Every sari has a story.

​

Avani is having so much fun playing with her mother's saris, so much fun, it's turned into a big mess! When her mom comes in, Avani expects a scolding, but instead, sits down and tells her about the memories associated with each sari. Where it came from, what it was worn for, and, in the case of one very special sari, the memories that were passed down from her parents and grandparents.  

On the eve of Diwali, the jalebis, chum chums and gulab jamuns are piled high! 

But who is the surprise guest that shows up? And where, oh where, are the mithai?
