Sambu Sithi's Wedding Day 51

We hadn't planned this ; frankly,I didn't even know that Tuesday last was Sithi's wedding day,until her daughter Vasanthi told us, during our recent Pollachi visit. That was when we thought of celebrating. Sithi-sithappa, have been married for five decades plus.
Shopping for a cake, Lakshmi found it at Kannan Departmental Store. We asked the shop assistant to inscribe this message - Sithi-Sithappa, Wedding Day 51. Raghav and Balaji persuaded grandma to cut the cake, and fed her a piece. So did Sambu Sithi's daughter-in-law Jayashri, and daughter Vasanthi. Son Babu captured the scene on his cell-camera.
Sitthappa - Padmanabhan - was not in town. He had a date with grandson Manikantan in Trichy. An engineer with Reliance Group in Bathinda, Manikandan was on official visit to Trichy, and he wanted his mother and grandpa to meet him there. We wanted Sithi to cut the cake, even though her husband wasn't in town. She hadn't done this ever before. Padmanabha Sitthappa had a cake-cutting birthday last year, his first in 78 years, at Sharjah residence of his eldest grandson Karthik.
Sithi who didn't go with him to Dubai missed out on the cake-cutting. So we thought of making her wedding day a cake-cutting affair.
