A Saree for Madam Grant

Image: Google

Yesterday the Indian men working for Grant brought me a gift. A genuine Indian Saree. I remember wearing a saree to a function when Grant and I were first married. It needed an Indian lady to help me to put it on. I will have to find one in Shinyanga to do this as there are none here in Mwadui.

I still have very erratic Internet (which I hope will be sorted out by mid-April) and thank all who continue to visit my blog and leave comments. I will be visiting you all in the not-too-distant future.

I hope you're all having a wonderful week.

  4. When you put your sari on I hope you will get someone to photograph you. I'm sure it is lovely and that was sweet of them to buy one for you.

  5. Hi Jo, you will look stunning in a sari!Internet problems are so annoying, when you have time to blog and lose the connection.
    I hope it reconnects you soon although mid April sounds so long away.

  6. Oh, what a lovely gift, Jo. I'm looking forward to seeing you wear it.
    We're in California right now, and the weather is much warmer than it was in Alberta. It's wonderful to see flowers and trees blooming.
    Hi to Grant, and love to the cats and yourownself,
