Would you mind sharing your recipe? Th...Hi Miche,<br /><br />Would you mind sharing your recipe? That sounds SO good! My e-mail is right below this com box.<br /><br />Because we follow Christ, we will read verses about light, the Light of the world -- and our kids who can read each read a verse. We use lots of candles on the table, including some homemade diyas (clay lamps that hold tea lights). In India, you'll see strings of white lights hung lengthwise on the sides of buildings (from roof to ground), and elaborate arrangements of candles -- you can google questions about Diwali to find out what they look like. There are lots of other Indian customs you can use or adapt to fit your family's religious beliefs.<br /><br />There's also a children's book I just found online called "Amma, Tell Me About Diwali," which gives some of the Hindu meaning -- but I haven't read it yet. I usually try to check books out at the library first to see if I want to buy them. :o)<br /><br />NancyPeter and Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10329947206142706470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3237348067209954574.post-43183056687717193232012-11-13T22:02:17.530-08:002012-11-13T22:02:17.530-08:00Thanks for sharing!

I will have to try this one too. What are some of the things your family does for Diwali? We went around the table and shared one thing we were thankful for, and then also went around and had each person tell everyone one thing they loved and admired about each member of the family. The boys loved hearing what Will and I said, and then it was so fun to hear what they had to say for us! It was a pretty awesome Diwali for us, and I hope in two years time that I have recipes and celebrations down and can have our daughter here to do it all too! <br /><br />AND I'm so excited your dossier is over there! YAY!

This time, we will have our big meal on Saturday. :o)<br />NancyPeter and Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10329947206142706470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3237348067209954574.post-1965812211188604722012-11-13T07:52:41.864-08:002012-11-13T07:52:41.864-08:00YUMMY!!!
