Celebrating this year’s Diwali with this homemade easy dessert…<\/p>\n

Diwali, “the festival of lights” is one of the famous Indian festivals. To me when I think of Diwali, two things come to my mind – firecrackers and sweets!<\/p>\n

I cannot explain how nostalgic I feel right now. I have so many good memories associated with Diwali, especially when it comes to setting off\u00a0firecrackers. I was so good at it. My neighborhood in India used to be highly energetic and enthusiastic during Diwali. We used to set off fire crackers till midnight and this was the only occasion when people never used to complain about the noise and the smoke from all the firecrackers. Not just children but also the elderly let loose and join the fun.<\/p>\n

Another attraction of Diwali is the variety of sweets you could find in sweet stores. In most of the houses they make their own version of sweets.<\/p>\n

For this Diwali, I made an easy Squash Halwa. You just need squash and very few ingredients to make this halwa, yet it would taste great.<\/p>\n

Happy and safe Diwali to all my readers!<\/strong><\/p>\n
