Hey folks, been away for a while, no particular reason - just been occupied with some important and some inane things. Pattu hasn't really been in the pink of her health last month. I'm hoping the current bout of cold will be the last for this season and we can cheerfully look forward to Santa's gifts... She wants a pair of Yellow Ladder Slide Shoes and a box of Extra Dark pencils.
She has quite an impressive collection of pencils to fill a museum - that sends me on a trip down memory lane..... where pencils used to be rationed and the life of each pencil was carefully tracked. We used the pencils till the last bit of lead while Pattu abandons pencils when they are just 2 inches short. That just shows that it is time to take stock... maybe she'll get a letter from Santa saying she has too many while lot of other kids have none... not sure if it is too early for that kind of letter... still, I think I should try that...
Btw, anyone who's already visited the Dastakari Haat at Kalakshetra? Planning to catch it this weekend if it doesn't rain
Last but not the least, The Little Theatre is back with their pantomime, RipVan Wrinkle at Museum Theatre between 17th to 21st December. They say it is suitable for ages 2+ to 80, last year's experience tells me it would be better to validate that - just a word of caution.
Now, off I go to catch up on all the blogs I missed...

welcome back, and do give us a detailed report on Dastkari haat at kalakshetra. Love such places where art and culture flourish.
Good to see you back, Uma. Hope Pattu is feeling better now. I am planning to go to the Dastakari Haat this weekend too.
Pencils museum it is! And the events at Harrington Road and Elliots Beach- you mean they are scheduled for Nov'2011?:)
Hope Pattu is all right now Uma. It as been the same in our household too, a tad worse since hubby is also sick. M and N waste pencils/ lose erasers/sharpeners and don't show even a pang of guilt. Should work on it. Letter from the Santa sounds like a great idea - they are older than pattu and can understand better - I hope!
Welcome back !! Missed you and Pattu ...
Hope Pattu's feeling fine now and you have time for more frequent posts :-)
