#debsaristories I am back without a gap. Fully in namma madras mode. It's a silk cotton saree with jasmine flowers to adorn my hair. What is special about our des? Listen then.. me and amma were walking our road towards the temple to get flowers and then a house help from another household stepped out and said "kannu... (love).. your blouse back is very beautiful, but it seems to overturn. Stop for a min so I can fix it" I stopped and she out her safety pin from her thali chain (mangalsutra). Amma was nervous.. she dint want that unwanted attention on the road.. but I was like who cares. I gave that lady her own time to make sure she felt I looked good and then moved on.
