Anna Prasannam

Anna Praasanam : This ritualistic ceremony initiates the introduction of solid food for the baby.
Yummy...
Today was Thamizhini's Anna Prasannam, that the first time she would be eating solid foods. The function(?) was done at a temple called "Shiva Vishnu" which is located near to our house. 

We reached temple at 8:45 as we woke Thamizhini bit early compared to other days. We had planned for the "Abishekam" for "Lord Shanmuga" at this temple and it exactly started at 9:15. The plan was to do abisekam and give that prasadam to Thamizhini. But why all these? Because that is the belief that first solid food should be precious and praying to God to bless with good diggestive power, good thoughts and talents.


Hmm... Looks like she will not feed sweet pongal again after going home :-(
After the abisekam and dharshan, we took the prasadam in "Silver Cup". I put her in my lap and fed her with spoon, initialy she was not aware what was that, but once she tasted, she wanted more and more. As it was Sweet Pongal, she liked a lot and did not leave the spoon to go far from her. Look at the video for the precious moment captured.

  6. Yes, She really liked a lot and the whole day she did not like to eat anything. No raagi kanji, no veges. I thought she might be holding that sweet taste in her tongue. :P

    And Thanks a lot for your wishes.
