Just Married, Please Excuse by Yadhodhara Lal.

The very talented and funny Yashodhara Lal whose blog I have been following for a long time is out with her first book as well. Congrats Y and wishing you all things wonderful!


If you're one of those people who know that married life can have its hilarious moments, please pay attention to this one:

It's really very, very simple - 

1. You write a post on your blog, describing an incident aboutsomething funny that has happened to you as a part of married life, preferably when you were 'Just Married'. (By 31st August 2012)

2. HarperCollins and I select the 20 best entries and they will be sent copies of my book; and 10 Delhi-based bloggers get to join me and VK Karthika, (Chief Editor of HarperCollins and all round super-cool person) for a leisurely Saturday lunch at the new Mamagoto outlet in Gurgaon for some really great food ( I'm told the Khan Market outlet is never less than packed, and for good reason). Oh, and there'll be some good conversation too :).

Some things to keep in mind to be eligible for this contest: 

1. The Title of your post should be The 'Just Married, Please Excuse' Contest 
2. Please include in your post a link back to Y's post.
3. Please leave a link to your entry in Y's comments section to this post.

5.Note -If you're not married, but still want to participate, you can do it - just tell us about a funnyJust Married story about someone you know!

It's a very mixed-up world where flowers talk, doors run and trees fly! The
goofy text of this mad little bilingual spins on wacky illustrations that
whirl the reader along. Available in 8 language combinations it can spark
off any child's (or adult's) imagination!
Target age- 3-7yrs
Here is a review of the book at Saffron Tree.
You can buy it  online from Tulika and at Flipkart
