Yesterday some friends came over and we made grapefruit jelly. We had good intentions to document our canning session. But, you know. There were so many of us working this jam session that the entire process was downright leisurely and...well, barely noticeable. Nobody felt like they did much of anything, thus producing some hesitation when it came time to divide up the sealed jars and part ways. Big spotlight on The Babu, who not only bought us a new juicer with more horsepower, but who also juiced two big bags of fruit that was given to us by Damodar Krishna. Thanks, boys! Padi and I peeled. Radz stirred. Pishi measured. Bindu grunted. And Mohini...ate chocolate. I am still adjusting to life with a baby. It's been a long time since I was a baby mama. Here are some pics of our recent life. My daughter loves helping in the kitchen and telling me when Bindu needs milkies. My son has been trying to teach me chess. Bindu is a cute little button. I had my first outdoor diaper change challenge in years and my husband is super wonderful--a bouquet buying, baby wearing, housekeeping pillar of love supporting us all during our Time of Bindu.

So the next picture from this envelope we found is of Srila Prabhupada in our family home in 1975. I titled this as "Spirtual Master" because of how Srila Prabhupada is observing Uttama Sloka Prabhu (former President of ISKCON Toronto).
Really like the famous Srimad Bhagavatam picture on the wall. (Subhavilasa is sitting on the far right and Indresh is the kid next to him). As a note, the chadar Srila Prabhupada sat on as well as the pillow covers, table, lamps, carpet and sofa have all been saved.
Note the vase with flowers Srila Prabhupada is holding in his hands. This flower vase will have relevance on tomorrow's post with the next picture. Spirtual MasterI was born in the darkest ignorance, and my spiritual master opened my eyes with the torch of knowledge. I offer my respectful obeisances unto him.
