A new afghan WIP and an Award

Hellloooo!!! Life is very busy these days. I am not getting enough time for myself. But I did manage to squeeze in time to make a few grannies. These are being made as part of an ongoing stash busting attempt. I really liked this and this and thought, why not. I have also joined One a Day@ Gingerbread Girl to finish my granny throw. Started working on that, but more about it later.

Made a jacket for a tin. Something to keep my straight needles.

I got the versatile blogger award from Barbara@Made in K-town. She does beautiful crochet work. Please visit her blog if you haven't already. Thank You Barbara!! To accept this I need to share a few facts about me and pass it on to a few blogs I like.

Award!!!!

My blog got an award. Thank you so much Angie from Le Monde De Sucrette. It feels very special to have received it from her, since I find her so very creative. Please visit her blog, if you already haven't.

While accepting this award I have to say a few things about myself and then pass it on to a few of my favorite blogs. Let me start with a few things about myself.

1. I love colours! Those who read my posts must have guessed that by now:)
2. I love it when it rains. It really lifts my mood.  Also the weather when it is about to rain, slight winds and dark clouds, love it.
3. I believe in “Live and Let Live”.
4. I panic over silly things. But when faced with some really big issues in life, I have been very strong. But that has not stopped me from panicking over silly things.
5. I was a pretty choosy eater when I was a kid. But once I started living away from home, I started yearning for anything home cooked. Now my son is doing to me what I did to my mother. Is he and his grandmother plotting against me secretly?? :)
6. Have never grown nails in my hands. I got very uncomfortable whenever I have tried to. I love pedicures though.
7. I love gardening. My dream is to live in a house with ample land around where I can grow flowers, vegetables and fruits.
8. I’ve never had pets.
9. I am a vegetarian.

Now let me pass this on to a few of my favourite blogs.  ( Its really hard because I follow so many blogs and find most of them inspiring in one way or the other.)
