Thank you CommonFloor & My Sunny Balcony!

Yes, as usual I am not regular on blog space, and as usual here are my excuses... It has been a happening month! Many work related stuff kept me on my toes.. home front is happening  & happy! Visitors, summer vacation, grand parents are making babies happy. The littlest turning three & she starting the school kept us super busy!

Common Floor in association with My Sunny Balcony hosted an event - My Balcony Tales to share balcony moments. I was pleasantly surprised when our tiny little nook won the first prize!

Please go check all the gorgeous, gorgeous balcony moments at My Balcony Tales  @ FB

And guess what our prize was, a working antique His Master's Voice gramophone! We were thrilled beyond words! Now it majestically occupies an all important corner!

What a pleasure it is to hear to old Bengali songs in an antique gramophone. It is a sheer bliss transporting us to re-independence era, I tell you!


Thank you CommonFloor &  My Sunny Balcony!
