Varalakshmi Vratam

Hello All,
Hope you all had a great pooja on friday. Well, my pooja was great. Right from the Goddess to the food items everything turned out to be pretty well. Again this time, I didn't make that many food items as I was not keeping that well whole of last week and I was just recovering by this time. But for the pooja, it went of pretty good.
I love the beginning of Sravanamasam( season) as from the start of this season, we are flooded with whole lot of festivals till the year end. Every year, I try my level best to improvise on the way the festival is done, try to make different varieties each time and this is what keeps me excited most of the time. I feel very nostalgic at times, remembering the good (G)olden days I spent back home celebrating all these festivals with my family. I miss all the fun. But then, I try to carry those customs and traditions with me wherever I go. With the kind of travelling we do, thanks to God, (touch wood) there was never a year I missed doing these festivals. That is one thing, I am very happy about.
On this note, I will take a break for today and I will post my pooja pics and procedure very soon. Till then, njoy reading this post. Take care buddies.
