Well I did it. I got into and out of a saree successfully without coming unravelled. A saree is one piece of material that is draped, there are no zippers or buttons to keep the thing in place. Just an under petticoat skirt that needs to be tied so tight you can barely breath. I have to say I felt completely glamourous in it, and I got a lot of compliments and looks. The cab driver actually told me in his limited English that "Indian culture, saree, THANK YOU!"
So here are some pictures of the event. Enjoy!
My friend Shimul and me
The happy couple and me and M.
Martha, my personal shopper and dear friend
My dear friends and one of the loveliest couples I have ever met, Sreeram and Shimul

Glad to hear that the job is going well and the living arrangements seem better since you moved in with T. I am jealous of the heat but can't believe how HOT it is...I wish the weather would get better here soon...

Shelly you look natural in that Saree, Nanny Lou, really like that one and infact all of them. We both developed colds from the Tour to Ottawa, we are now nursing them with Buckley's Cough Medicine, it taste awful but it works. Uncle Ken and the two girls came over today and stained Nanny Lou's deck, it looks good. Your Dad, Uncle Freddie, and Uncle Willie are coming Friday to put up the Canopy on the deck. The weather prediction tonight is snow flurries YUK!!! I have to take Nanny Lou's flowers in every night to save them from the frost weather we've been having. Well that brings you up todate. How is your boy friend? Do you get to see him once in awhile? Until next time
Adieu
Mr. Fred.
VERY nice pics. You look like you've worn a saree every day of your life - a natural!
