The end of Pujo always feels heavy and sad.
So we eat something good and bid Maa farewell and pray for her return and good tidings.
On Bijoya, in my family, we don't eat rice or non-vegetarian grubs. This used to bring me so much joy as a kid. We used to sit eating in bed and eat mishti and luchi.
Tonight I cooked some Kashmiri Dum Aloo and Boondi Kheer (since no rice).
It was a quiet and almost solemn Pujo this year. I hope next year is brighter and better.
Watching an old classic tonight.
My first ever brush with Christie. And still one of my faves.
