It's Holi, a big spring holiday in South Asia. Although technically a Hindu celebration, things get pretty mixed up in S. Asia and you have people of all religions celebrating each other's special days. One of the lovely things about the culture, when they're not fighting about religion, which unfortunately also happens. Here's some information from Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holi
I love my adopted city of San Francisco. I've lived here since 1998. When I'm not working, I love going out to hear live music, staying home to read a book (or three!) running, making dinner for friends and yoga. Guilty pleasures: America's Next Top Model, a ballpark hotdog with sauerkraut and drinking wine in my pajamas.
