Diwali is a time of festivities and celebrations. Every year, we anticipate the coming of this auspicious event where everybody gets to feel their own kind of happiness. One of the most common parts of festivities is socializing and visiting friends and family members. When the frequency of visits is this common, and it is a festival, you better have something to delight your guests with! Rather than buying sweets like everyone else, why not make them yourself?
There are very few bonds that are as special in the world as shared between a brother and a sister. Regardless of the dynamics, whether the sister is older or younger than the brother, the relationship always results in children who grow up to be considerate and understanding of the other gender because of it. Nowhere in the world is this bond celebrated like it is in India on the occasion of Rakshabandhan. Rakshabandhan, or Rakhi as it is called in short, is a remembrance and appreciation that brothers show towards their sisters.
