South Asia Festival 2010
Last night, my daughter and I put on our salwar kameez and abandoned her father and his achy back to enjoy ourselves at the South Asia Festival on Gerrard Street between Greenwood and Coxwell. As usual, it featured wonderful music and lively dancing in the background, delicious street food smells spreading all over the street and plenty of activities for families to enjoy. My daughter spent a few minutes pawing through a bin full of bangles to select a dozen for fifty cents. Mango shakes are wonderfully refreshing on a hot summer day. The festival continues today if you still want to check it out.

I watched Avatar with my family on New Year’s Day and highly recommend it. One of my friends described it as a futuristic Pocahontas story that ends well for the natives. He also found it amusing that the substance for which mankind was willing to lay waste to the beautiful moon of Pandora was called unobtainium. Spoilers ahead. Read more »
