Honestly!

I was astonished and flattered to recieve another award last week.

Emily White at her blog Stepping into Fantasy saw fit to grant me the Honest Scrap Blog Award! Thank you Emily!

Here's my award:

Now that's what I call hard core.

I'm very proud to have received this award because it means that someone out there, namely Emily, views my writing as honest. Nothing could be more meaningful to me as I've always tried hard to tell it like it really is. So being awarded Honest Scrap is a huge honour.

Now the hard part is that I have to reveal ten things about myself to you. Since I just revealed ten things with my Sugar Doll Award (and even they were difficult to come up with) I'll have to think really hard to find ten new things to tell you.

So, here goes:

1. I can speak Gujarati, which is my mother tongue, but I can't help making a few grammatical mistakes when I do. It's embarassing.

2. I like jello (jelly in English speak) but only when it's vegan.

3. I like tall dark men who read. Tall dark men who don't read are plebs.

4. I've started to dislike cheese after four months without any. This is strange because I used to be addicted to the stuff. I'd eat it in anything. Now I find it a burden on my digestive sytem.

5. I almost never complain but if neglected for long enough I can whine like you've never seen a person whine before.

6. I secretly like to make daisy chains and wear them in my hair. It's hopelessly unsophisticated but I can't help myself.

7. I can lay in bed for an obscenely long amount of time. I never get tired of it. I also like to lie around in lush green grass and doze or read. I never get tired of that either. That's when I make those daisy chains.

8. I love nature but I also love cities. Old cities. Cities with character and culture and energy. London and New York are my favourite places. I could live in those places happily for the rest of my life and always be excited by the buzz and bustle of city life. It's so sexy.

9. Despite my love of cities I hate Mumbai, Delhi, and Los Angeles. They're dirty and depressing and definitely not sexy.

10. I love walking and walk a lot wherever I am. I'd rather walk than drive, ride, fly, swim, be carried, or anything else. And since I've 'been there done that' with all these options, I know what I'm talking about.

So there are my ten revelations. Phew!

Now I have to pass on my award. It's always difficult to chose among the many fabulous blogs I follow but with dilligence I've managed to narrow the list down. I'm passing the Honest Scrap award on to:

L. Diane Wood at Spunk on a Stick

Paige at Paradise Valley 2

Cuban at A Cuban in London

Uneasy at The Uneasy Writer

Pan at A Vagabond Tale

Jennifer at Intimate Family

Ronda at Ronda's Wonderland

Do check out these cool blogs that are honest, real, and a lot of fun. These's something different and interesting about each and every one. I love it.
