This Diwali celebrate with some of the choicest recipes that we have picked and compiled as Diwali Sweets and Snacks Recipes.
Another year, another Diwali…
At times I feel as if time just flew by. You blink your eyes are you are in the next year. And the fact that this is our 2nd Diwali in our own house, is a little too difficult to believe.
But then that’s what it is. It is “TIME” who has never stopped for anyone and who will never stop for anyone.
It gives you that one chance to do what is right, celebrate, enjoy with your loved ones, and cherish that moment. You lose it and you have lost it forever.
But we mortals have that strange arrogance that we have conquered it all and that we will decide what is to be done and when. Poor souls, we don’t realize the fact that in doing that we lost out on the best time to do it.
We had the lighting, lanterns, etc. ready by the last week itself. We cleaned everything up and did our shopping for Diyas, oils, wicks etc.
And probably because we started preparations a little too early, we are feeling as if the days are long and that time is moving at a snail’s pace. Diwali is taking so long to come. Funny, isn’t it?
Since we are talking about Diyas, let me put a request to all of you.
The next time you go out to buy Diyas and matkas for Diwali, prefer buying it from the roadside vendor instead of going to the Mall or, to a superstore to buy it.
Why?
Because, that way you will make somebody’s Diwali, a happier one.
It’s the sales of those Diyas and matkas that they make that decide whether they can celebrate Diwali. So let’s give them a reason to be happy this Diwali.
Do encourage your near and dear ones as well, to buy the Diyas from these vendors.
Wishing you all a happy Diwali…
Let’s get onto this compilation of recipes for you. We have 23 of the best recipes that can be served as Diwali sweets and snacks, for your guests this Diwali.
