My room at the gloriously kitschy but swank Mayfair Lagoon overlooks the actual lagoon and a little red boat. About to speak at the Odisha Lit Fest in a few hours about whether English is an Indian language. You already know what I think. #traveldiary #bhubaneswar #OLF2016

Our little wanderer has become a home body again. Olga and I have long conversations where we trill and meow at each other. Um. That's totally normal right? #catsagram #catlady #olgadapolga

In all the reports about pollution being over acceptable limits, I was very pleased to see this little guy in my terrace garden this morning. This is the lemon pansy (I have a butterfly book which is invaluable to identifying all of them), a common species found across India up to 2000 metres in the Himalayas. Also pretty colours against the green of the tree and the yellow of the wall. #delhidiary #butterfliesofindia

Dinner party season! Malayali food from a new place we were trying, old friends and new and the age old party tradition of cleaning up a broken glass of wine captured for posterity. #delhidiary

Candles lit briefly before I go out tonight, my first Diwali in our new home. I love the tradition of welcoming in wealth and good fortune just by lighting some lamps and even though I have to blow them all out before I leave the house, I think the message has been sent. Happy Diwali! I hope you have loads of good luck this coming year too. #delhidiary #coveringallmybases

Oh hey happy anniversary city of my birth. (sorta? I've been here since I was 3 weeks old) And on that note, maybe it's time I was here less often. Delhi, I love you and I hate you and I have all the feels for you. At least you're never boring? #delhidiary

Long time no baked goods! Since the weather is perfect for warm sweet things, I made a loaf of banana bread, using the Joy Of Cooking recipe, but swapping out white flour for wholewheat and adding a little cinnamon. It's perfect. Moist (which is such a horrid word when used for anything except cake) and not too sweet. #domesticgoddess #baking
