Diwali, Christmas and New Year always bring forth happy memories from childhood for me. In this issue, we have tried to capture the essence of all these festivities. It practically overflows with delicious recipes and fun project ideas like lantern making, flower centerpiece, envelope making, ginger bread cookies and lots more. We have tried to make each and every occasion a time to remember with our simple secrets and creative ideas.

On behalf of all of us here at Cooking & More, I wish you all a very joyous and carefree Diwali, Christmas and a wonderful New Year.

A vivre la dolce vita! (Here’s to living the sweet life)
