Yesterday, the northern parts of India celebrated the festival of Teej. It’s a day when women dress up in bright colors and finery, apply henna on their hands, sing and dance with other women. The other tradition of Teej is that women get together to enjoy on swings! The idea is to swing in an open area or garden, and sing as it rains (since this is the monsoon season in North India and supposed to rain each day!)

Obviously, above is the more traditional way of celebrating Teej. All these traditions still must be followed in villages and possibly smaller towns and traditional families. For urban working women, I guess the best bet is getting one of these at our homes 😉
