Moonlight Dinner


On the last fullmoon day our ladies club arranged a party at our friend's roof garden.Theme of the gettogether was traditional dress and everyone has to narrate a humourous incident of their life or any joke.
Many of us went in our community traditional wear.I went wearing my 16 yards sary and wore it in such way which our grandmothers used to wear. Organisers had announced that the best dressed lady will get the prize. I lost the prize as I had not worn waistband and arm bands.Many youngsters were looking very beautiful in long plaits which were decorated with lot of flowers. First prize went to an elderly lady who has dressed like a rural woman with dozens of bangles.
Next programme was narrating jokes.Many jokes were very hilarious and I got first prize in it. We had 2 minutes and I told one joke related to everyday life. As I had time I told another self created joke.I like to share it with you.
"I am having super power of understanding mosquito language. But as my husband takes lot of precautions to avoid the entry of them inside our house I do not get the chance to hear their conversation. Today morning while I was boiling milk, I heard someone's voice. To my surprise I saw 2 mosquitoes on the juicer talking. Female mosquito was telling her husband that he had made a big mistake by sucking my blood.As I am a tough lady she had heartburn and acidity when she sucked my blood.And it was so severe that she had to take Digene to get rid of it..She told her hubby that today she has done a very good job by waking up early .She knew that my husband comes to the kitchen to prepare tea before going to his morning walk.She came and drank his blood to her heart's fill.She knew that he is a nice fellow and his blood was sweater than honey.". Soon after I finished my narration of the joke I had a big applause.
I have enclosed my traditional dressed snaps.
We had nice gujarathi meal and we returned home with light hearts.It was very enjoyable evening and as usually we meet in the afternoons this party of late evening was of different experience.It has rejuvenated our party spirit and made us more and more enthusiastic.
