Even spices come in all shapes, shades, colors and sizes!
A feast for the eyes, YES!!!!
Fantastic pics, thank you so much for sharing them. Roy is right, I can smell those pictures too!
I adoredmy visit to Kerala and would love to go back. I only had a week and the previous week had been a very busy wedding, so I needed to relax. I'd love to go to the Cardamon Hills and spend some time among the spices.
