I'm looking forward to celebrating Vishu, the Malyali New Year, with the family. My mother, brother and a few of my cousins have come down from Dubai, so we will all be getting together for the occasion. The preparations for some great food will start this evening.
My favourite thing to eat is Kaalan, a thick yoghurt and coconut chutney. There will also be Olan, which is a coconut milk-based dish made with pumpkin and beans, and payasam for dessert.
Mom will be doing most of the cooking, and who better to be spoilt and pampered by! We have to get up at 4 am to perform certain rituals to ensure that the year ahead will be one of abundance. I guess, in some ways, it's similar to the law of attraction.
