A Big Thank You and Awards

I was on a blogging break over the Christmas weekend and realised that I have had not one, not two but FOUR lovely ladies nominate me for an award! Also, I crossed 60 followers! I know ppl shout out at 50 or 100, but I am just weird that way 😀

So, I got the Versatile Blogger Award this week and let me tell you about the fab four who gave it to me:

Deepika from Divassence
The first thing I loved about her was the stylish party goer at her banner. The second was the fact she made chocolates! Reading her posts, I love the clarity and simplicity of the content. Head over at Divassence for a host of product reviews and NOTDs

Jyoti from Everything That Matters
She is a gorgeous girl who writes from the heart. Her LOTDs are great and versatile. If you don’t believe me, check out the One Look Two Ways post where she takes the same basic look and makes it work for Indian as well as a Western outfit! She is super talented, I tell you…

Sukanya from Few Unnecessary Stuff
Beautiful is the only word for her. Sukanya has an amazing porcelain skin and a great warm disposition. Her blog has tons of product reviews with the odd food recipe thrown in (Aloo Posto!) She does a lot of skincare reviews and if you are into that, her blog is the place to be

Parul from About Lipsticks and Blushes
New mommy Parul is a woman after my own heart. Reads fantasy fiction, Likes cosmetics and is passing on the love of all things pretty to her daughter. We are peas that sprung from the same pod girl! You’ll find such variety at her blog its amazing… from the mid-range Bourjois to the economical Miss Claire… she has it all and loves them equally.

And now for the award….

1. Thanks the person who nominated me and give them a shout out (Hola!)
2. Pass on the award to 15 bloggers
3. State 7 Random facts about your self

Ok, lets start with the other two things. Shall we?

Random Facts

1. I am a chocoholic. I love them chocolates, the bitter, the better… 
2. I am a Mumbai girl who got married in Delhi and is now living in Kolkata. I’ll just add Chennai to the mix somehow and be the Metro girl!
3. I have been blogging since 2004! My alter ego blogs sporadically, but that blog has been my voice board for 7 years now. I fact, I started writing it in December 2004 so am approaching the seventh anniversary. Needless to say, I love to write.
4.  I care too much about hurting others with what I say or do. So, I avoid confrontations to point of being recluse.
5. I am a word game junkie! Text Twist, Scrabble, Jumle words, word search… I love them all…
6. I love J.K. Rowling. Woman, you are my inspiration!
7. I used to be a prissy miss goody two shoes till college. Then, I got off my high horse and became quite chilled out.

I wish I had more than 15 to give out…. 🙂
