Sweetest Shruti presented me the Honest Scrap award and tagged me with the Honest tag.

It says..“This award is bestowed upon a fellow blogger whose blog’s content or design is, in the giver’s opinion, brilliant.”

“When accepting this auspicious award, you must write a post bragging about it, including the name of the misguided soul who thinks you deserve such acclaim, and link back to the said person so everyone knows she/he is real. Choose a minimum of seven (7) blogs that you find brilliant in content or design. Or improvise by including bloggers who have no idea who you are because you don’t have seven friends. Show the seven random victims’ names and links and leave a harassing comment informing them that they were prized with Honest Weblog. Well, there’s no prize, but they can keep the nifty icon. List at least ten (10) honest things about yourself. Then pass it on!”

A biiiig thank you and here i go :D

1. I thank heaven, i am not a Chinese. Now don't raise your eyebrows, i have no issues with Chinese people. Infact i get along with them really well.
Thing is, i am an awful cook when it comes to Chinese cooking . Even S~ doesn't want to eat :\ (My husband doesn't have taste buds. He loves everything i make.) But i love their food so much, i try it at least once in a month. Everytime i make, it results in a disaster( will tell you someday my kung-pao chicken story *sob sob*), i go in kopbhavan for a day and then everything becomes normal.
But just think what would i have done if i were a Chinese ?

2. I am a big fan of Harry potter books. (when i say big, i mean biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiig). I had made my chota sa record by finishing Book-7 in less than 24 hrs. *ahem*
Also, My heart broke when i learnt that Albus Dumbledore is gay. Vaise, i am very fond of Sirius Black, Ron and Weasley-twins as well :D

3. When it is about food, i am thet Ganwaar. I mean, i don't have much affinity for Chocolates, cakes or ice-creams, but i can do anything for a garmagaram bhutta (corn), hara chana or a piece of ganna(sugarcane).

4. In real world, i am trapped in this super-sweet image(which i badly want to come out of. Thats why this blog was born. HAHAHAHA *evil grin*). See, i am not at all sweet-weet, it is just that I am a poor judge. I find it difficult to say a bad-thing bad on somebody's face(or his/her back unless the person i am talking to is very-very close to me) and it is very hard for me to say No.

5. I have no control on my emotions. I laugh like a maniac when i find something amusing and i need (almost) no reason to shed some tears. In other words, i am a drama queen.

6. Languages are not my friends. I know English, Hindi and Marathi, i suck in all three :\ .

7. We two (real) sisters are married to two (real) brothers...:)

8. I like writing poems but i have no interest in poetry. I hardly read poems written by someone else. I know, i am weird..

9. I never carry my cell-phone when i am with S~ (and never forget when i am without S~). I have gotten infinite scoldings because of this annoying habit..lekin hum thodi sudharenge ;) .

10. I believe, i am very lucky!

OK doston, ho gaya :) ..Now i tag all you beautiful ppl, who are reading this...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I love Marathi food and relish Marathi kadhi very very much but since i have had this little piece from heaven , my loyalties have been temporarily err..shifted.
Do try it out. I am sure, you will love it!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And i am going Home, Monday night.........yep keeping fingers crossed :) .
Bangalore, Indore and Gwalior will see me and Shreyu for next few weeks :)

Well...well, this time also i am planning to fly alone with Shreyu. So if there is any Veer-Maata pratiyogita going on..do nominate my name :)

Ha! Just realized that i am about to finish my post and haven't mentioned Shreyu much. But i am really sleepy now so, Here is pic of my lal & his Veer Maata (few months old pic but see there is a reason why i prefer to be behind the camera :\ )

Me : Shreyu, what is this? (pointing to 'A')

Shreyu : Aaaaaaaa

Me : Good job! How about this ? (Pointing to 'B')

Shreyu : Beeeeeeeeeee

Me : Ok, this one? (pointing to 'C')

Shreyu : Moooooooooo *with super confidence*

Me : No baby it is not a Moon it is C.

Shreyu: No! MooMooMooMooMooMooMoo *jumping up and down*

Hmm..To gaddi abhi Moo pe atak gayi hai!

No problem son, i will wait till you are ready for 'C' :)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On 9/11 i got a call from a number which gave me goose bumps. A person in a thick-voice asked me about any emergency i was in and if everything all right? When i told him, everything is fine, he got bit irritated and told not to call the number unnecessarily.

Well, Earlier Shreyu was playing with my phone and i guess, he had accidentally dialed 911 (on 9/11) :P.

My two yogis this morning :D

Why D doesn't blog that often?

O well! She has a little monkey, who wants to play soccer with anything and everything spherical, practices high-jumps and long-jumps all day and according to his Mom, must be Tarzan in previous birth. He also doesn't share mommy's taste so when not busy in figuring how a faucet works, loves to redecorate entire apartment!
Oh but did i tell you, she loves being his Mommy?

Well, no wonder, D is still struggling to reach her pre-pregnancy weight. She is 5 pounds lesser than earlier . *ahem* :D

It took 'only' 1 hr to clean the mess which was caused few seconds after this picture was taken. My kid was too fast for me...or maybe i am getting older!


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And i am done with Shreyu's bedroom. Total money spend - $10. The kind of banjara lifestyle we are living, i didn't want to spend too much on it.
His eyes sparkled when he saw it first and now he wants to show it to everyone who comes to visit so i am assuming, he likes it :) .
