This evening I went to the India-US group meeting. We talked about last week's picnic and began plans for the upcoming Diwali festival. I was put in charge of food, which means that I must make the arrangements with the caterer. All of the Indians in the group agreed on one particular restaurant to cater the food and 4 of us went over this evening to talk with the owner about catering the event.
I think the talk went well..of course they were all talking in languages other than English. So I just sat there, smiled and nodded a lot.
Thankfully, they will be paring me with a university student from India for this work..cause I don't speak Punjabi and the caterer doesn't speak English.
Still, it is all a lot of fun.
