Depawali the festival of light is just around the cornor. In Nepal and India, its like christmas, each house would be decoreted with lights.

I'm planning to organize "Bhai Tika" or the vive of the festival in Los Angeles.
Some have commited in making special bread (cell roti). Since its going to be toally fun and good time basis.. those interested in expereincing brotherhood and sisterhood bond thing.. we could put tika (red stuffs on forhead) and offering of fruits and sweets.

Those interested could e-mail me on info@tibetnepalhouse.com or contact the restaurant.
