Tonight I went with my colleague Kavitha and her two kids (boy 11, girl 5) to the giant Rasi’s sari shop. Kavitha really knew her way around the fabrics, which helped make my benighted choices a little less benighted, I hope. I dropped somewhat more than I should have but got away with some amazing stuff, some colors that I have only seen in dreams. Sometimes when we are wrapping a present for a kid’s birthday party Lilly will decide that she likes it and we must keep it, and only a lengthy negotiation gets the thing finally into the wrapping. I’m sure the same thing will happen with me when it’s time to give these things away for Christmas. They are spectacular.
