Send them about two weeks ahead, because many Tamil families travel to their native towns for the harvest festival. Relatives deciding between homes appreciate early notice. A reminder the day before, mentioning the boiling time, helps guests arrive for the main moment.
Guests mark attending, not attending or maybe and include family members as plus-ones. Ocvite updates the count in real time, so you know how many banana leaves to set out and how much sakkarai pongal, venn pongal, vadai and payasam to prepare.
Bhogi clears out old things, often with a bonfire. Thai Pongal is the main day, when rice and milk are boiled in a new pot until it overflows as an offering to the Sun. Mattu Pongal honours cattle, and Kaanum Pongal is for visiting relatives and outings.
