Silk Sarees of Kanchipuram

Kanchi is a sleepy little town 70 KM (about 40 miles?) from Chennai. And close to 75% of its population is dependent on the Silk Saree business.
The Kanchipuram Silk Saree is hand-woven with dyed silk yarn with interleaved designs made with 'Jari' - a Silk thread twisted with a thin Silver wire and then gilded with pure Gold. Read more from this site: http://www.geocities.com/~kanchipuram/tips.html#Silk Sarees

Wedding Invitation

Chithu's been asking me to write a 'nice' invitation copy. I think that it shouldn't be arhaic or formal. She differs. So, I am forced to write copy like 'We solicit your esteemed presence on the occasion yada yada yada grace the occasion yada yada yada' Yikes! Any ideas people?

Building the home

With only two months to go for my wedding, I am on a buying-spree. I got a TV (Samsung Plano) and last evening bought a Fridge (240 Litres, Electrolux-Kelvinator. DOuble-door). I need to buy some furniture too and oh shit I have to look for an apartment on rent... bye!
