Happy Heavenly Birthday, Daddy!

Dear Daddy,

It’s hard to believe this is already your second heavenly birthday. 

Always in our thoughts, forever in our hearts.

Instead of birthday cake, we made your favourite burfi. We love you!

Aum Shanti 🕉🙏🏼🪔😇❤️

Mum's Homework from 1966

My Mum went to Gujarati school in Fox Street, Johannesburg (Marshalltown).


In 1966, she wrote this piece on Dogs! 🐕

How special to discover this gem today. 

Side note:
Mum still has beautiful penmanship. 🥰

My Std 6 History project

This was a project I did for my History class in Std 6 / Grade 8. 🇮🇳 

Just look at that Bibliography! 😅

Hands up all those who remembers and used Encarta for school projects. 🙋🏽‍♀️

Filmare & Showtime were Bollywood magazines that my Dad used to get from Durban. I used them for pics of saris for my project!

Baby Sheetal

Today's find!

A box of memories

Over the years I have let go of PLENTY of things. 

…but today, I found a little box of all these goodies that I collected as a school girl. 😄


Trolls, Diaper Babies, novelty erasers, cases for Nokia 3310 etc..!

It was so much fun finding these that I had to share them on here! I’ve found a few more that I’ll post soon. 🤗💗
