Awards, Part of Wordpress family award, Versatile Blogger Award, Wonderful Team Member Readership Award, Writing Process Blog Tour
It always motivates us when some one recognizes us. Though I am just a 4 months old blogger have got introduced to many more bloggers. They read through my work and appreciate me, some fellow bloggers give me good suggestions. I thoroughly enjoy this blogging. I enjoy reading each one of your blog. To be frank I don’t get into Facebook as much as I wait for my fellow bloggers recipes 😀 these days. Thank you everyone.
This is going to be a little longer post 🙂 Lots of award mention on the way.
Ahila @ A Taste of Sri Lankan Cuisine had nominated me for the WordPress Family Award. She brings in variety of Sri Lankan food and me as well being a Tamilian extremely enjoy the songs that she brings up in every post. And to my surprise I have the same taste as her’s in the song selection 🙂 Got to know her through the Fiesta Friday and I enjoy all her post. Thank you very much Ahila for the nomination.
My nomination for this award are
- Lori @ Creating beauty in the kitchen
- Chitra @ Chitra’s Healthy Kitchen
- Charanya @ Yes! I’m Vegan
- Vidya @ Traditionally Modern Food
- Aiswarya @ My Kitchen Moments
- Tina @ My Masala Life
Thanks a lot Ahila for this nomination 🙂
Writing Process Blog Tour
Vidya @ Traditionally Modern Food invited me to participate in the Writing Process Blog Tour. Vidya’s blog as her blog name suggest is totally a traditionally modern food blog. I really admire her patience in preparing her recipes and way of writing her posts. She is one of my regular readers and religiously gives comment, very thankful to her. Thanks Vidya for this opportunity.
A Blog Tour basically is a way to help your readers understand your view on the blog. The blogger who invites you to the writing process answers 3 questions about their blog and asks you to do the same. The cycle continues.
1. What am I working on?
I always believe that everyday is a learning process. I learn from the mistakes that I make and this is one more quotation(tuned) I like ” Practice and mistakes molds a person” .Till few days back I had no idea of baking and now I am learning it slowly. Food photography is totally new to me again starting to learn this. Refine my blog ways of writing posts.
2. How does my work differ from others of its genre?
Everyone is unique in their own ways. I started this blog just for time pass which has totally changed now. I have taken it seriously and I am loving it. To give away some points that I work on differently is to get healthy recipes. I try to get the health benefits of the ingredients that I use in my recipe. I add up my personal touch why I love that recipe, add my chit chats 🙂 I try to build any recipe from scratch if possible, with the available raw materials. For any traditional recipe that I give I always try not loose its originality just by substituting some other healthy item (if the recipes demands to change for the health benefits).
3. How does your writing process work?
Few recipes are planned , some of them are on the go when I prepare. If I start planning I will first sort out the ingredients write it down. Then assemble them get it pictured. Then I start picturing every step possible. Once I end up preparing with the recipe, start with getting the health benefits written down. Then start the blog post. I post the recipes only if I am satisfied with the outcome. My hubby is so sweet that he never interrupts me in anything and he leaves me to explore and be independent. This is such a great boon for a person like me.
Nominating 3 more bloggers for the writing process blog tour
- Charanya @ Yes! I’m Vegan
- Ahila @ A Taste of Sri Lankan Cuisine
- Lori @ Creating beauty in the kitchen
Friends please answer the same questions and Please nominate 3 fellow bloggers to do the same.
Versatile Blogger Award
This is my second time of Versatile Blogger award, nominated by Lori @ Creating beauty in the kitchen I am sure no one would need an introduction to this lovely lady 🙂 she is extremely a kind person I have seen. She is the one who recognized me in my earlier blogging days and introduced me to many people. She got me to Fiesta Friday where I am meeting a lot of people around. I would say, I started enjoying to blog just by seeing her blog and her way of interacting with people. Thanks a lot Lori , you make me smile all the time 🙂
Here are the rules
- Put the Versatile picture in your post
- Link to the blogger who nominated you
- Give 7 facts about yourself
- Nominate 15 people
7 more facts about me
- I love Friends sitcom, I can watch it anytime 🙂
- I watch at least 2 to 3 movies a week either English movies or Indian movies
- I can’t sleep easily 😦 have to toss around for hours…
- I can talk for hours together without sleeping also, but my hubby seldom talks 🙂
- I can’t tolerate someone who tries to dominate me, my concept is everyone is equal and must be treated equal.
- I hate to do someone else’s eaten plate, I feel disgusting 😦
- I like plain sober cotton clothes, I feel very comfortable with it.
As I have already nominated in my earlier award of the same and when I see most of my fellow bloggers have already received this awards and I really don’t want to dump more so, please excuse me from this.
Thanks again Lori 🙂

Thanks Poojita for this award 🙂
