The weekend song!

Have a great weekend everyone! I'll be entertaining some guests tomorrow and feeding them some good old fashioned South Indian soul food - Masala Dosas, Chutney and Sambar for lunch.....
followed by Kheer, (rice pudding with flecks of saffron and slivered almonds) for dessert!
That should put us all in a pretty soporific state, so to revive us, some South Indian filter coffee, or as we say "kaapi"!
Then if I have any energy left and the carb bombs haven't killed me yet, I may get on with my packing, printing, gift wrapping, note making, to-do list checking off...and then hit the treadmill, maybe.....

For those of you who need some inspiration to just take a break and let the housework be, here it is:

Tomorrow Can Wait/The Weekend Song by Anita Atina

Languid repose
Piled up chores
Everything’s waiting
For my cheery doze
The appointments, the laundry
The house is in a mess
Don’t want fresh clothes
Undressed is best
When the music curls up slowly
In a drowsy haze
Oh its so nice to lie down
Under the sun’s warm gaze
The rushing and the buzzing
For the week is done
And finally its the weekend
To soak up the sun!

Great post, Kamini. Love that lotus pond. It reminds me of my village. I am having a house guest from Hyderabad this weekend. Planning to serve Hyderabadi biryani on Saturday and Masala dosa on Sunday. Have a great weekend!
