Sunflowers in Lyman orchard ,Connecticut
















Wandering around flower fields always gives me some kind of solace and serenity. Every year during summer without giving a miss, I visit flower fields especially Sunflowers. Such a no age-bound activity fun and frolic. You rediscover the child in you.  Last year I visited Buttonwood Sunflower field and this year Laymen Orchard Sunflower in Connecticut. Situated in the cascading hills, this sunflower field has many characters. Lines of tall trees with a sea of gorgeous yellow flowers is a fun visit always. The best part is, a portion of their sale is donated to various charities each year. In addition,  you can pick your own fruits. They have seasonal fruits like apples, blueberries, and peaches as well. We love to visit the supermarket too it was filled with fresh produce and baked goodies. 















There are numerous photo opportunities for yourself or with the family. I love the elevated porch from where you can get a view of almost the entire field. Every pathway leads you to wonderful photo opportunities.  If you are looking for an easy fun-filled or simple feel-good day with your kids or just for yourself, I definitely recommend it. My kids enjoyed a lot running around in the field. If you get a chance, do check this out. There is still time to experience the yellow wonder.

My favorite pieces of Assamese Traditional jewelry

My grandmother's thuria, age-old and heirloom jewelry, of course, not part-able         A piece of jewelry echoes a region's rich heritage, aesthetics and sensibilities and Assamese jewelry does not differ from that. A piece of jewelry not just enhances the wearer's beauty but identity as well.       A land of flamboyant rivers engulfed in exotic flora and fauna, birds, musical instruments Assamese jewelry is highly inspired by that. Sharing a few assamese pieces of jewelry from my personal collection.       An Assamese bride's dress up is incomplete without Assamese jewelry. Traditionally Assamese jewelry is purely handmade. The main frame is made out with 24-carat gold and lac is used as a filling material. Stones are studded on the top.  The creatively and meticulously studded stone craftsmanship resembles with pomegranate seeds. The color and texture of the stone are opulent and lurid jus...

Bartaco, West Hartford , Connecticut review

It was a usual February day, the chill felt like tucking in the furry comforter and stay cozy at home. But, the matter of the fact was that it was my birthday  and my family wanted me to take out for dinner. I was reluctant and wanted to stay at home. My little one was after me and I couldn't say no. I had no clue where we were heading for dinner and then here we were at the Bartaco. Vivacious Bartaco instantly took away my winter sluggishness. With a gracious greeting, modern contemporary laid back sitting and a bit of hustle and bustle made me alive in the winter freezing February. The high ceiling, ivory walls, earthy light shades stroked a tropical vibe and the food spoke a lot about Mexico and Latin America. As a sober, I chose housemade pomegranate lemonade and hubby got grapefruit ginger juice. I never had pomegranate lemonade before, I must say it was one of the coolest and refreshing lemonade I have ever had. The tint of lemonade not just took the look but ...
