This year, in the annual Great Gardens Contest conducted by the St. Louis Post Dispatch for its readership area, Banti and I were awarded the top prize in the amateur home gardens category for our tall-grass prairie and ornamental garden. It is a popular contest and is supported by most of the major nurseries, a local TV station and the Missouri Botanical Gardens, a highly regarded, internationally known institution. The top prize also came with merchandise coupons for $1,000 from various businesses involved with gardening and a laser-cut iron plaque by a local St. Louis artist.

“In a captivating work of narrative nonfiction, journalist S. Mitra Kalita traces the evolution of the suburb from a destination for new arrivals to a launching pad for them. She focuses on three waves of immigration in the post Civil Rights era through the stories of three families: theKotharis, Patels and Sarmas.

The menu was decided in consultation with Mrs. Anima Goswami and the Bhuyans. Everyone decided to bring in his or her favorite Assamese delicacy to make the lunch an authentic Assamese one.
People started showing up at the venue around 11:00 AM. Mr and Mrs Bhuyan were cordially received each of them with hot chah and larupitha. The festive mood was pleasantly colored by the natural beauty of spring in Colorado.
