A little design inspiration
It was a design treat at Alliance Française. An exhibition of Delhi based designers showcasing works in various fields such as architecture, products, graphics, textiles etc.
Here are a few snapshots from the exhibition.

The eat week
With a resolution to do more blogging this year, here's how my past week went by - enjoying a lot more food than expected!
Beginning from the top: Dessert @ Wenger's Deli, Connaught Place - An almost empty Wenger's Bakery at 7 p.m. led us to its Deli for some wonderful mousse. Lunch @ German Bakery (Ajay Guest House),Paharganj - Ceaser Salad, Lemon Chicken and their Moccotrat and cheese cake. Yum!
Another day spent roaming in the streets of Shahpur-jat and Hauz Khaz Village led us to Elma's Bakery, Cakes and Tearoom for a piece of their salted caramel cake and New York cheese cake and before that to Potbelly for some delicious Bihari cuisine.
Postcards from 2012
A happy beautiful new year 2013! :)
A 'lil reminiscence into the wonderful last year that took us on a ride through cities and countrysides!
Gwalior - The former princely state of Madhya Pradesh and the birth place of famous musician Tansen in whose memory a music festival is also held. We were here for a day or two but, it would always remind us of the glorious Gwalior Fort, heavy showers, and bad roads.
Jabalpur - Another laid back city. The impressive Bedaghat waterfall and the marble structures but more memorable for watching Gangs of Wasseypur in a theater where I was the only lady, not only in my group, but also the whole theater :o

Amla - A small lazy town in Madhya Pradesh to sit back and relax. We were greeted by a wonderful monsoon weather that makes you crave for hot coffee/tea all through the day. ;)
Chandigarh - A comfortable Shatabdi ride from Delhi landed us in Chandigarh. The city designed by Le Corbusier did not disappoint! The sprawling rock garden, the famous Sector-17 market and the mouthwatering food...yummm! :)
Kerala is an yearly feature of my travels since its my homeland but 2012 took me to Fort Cochin - an enchanting town with colorful murals, cafes, and delicious sea food. And also seen was Bekal Fort in Kasargod. Many more places to visit every year!
Jodhpur was always a city where we transited through until we got a chance to stay there for a week! :) The grand palace, fort, cafe and restaurants and every nook and corner explored! :)
