A house warming picture post

After Diwali I got busy with the house warming preparation and finally the D day arrived. We organized for a Ganapathi Homam on the 31st of October. On the whole the function took place smoothly with out any glitches. 
Take a look at some of the pictures.


We received this beautiful lamp as a gift for the house warming. Check out the cool  flower arrangement around the lamp.


She was the presiding deity of the day



The deity adorned with flowers





Yummy breakfast that was served with hot filter coffee




During the homam Appam, Ashta dravyam and cooked rice were offered as an oblation


       Ashta Dravyam



          Ghee  Appam


                                           Havis- Cooked rice for homam


This was the lunch spread


The Kalash that I carried into the house.



Paruppu Thengai- These cones were filled with manoharam and tasted so good. 


Waiting to be distributed to the guests.

                              Preparations for the Havan

It was a pleasant day with good memories and we had to rush off to attend another engagement party on the same day.
