Every evening, the Grand Hyatt puts on a coctail hour for its elite/club guests. Part of the deal for me staying there was that I was able to go. Free drinks, free food. You can tell how beautifully it's presented from this photo of the cold part of the food. They also serve two hot dishes daily - one vegetarian and one non-vegetarian. Almost all the food was spicy, except for the beautiful desserts. It was nice to unwind and be treated well at the end of the day. Many times, the food here was more than enough and I didn't eat dinner.

Not Real Quesadillas
I violated my mother's advice again and ordered quesadillas in India. Mistake. They were filled mostly with cilantro. I don't mind cilantro in moderation, but when it's a cilantro salad inside the quesadilla, with little cheese and a bit of tomato - not my thing. These were from the lounge restaurant at the Grand Hyatt, where I stayed while I was in Mumbai.

Long Stitch From India
I found a needlework store by accident while on a walking tour of Colaba. Surprisingly, my guide let me in. He was both interested and confused, as he didn't know people actually did these things for leisure. These are all Indian designs and were about half the price of the same kind of kit in the US.

Shawls
I bought these three shawls in Mumbai. All are soft and pretty, but out of different materials. I'd get them out of packaging and wear them here, but my husband has decided to keep letting the cat into our adjoining closet on his side. I hate cats. And I hate cat fur on things I want to wear. He doesn't get that, so they stay packaged until I can get away from this dreadful house in this dreadful place and enjoy wearing what I want to wear without cat hair.
