Blog award - my first ever!!

I am guilty of not publishing this post earlier, I was awarded my first ever blog award in March 2012.


This cute heart locked was awarded by Urmi, Thanks very much! This is certainly encouraging! To keep this chain going, I have received the following rules :-

1. If you get the award, pass it on to 7 blogs
2. Put the picture of the award in your post
3. Don't pass this award back to me
4. Answer the questions below and post it on your blog.


1. What makes you feel great about yourself?
This is definitely not a question that I can make myself sound humble! hahaha... Well, let's see I think  how I surprise myself at being able to learn and adapt quickly to people, situations and places would be the answer. Also, I am glad about the fact that I am not prejudiced before I hear and talk to a person, no matter what the topic and no matter what their culture and their background. I am known for my sense of humor also, which I think is always better than just being that pretty face that's so hard to resist! LOL! :-D

2. Who inspires you the most? And specifically, which qualities inspire you in each person? You can list as many as you like.
Mom and Dad for sure a big inspirations for me. The amount of growth they have had through time and how they manage happiness between ups and downs. They both are very giving by nature and are extremely simple in their lifestyle. That's highly admirable in today's world when people get carried away by the tiniest of achievements. Them being supportive and wonderful parents definitely gives a kick of wanting to be great parents to your own kids. Not to forget, all the grounded values they have passed on to me and my sister. 
Further, a lot of people that I meet and sometimes read/watch about are great inspirations. Specially those people who make the best of life even if they aren't fully physically able and still fight every single day in their lives.
Finally, I think there is something to always learn from every individual you meet!



Now, I would like to pass this award on to the following 5 awesome bloggers (as I really don't read 7 blogs regularly) :-
1. Shri
3. Latha
4. RJ
5. Suju

Happy blogging!!

Rare Snow day! 01/10/2021

 After a grilling 2020, 2021 started out with a mixture of emotions - grim but hopeful, distant from family but long WhatsApp calls, rainy but looking forward to the sunshine in the coming days. A lot of R&R is how we started our New Years, thanks to the long weekend. We read, watched tv, cooked and slept a lot!  Once work started, it didn't even feel very different from the past few weeks. Unfortunately a few days into the first working week, there was chaos in the DC Capitol and many State Capitols. A riot started by an infuriating and possibly out-of-work men and women wanting to display their passionate support of an incapable President. Back to feeling uncertain and grim about the future, we were surprised by Mother Nature providing us a rare snow fall day here in Austin, TX! It was simply amazing and a great 2nd Sunday of the year where we got 3.5-4 inches of snow ! The sights were remarkable during and after the snow fall. The entire city and neighbors were thrilled...

Fun weekend trip!!

South Lake Tahoe (Nevada) was our adventure trip this Saturday, about a 4 hr drive from where we live. we started early and until halfway i put my driving skills to test! the tuf time was for my hubby, not me...i was just glad at the opportunity!! :-)So i survived till Sacremento( i didnt know it was capital of CA). 2nd half of the drive was mainly on winding roads around the mountains while elevating yourself upto 7000ft! it was amazing as you get a scenic view of mountains n the lake below! awesome!! Once we entered the resort we first got a booking for para sail...I must admit from a distance it did look a bit too wild and so-not-like-me venture...but then the whole idea was to explore and try out new things...so went for it - from the 3 different heights of 400/800/1200ft we chose 800ft! i cudnt believe it myself, but i was in for it. so we walked around the beach area n enquired abt jet skiing while waiting for the parasail call.they made a group of 3 (a mother-daughter, a coupl...
