As in any Maharashtrian home we woke up early.Relaxed our body with uthana (fragrant paste of chandan) and a warm bath with Mysore sandal soap.In our new attire we performed pooja and offer neivedhyam to the deity.Neivedhyam for Diwali basically includes different types of pohe and faral (the snacks that is made for Diwali).We enjoyed the snacks and spend our evening by worshipping a temple (where we enjoyed fireworks) and meeting up a few friends.
