Hi Renuka,
Thank you very much for the divine post.Brought back the memories of childhood when mother and grandmother would make pongal on wood fire.pongal gets a distinct smoky flavour because of that.Lucky you,got to celebrate pongal in a traditional way.
thats a lovely post renuka beautiful pics too
thanks satya and sagari.Pongal day is a hectic day but at the end happy that our tradition is held intact
Wowowowowow!!!! :D!!
Great work!!!
(was meaning the work you did for Pongal) ;)
great renuka..your pongal snaps took back to my childhood pongal celebrations.

thanks bharathy and lavanya
Hi Renuka,
Lovely pictures. Why do they add banana in those pots? is it by knowing pongal is done because after finished they floated on top. But both looks divine...
cheers
