Baithak and Beyond

A quintessential Baithak with a special flavour: this was us celebrating World Book Day Sunday, 19th April 2026, at Empress Garden.
From fresh homemade cookies to cakes and cupcakes and cookies and biscuits and chips and sticks and so much more. It was a feast indeed!
Our Baithak Potluck Picnic was followed by our Mystery Book Exchange -- lovely picks by our members for each other, you could almost taste the excitement for literary surprise in the air.
From our Exchange we moved towards our special activity -- making bookmarks for each other. Creativity out, focus locked in, Baithak members came up with some truly remarkable designs and quotes fit for a reader. Again, the bookmarks were exchanged with the other side facing down, a surprise once again!

Thank you to everyone who participated on a beautiful Sunday morning and made it even more beautiful with their presence. See you next time!
