Me, in a sari!

The Ussie is me with City of Kitchener councillors Paul Singh, Ayo Owodunni, and Mayor Berry Vrbanovic -- awesome people supporting and embracing the community :) and the posed shot is me and Berry in front of the pookalam.

So, yesterday the local Malayali Association had their Onam celebrations (25th Anniversary!) and I was an invited guest! The last time I wore a sari was 20 yrs ago. Thankfully the women's aux. got me ready. So, yes. Photographic proof in the next post in the thread.

@cardamomaddict You look lovely in the sari.
I suppose they don't have pockets though?

@cardamomaddict

You look lovely! 😊

@KimberlyN Thank you!

I've gotten several "you should wear those more often" from friends and family....which means I'll need a team of dressers. I can pay in cake.

@cardamomaddict

I’m sure it takes skills + practice to wrap a sari, so I can believe it. I’ve always found them to be quite beautiful.
