Dilli Haat in January

On a chilly winter evening in January one place in Delhi welcomes foodies and shopaholics with open arms. This place is called Dilli Haat. My friends and I decided to go to Dilli Haat one evening last week when the sky was a beautiful shade of blue.



The place was decorated with lights and flags and the breeze ensured that both danced in harmony.


The lanterns and stars gave a rustic touch to the ambiance.

Musicians from Rajasthan kept the visitors entertained while they ate and shopped.


With several stalls of ear-rings I spoilt for choice.

There were several shoe stalls as well which caught my attention.
The knickknacks attracted us the most and we all bought something unique. Lopa bought this keychain.



We left after a round of loud of laughter over a delicious meal.

DIY Project for My Prized Possessions

I have mentioned my love for ear-rings several times on my blog. A conversation with my friend Jessica led me to search near and far for an ideal solution to display my ear-rings. After discussing several ideas with friends and family (yes, I take my ear-rings very seriously), I finally zeroed in on this particular way to arrange my ear-rings.

I bought:
1. A beautiful wrought iron frame for Rs. 350/-
2. Wire-mesh for Rs. 50/-

I went to a iron smith to get the mesh welded into the frame. He took Rs. 80/- for his labour.

Used the remaining wire mesh to cut two rectangles for my ear-screws. I raided my cupboard and found red adhesive tape to cover the edges of the rectangles.

Here is the result of the project. I'm now a proud owner of the best system to arrange ear-rings I've ever seen :D

My Obsession!

I confess I am obsessed :-) Here is my collection of ear-rings. I love each and every one of these. Last evening I counted them and am proud to share that I have 75+ artificial ear-rings. I hope to double the number by the end of this year :D


I thought I'd share some out of the ordinary ones with you.




These beautiful green ones have been gifted by fellow blogger and one of my friends, Deepak. I love to flaunt these as none of my girl friends have similar ones.

Ear-rings, Janpath

A collection of ear-rings on sale at Janpath. These table shops offerings spoil one for choices. Not more than 30 to 40 rupees, for a good bargainer, these ear-rings are a cheap but value-for money buy.
