santani.. the female santa

had quite a blast at x-mas reception at office today where i went in dressed as a female santa--santa'ni'.
these are pictures after i got home.. and before i was deflated to my normal size by
santani's naughty little helper....

the sari is trimmed with surgical cotton (yup, stitched 16 rolls of cotton all over).. even my pullover has cotton trimmings!!!.. wore nepali velvet slippers. i also had a santa cap while in office





















couldn't find white hair.. so santani
had to be satisfied being blond. that's a lot of tippex i had to apply on my eyebrows to make it go somewhat with the hair


this is how i came down the fire escape to the meeting room filled with unicef staff. ringing the bell.. sprinkling punched paper snow.. with a jute bag filled with gifts... like a tiny toy helicopter for the representative to get on to if trapped in a kathmandu traffic jam.... etc... and finally before i left i told everyone that i had a call from prachanda saying he wanted me to come to the SPA meeting. i showed the staff the perfect present i had for them.. a tube of super glue.. before ordering my sleigh to take me to baluwatar!














two balloons.. that did the trick...






















.....to make a seductress santani
















and then came the little helper with evil in her eyes and a dangerous pin in her hands















and soon santani was downsized and deflated.... with two bursts of air.. she was back being an ordinary mortal again....
