Over the weekend I was humbled to have received two blog award nominations. They were received from two blogs that I adore and follow keenly. Lukasz from The Brave Cook nominated me for “One Lovely Blog Award”. Reena from Yoga With Maheshwari nominated me for “A Very Inspiring Blog” award. I want to thank these delightful bloggers for their great support of my blog and for providing me with such lovely blogs to read and enjoy. Each award comes with different rules. Both require seven random things about me…
1. I play the baritone in my local brass band.
2. My favourite meal is Malai kofta.
3. I have a black cat called Barney who I love to pieces.
4. Next life I’m definitely coming back with silky, straight hair!
5. My son and I are going to paint our ping-pong table with brightly coloured triangles today.
6. I’m really scared of spiders.
7. I can sing Popeye the Sailorman in Latin.

4 Nominate 7 or more blogs and notify them on their blogs.
