Diwali
Happy Diwali! Today is Diwali, Diwali is a time of year to celebrate the Hindi gods Vishnu and Lakshmi. These are the Hindu supreme gods they are like Jesus Christ, and the Budha. Diwali is a time to share love and sweets, some Hindi sweets are Ladu, gulamjamun, and Barfi. All Hindi sweets are vegetarian no egg was added these sweets are made my hand. This year my mom bought Barfi and some Giant Ladus. But we still made crunchy Ladus which taste yummy. On Diwali we offer food to the god how that works is we put a type of fruit in front of the gods statue and the soul of the fruit goes to the god. Once Diwali is over we can eat the rest of the food we offered. My favourite Indian food is Giant Ladus because they taste like they have been covered in honey. Something also about Diwali that makes it special is the fireworks. Fireworks make Diwalli stand out a part of that is Rangoli patterns Rangoli is colourful circles that are layered in different colours.

ReplyDeleteSo much culture! Thank you for writing so much detail- I am learning so much about Diwali Day from reading this week's blog posts. Which fruit do you offer? How long does the offered food remain before you can eat it? Would love someone ot teach us Rangoli!
