja’ prasaad.

The Mantra to Bliss!

Memories of what is gone.. Plans for a future dawn.. We always manage to miss the music which is here and now on.. And the foolish cycle of false misery goes on and on! But yes.. when one realizes this foolishness.. the remedy begins that very moment bang on! Cheers 🙂
