Mehndi

Can you guess whose hands these are? They are mine! Bua put mehndi on my hands. If you don't know what mehndi is--well, it's an Indian thing, a beauty treatment done for weddings and stuff. I wasn't getting married, of course, but my Bua did it anyway.

And how did it look after you scrubbed the mehendi off your hands? The colour, I mean? You must show us how the half-paisleys turned out Ila. Sumana

hey ila you know what, your little sister aiza also loves mehndi... she keeps wanting to put it on but then insists on washing it off straight away.
i was showing her your pictures and she blew a kiss to her apa - hope you got it :)

Sumana, the mehndi has faded a bit because Bua put it on for my birthday.

Saima khala, many kisses, actually more than many, for little Aiza. Aiza is a lovely sister.
