My First Blogger Award...Yay!

Anything first is always special! So a heart felt thanks to my wonderful blogger friend, Resh @ daily-cuppa for passing on this award for The Versatile Blogger :)

To me blogging is mostly about being creative ~ I always visit other blogs to enjoy reading their write ups and the photos of their finger-licking good, absolutely scrumptious dishes! This whole concept of blogging is indeed amazing; people from different parts of the world, who have never met or known each other, come together to share a common passion - FOOD. I am still a 2 month old 'baby' blogger who is exploring the vast cyber ocean of exciting blogs out there. But from what I have come across so far, these are the amazing blogs I would like to pass on this award to: 


  1. Anjali @ Spice n Sugar Tales - always most encouraging, she has an amazing blog with a great collection of  simple, delicious recipes.
  2. Lisa @ Lisa's Kitchen -  such a fantastic blog with an awesome collection of lip-smacking vegetarian recipes.
  3. Nupur @ UK Rasoi - neat and organized, a great blog with a wonderful collection of recipes and tips.
  4. Pravs @ Simply Spicy - very creative blog, a visual treat with equally appealing recipes.
  5. Sayali @ Treat your Tongue - great collection of  mouthwatering Indian recipes.
  6. Sravs @ Srav's Culinary Concepts - always innovative, her blog is full of recipes with very creative combos.
  7. Torviewtoronto @ Creative with Mom - truly versatile blog with amazing ideas for craft and cooking.

And now the RULES for accepting this award:

  1. Add the versatile blogger award.
  2. Thank the blogger who nominated you in a post and link it back to their blog.
  3. Share 7 completely random pieces of information about yourself.
  4. Include this set of rules.
  5. Forward this award to fellow bloggers and inform them with a comment on each of their blogs.

Well, any happy moment calls for sweets! Here is my treat for you:


Chocolate Dessert Cake
Choffee Rocks
Chocolate Brownie Cream Cheese Sandwich
Layered Banoffee

Okay so here are 7 random things about me:

  1. Me a shopaholic - you can definitely feature me as an icon for the tag 'shop till you drop'!
  2. I am health and beauty conscious :D
  3. Good food, shopping for myself and great music are things that always lift my spirits up.
  4. Hate carbonated drinks of any kind.
  5. I am a lazy cook and sometimes very lousy too.
  6. My hubby dearest and my family mean the world to me.
  7. Addicted to Google - you get info on anything and everything under the sun.
