First post in eons means it must be important, and what’s more important today than celebrating our 80th year of independence.
Today we’re just another coffee shop, one among a plethora of. No brand, no specials, no influencing (not like we do on any other day). We’re an Indian coffee shop, and despite the never-ending power cuts and cow poo on our street, I’m proud of that.
Ritual would never have existed anywhere else but in Mysuru, Karnataka, India.
Happy Independence Day.
P.S: To the do-gooder who walked in and told me to NOT hang the flag vertically; Part 2, Section 2.2 (vi) of The Flag Code of India, read it. I doubt you’ll bother, so image 3 is for you.
