It's Badi Diwali, one of our important holidays. We've been working on little clay pots for a while now, and we--that is, me and Parvati and Cousin Darshana, and of course Rohani, Goshal, Desai and Gupta--all thought that our visitors might like to see the festival as well.
So, tonight after lessons, right around dusk, please join us down by the lake. (I'm sure the squid's forgiven us for Saturday by now!) We'll light the candles and Goshal has fireworks to set off. Then we've got some other celebrations for everyone back inside - crackers and the elves have made us a special meal, too. (Darshana's got quite a way with them, or else they're really interested in showing off for our guests. They've never made us a traditional meal on Diwali before!)
holidays,
