Yippee… I Made It!

Dear Friends,

I am on Cloud 9 today and 100 ft. above the ground with tremendous joy! Most of you might have already known the reason for this! Yes, yes, I have won two wonderful contests: Fortune Cooking Contest and Open Sesame 1. This is like a wonderful treat for me as our marriage anniversary (June 8th) is coming up! So I have so many reasons to celebrate our marriage day with a great joy. Thank you all so much for your wonderful wishes!


Fortune Cooking Contest:

This wonderful contest is hosted by wonderful duo, dear Shriya and dear Nithu of Spicy Tasty, where the winners will be chosen randomly by a lucky draw at Random.org. The main rule of this contest was to pick a zodiac sign and its corresponding food item listed and whip up a delicious dish with it. I have chosen my sister’s zodiac sign (Leo) and prepared a dish with Bell Peppers. I was too lucky to be chosen randomly in a lucky draw! I am so happy for this and thank you dear Shriya and Nithu for hosting such a wonderful contest.


Open Sesame 1 Contest:

This is another wonderful contest under International Food League, hosted by another wonderful duo, dear DK and dear Siri, where we need to crack a riddle after choosing a box. So I have chosen Box#3, cracked the riddle and prepared Mini Millet Patties. The winner will be selected through voting. Thank you all so much for voting for me and making me win this contest. I am really blessed to have so many friends who always support me! I am really happy that I have entered this blogging world! Or else how could I make so many wonderful friends like you all? Thank you, thank you and thank you!

Last but not least, Dear Sashree of A Warm Welcome to all the Foodies, has made me happy again by passing the “Good Chat Blog Award”. Thank you so much dear Sashree for thinking about me!

And one more, I was informed by Alpesh of Linq.in that my blog has achieved the following awards:

1. Best blog of month in Recipes category for March.
2. Best blog of week in Recipes category on 03-16-2008.

Thank you for choosing my blog for this, Alpesh!
