Rain has got to be one of my favorite things and after the last few days we've had in Karachi, it was definitely a welcome change! Had it rained on Eid and not been disgustingly hot and humid...probably would have made Eid much more enjoyable, but I'll take what I can get! Since we've finally been lucky enough to get some rain this part of town, I thought it's only appropriate to talk about my favorite things to do/eat in the rain.
Rain just makes you feel so relaxed and calm and if you add in a little thunder and lightening, it's just the perfect storm! Not to mention how gorgeous the sky looks when it rains while you're in the plane! Nothing beats sitting outside and reading a book while watching the rain...obviously, don't sit in the rain. But since baby has made her arrival, you can see how it's kind of hard to sit down with a good book and some nice candles during the day! Another thing I love to do is go on long drives and hear what I call "rain songs". Believe it or not, I legit have a playlist that is called that and those are just my favorite songs to hear while it's raining. And of course, who doesn't love a good cup of coffee and dessert in the rain?! Chai lovers, that's who. Luckily I'm not a chai lover...at all therefore I can still enjoy coffee in the rain. Paan in the rain is also a favorite, yes I've picked up some Karachi-ite habits! Although, to be fair I can have paan any day, anytime! The Raja Sahab from PIDC is delish! When it's not hardcore raining and just drizzling, I love to take baby out for a walk...everything just looks so pretty!
I've heard another favorite thing for people to eat during the rain is pakoras! I personally don't think of pakoras when I think of rain, but each to their own! Can't deny though, I've actually come across so many people that hate the rain, I didn't know they existed! What kind of things do you guys like to do when it rains?!
