If you're from the area, you surely know about it or have seen the zombie like people walking around town every year with all their brightly colored and chalk infested clothing and hair.
I have honestly never had a desire to go, not sure why, but perhaps the idea of just getting that chalky didn't sound appealing or that it seemed like the young college scene was another turn off.
Well a few of us friends went and we were all first timers at this festival. It was fun to see everyone covered in bright colors, throw chalk at one another and to listen to the interesting music played.
I will say it was fun, but it was a one time event for me--showering twice in a row to get chalk out of my hair is where I draw the line.
Coincidentally on Sunday my family was having a bit of an Indian feast, my brother wanted to try and make some delicious chicken tikka masala. It was so so good. We feasted on tikka masala, homemade naan and mango lassi's.
I was stuffed happy.
Oh and I made the samoa bars--yep amazing as well.
It was a fun weekend that truly felt themed, but was in no way planned that way.
Indian food sounds amazing!!! I would be down for a repeat feast this summer.....
ReplyDeleteFrancesca we will most definately do a repeat feast this summer!
ReplyDeleteYa know I've been to that festival before and have never once been covered in chalk. It is either a new thing, or else I didn't stick around long enough to find out about it. Not disappointed about that one.
ReplyDeleteThat food looks delicious though--I love love Indian food.
