Above: The Hindu temple near my house. Small, but has a resident priest.
Above: Children eating “sambar”: chick pea and daal (lentils) with vegetables poured over a bed or rice. Note that we are all barefoot. No shoes permitted inside religious buildings here.
Above: Eating and serving en masse. I haven’t needed to sit “Indian style” in a long time. I’m out of practice.
Above: Women roll “chapati” before it is fried and served (essentially a thick tortilla).
Above and below: they insist that I take a crack at rolling some chapati myself.





You’re being a very good sport!
