45. Freezing Fridays in January
Greetings to all you lovely people at CFC/FOM! Foggy mornings and freezing nights in Delhi leave me longing for the warmth and colour of the Dooars (North Bengal).
The Dooars, that beautiful green haven which was our home for three decades. As I flit back to the past, I’m also putting the calendar in fast forward to April, that magical time when it’s not too hot or cold.
So dear readers, I invite you to enjoy this little taste of Dooars life with me.
This is my account of a typical April storm from Moraghat Tea Estate in the Dooars. Don’t forget to pick up your cup of chai before you start reading!
Cheers to all of you! Cheers to life! I’ll be back next Friday with another garam cuppa for you. Yeh vaada raha.

Indian Chai Stories
This segment is a result of our fruitful collaboration with Indian Chai Stories, a blog by Gowri Mohanakrishnan, a planter’s wife who’s been writing tea stories for many years and is also an active supporter of Chai for Cancer
Her stories come straight from the tea gardens of India and are best enjoyed with a cup of garam chai.
So go ahead #raiseyourcup #DrinkToACause
