My Bag of Awards

I am back! I had the most amazing time with my mom, though I wish I had some more time with her...I was in no mood to do anything after she left and was feeling quite lost. I am getting back into my routine now and so I decided to start off by expressing my gratitude to all my blogger friends for their concern when I just disappeared from the scene suddenly. A big thanks also to my friends who have found me worthy of some of the awards that are making the rounds these days. I really feel privileged. 4 months back, I wouldn't have imagined that I would be having so many friends and that my blog and me would get this much appreciation. Thanks to everyone...each one of you deserves this award.
So, here I proudly display, my bag of awards... :)
Thanks to Padma, Archana, & Athika for this award,


Thanks also to Archana, Laavanya, Srivalli & Richa for this award,

The Power of Schmooze Award is for bloggers who "effortlessly weave their way in and out of the blogosphere, leaving friendly trails and smiles, happily making new friends along the way. They don't limit their visits to only the rich and successful, but spend some time to say hello to new blogs as well. They are the ones who engage others in meaningful conversations, refusing to let it end at a mere hello - all the while fostering a sense of closeness and friendship."

Keeping with the tradition, I would like to pass on these awards, in no particular order, to,
Suganya of Tasty Palettes
Swapna of Swad
Hima of SnackORama
Jyothi of Andhra Spicy
Viji of Vcuisine
Roopa of My Chow Chow Bhath
