Come to think of it Genda phool is a flower in which each petal is a flower in itself, and when all get together it makes a bigger flower... shayad isiliye ..sasural ko genda phool kaha gaya hai..
Just back from Sasural…I have realized that I actually loved the trip, wanted to stay more.
Thoroughly pampered, fed well - added a few inches to my girth and about a couple of kgs in about 4 days.
All days were pleasant, sunny and warm – not HOT!... Set amongst greenery, every morning I could hear koel cooing, birds chirping and rooster going like one alarm. Breakfasts were spread of traditional home-made food and lunches were elaborate with bhujiyaas, saags, and daal with raita and salad- unlike our twin dabba affair of roti+sabzi during dreadful work weeks!! Dinners were even better with at least one non vegetarian item….
No controversial things were talked about; whoever questioned our DINKS status was replied aptly!
I was happy...all in all an antithesis of trip I had thought about.
Nonetheless, a priceless gift from elders!
I am forced to think what my mother used to tell me when I got married – “Apnana seekho… sabhi apne lagenge, Dooriyaan badhane ka koi ant nahi”
Thanks for the lesson MA! Love you always….
Genda Phool??... bring it on…want some more..
