That is Pune in the monsoon.
That was our garden during a lull earlier this afternoon in the rain.
The monsoon is always welcomed with hot bajjis. To welcome the monsoon, earlier this afternoon, my Daughter In Love prepared hot bajjis of onion, potato and caraway leaves from our garden.
BLISS.
deep fried goodness – yum
I love a good thunderstorm – always have. As a kid in Colorado I used to lay on my back in the front yard and look up at the sky as it rained – and as soon as the storm ended it was boats in the gutter for me
I sat in our veranda and watched the rain and listened to the thunder for quite a while yesterday. Being the first rain of the season, it was a mind blowing experience. As a young lad, I too have floated paper boats in running rainwater!
Frankly I’d kill for those bajiis. Yum. Can’t get them out here but in Toronto I had a fave Indian place that offered them.
Monsoon. Live the sound of the word always.

WWW, you are most welcome to my humble abode to partake in bajjis that we will specially make for you. And if you do that in the monsoon, there will be other goodies on order too.
God that makes me homesick, other than my siblings, and their kids, I miss the South Indian food the most.
Catch a flight and come over!
If anything would make you feel better, it would be hot bajjis! I may be able to find them in my favorite Indian restaurant in this city.
Have fun. If they don’t have it on their menu, request the chef to make it specially for you. He will normally oblige!
you KNOW how I feel about rain and thunderstorms rummy.
this post is the best!
enjoy for me please. xo

As I write this, it is pouring and I have just posted a photograph on my blog. The DIL is just about to go to the kitchen again!
sounds delightful all round….
Believe me, it is and also a big relief.
What a wonderful way to celebrate rain. And your garden looks lovely. Your monsoon begins at the time that rain would look really good here. We had a thunderstorm a few days ago, lost our lights for a few hours, and had very little rain.
Next time….

Thank you. The monsoon has now intensified and it is more or less permanently overcast with frequent drizzles or showers. It is rare to see the sun out but we love it. Our lakes are getting filled, the rivers are in spate and ground water levels are rising.
Insuring a good future…
