As far as Sundays go, yesterday was pretty epic thanks to MissMalini‘s Braunch 
party (Brunch + Book Launch = Braunch) Aside from making up words like braunch, 
we also had 12 other things that we absolutely loved about yesterday and we
thought it appropriate to list them down for you guys, coz let’s be honest,
