He may spend his time capturing the wildlife on his camera, but when it comes to Diwali, Mike makes sure that his house has a festival feel to it – warm and homely. This year, Mike’s whole family intends to spend Diwali together with a puja followed by dinner.

      Says he, “I have been cooking since I was a student, it’s one activity that always gives me pleasure. I am not too good in making sweets but I definitely make one good vegetarian meal for the family on Diwali. Among sweets, I prefer the ones that are made from as many natural products as possible like milk and coconut. But I don’t like them to be too sweet. I am not too fond of the syrupy variety, I prefer dry ones. I am also not too impressed with sweets made from sugar substitutes that are available in the market because they are never able to satisfy you. I may eat one piece but it has to be wholesome.”
