One of the biggest challenge while re-arranging a house is not re-organizing the furniture. But re-arranging the kitchen. The typical south India kitchen is full of vessels big and small. Each utensil has a purpose. Some of them who are post their retirement age act as – Multi purpose storage vessels.

At the time of re-arranging, discarding these broken utensils becomes a challenge. Hence, these utensils are like heritage sites – a reminder of the elaborate dishes we used to cook when we had the luxury of time and resources – along with a huge joint family where fanning and feeding was a festivity in itself.

So these vessels are maintained and preserved for posterity.
