Today at the VU the women in the card-making section invited me to create designs for the henna (mehndi) cards. I drew on the cards in pencil and one of the women will trace over the outline with henna-- such an honor for me!
If you ever plan to do your laundry using only a bucket, detergent, and your own two hands, I don't suggest mixing your old clothes with your new pair of black Indian pants. I knew my clothes were dirty, but not dirty enough to turn the water pitch black. Don't worry, I removed the pants and the remaining clothes survived. Also, as I rinsed the soap from each garment, all of the novelty of hand-washing my clothes faded away. It's hard work!
