My Easter Sunday started on a bright smiley note with Hazelnut Belgian coffee.
Not that "bitter coffee" that Goan men have as per our "hutton".:=)) After
that bright spot, I went to church and celebrated the greatest feast in the
Roman Catholic calendar.
But even on Easter Sunday, like any other Sunday, my routine followed. It was
a quick review of the Sunday newspaper followed by a browse of the cyber Goan
posts. Then the "honey-do" list of chores. For this Sunday it's painting the
pillars in the balcao on this bright warm spring day.
Not surprisingly the cyber Goan posts has the usual controversies from the
extreme right and extreme left. Knowing the authors, most Goenkars - Hindu and
Catholic have learnt to give the B & B treatment to the sodanchem ayatollahs.
My own reaction was let these two guys stew in their own juices and fatwas.
After two hours of work, Easter meal will be with our ever-so-broadminded Goan
Hindu friends (convent educated), where there will be families of all religions
including Parsees. This is our extended family in the Indian Diaspora. Later
this evening, we will make our way to a dance at Syracuse, sponsored by USABDA
- United States Amateur Ballroom Dancing Association.
Happy Easter to All!
May the Easter Bunny bring you all many new eggs and new beginnings for the
rest of the "Catholic calendar" which starts today.
Kind Regards, GL
