Welcome, People!

Hello, and welcome to Hairless with Lice. This being my first day on the web, I would like to welcome you with this post.

Yesterday we went to the Durga Puja with our Indian aunt and uncle and the rest of the family, a annual Indian worship of the goddess Durga in the fall, which is the year's largest Hindu festival of Bengal. we got mendhi (henna) patterns, I got a Peacock on my upper arm, Mom got an abstract pattern on her palm, Lily and Sonal got abstract on the backs of their hands. There was lots of good Indian food to be had, such as puri with potato Bhaji.

Afterward, in the evening we went to Disco Dandia, which is an Indian dance done with a pair of foot-long sticks that two people hit together in different patterns to the the beat the music, which forms an intricate dance. then we went home. (We were all half deaf, the music was really loud.)
