Pitts & Wits

By Chandrasekar - Page 6

What was that Aruna remembered ?  The dessert !  Yes we completely forgot about that and Sun quickly ran to the freezer to bring the custard out.  Sun was proved to be real "Vetti". (mannu vetti, sedi vetti, pullu vetti, poo vetti, kaai vetti, pazham vetti... indha maathiri niraya vetti :-).  We again assembled at the dining table.  Everyone was given sumptuous amount of delicious custard.    We thanked them for the wonderful dinner and hospitality.  We told them to visit us when they next visit his brother Jegan in Chicago.  Jegan & I worked together briefly in India.  The time was running.  We quickly finished the custard and started to leave.  Niveta got into the car and fell asleep.  It was pitch dark and again I lost the way to hotel despite the clear direction given by Sun.  Finally after one hour we reached our hotel.

Next day, June 11th we got ready at about 10.00am and started our journey back home.  We checked out of the hotel and went to the temple.  We were the only devotees at that time and we had a peaceful dharshan.  The temple canteen offered only puliyodharai and thayir saadham besides bhoondhi and mixture.  We purchased 5 packets of boondhi and 5 packets of mixture.  We started to drive towards west.  The return journey was fast.  We didn't stop frequently.  We stopped for pizza lunch at one of the service plazas.  We returned home at about 7.30 PM.

It was quite a enjoyable journey.  We once again thank Srikanth, Sun and their families.
