Thiruneermalai

I traveled almost 15 days looking at this hill temple, enjoying the scenic beauty from far. When i came to know it is Thiruneermalai, i wished to visit the temple before i leave Chennai, this holiday. My wish got granted on my birthday, had a lovely darshan of the Lord. Loved everything about the temple. The location, the Moolavar and utsavar and other presiding deities. A small, simple abode of Vishnu. Since i visited late in the evening, i couldn't get any good snaps of the scenery. This one, was clicked from a highway, far from the temple

D for Deepam (Light)

Deepam, means light. Light that banishes the dark, Light that gives hope, wisdom and courage. Some clicks taken when i decorated my house with these small, yet mighty deepam.

C in my Kitchen

I chose simple to post for C, some spices, seasonings that i use everyday in my kitchen, without which my meal wouldn't be flavorful and aromatic. 

Curry leaves, i add them while tempering and coriander leaves as garnish, both play vital role for that happy aroma that emanates from a Indian Kitchen. 

Cloves and cardamom, cannot imagine my evening tea without them!! Coriander seeds is what gives my curry that kick, that keep people taking about it!!

Thanks to Nature for the abundance and for the knowledge to accept and appreciate them!
