No, I haven't misspelled the word "Holy", although this day is holy for us Hindus.
I rather not get too complex in explaining the festival, so you probably could do your own research here.
The only sad thing....people in India celebrate this event in grandeur, like throwing around colored powder, having bonfires, parties and feasts, while here we eat traditional Maharashtrian sweets like Puran Poli (jaggery filled chapatis; ho hum) and say "Happy Holi!" to our friends and family.
We usually have our Holi celebrations at the temple here, but I'm sure with freaking freezing temps out there, I don't think anyone would like to get sick. And no "Holi" parties or events at other places surprisingly this year.
Anyway, Happy Holi!
