    Deepavali is almost here and no festival is complete without good food and family right? I am basking in all the love from family and it cant get any better than this. We have been preparing a lot of sweets and snacks for Diwali. Murukku, Thattai, Adhirasam/Ariselu, Otta Vadai, Acchu Murukku, Rava Laddu, Gulab Jamun and many more. More than making these sweets/snacks and savoring them, the true happiness lies in distributing them to our friends and neighbors. I also act as a messenger delivering amma's snacks at in-laws and vice versa. New clothes, rangolis, mehendi sessions, movies, TV shows, fun times with family, crackers at night - Diwali is my favorite festival of the year! 🙂

    To make it more special, I am doing a roundup of all the Diwali sweet/snack recipes here. Do prepare these delicacies and enjoy it with your loved ones this festive season!

      Kalakara Chandru! 🙂 very happy deepavali! I am probably going to stick to a simple basundi and outsource the savory items. This is a great list and very inspiring! 🙂
