Mulshi Dam

One sunny saturday, we decided to go around some place near Pune. Jacob "googled" and Mulshi was top on the list for places to visit within 50kms in and around Pune :) We set drive aiming to see a dam.. we drove and drove, but there was no sight of any Dam.. Then we saw few cars halted and walked down to find this small waterfall and a little stream.. Better than nothing we thought and went into the water and took some Pics..

Chachoo's Special Day

Annabel dear Chachoo has now got engaged! We had a difficult timing explaining what was happening.. We tried to explain, Chachoo will be on the stage with your chachi. We will take photos and u will have to dress like a princess and that u will get lots of Balloons :).

Fruity Sundays

Every Sunday, Jacob comes back from the Shivaji market with a big loot of Fruits.. The variety is amazing.. Mulberries, Strawberries, Leechies, chikku, figs are some of the exotic fruits we have tried.. Then we always have pineapple, apples, pears, papaya, oranges, Mangoes and bananas of various varieties.. Annabel loves to have these fruits.. Leechies and mangoes are her current favourites.

Beating Pune heat!

Its summer here and temperatures are rising! Here is Annabel, having a piece of melon to beat the heat!

Baking again

When ever I am in the kitchen, Annabel also wants to come and help.. One day after seeing some children baking biscuits in TV, she too wanted to make them at home. So we got busy cooking.. She helped me cut the shapes and I placed them in the oven.

Also we baked a chocolate cake recently and she helped me decorate it with yellow sprinkles. She couldnot wait till i clicked a snap, so a piece is missing from the photo below
