Dear Mitch has nominated me for the Mystery Blogger Award.

Thank you so much, Mitch, I am honoured that you think I rock!

I am a little snowed under with things at the moment and have taken part before, so I am sharing your post as a thank you!

I shall, however, answer your questions, because I love a good Q & A session!

Five Questions for my Nominees

What moment or choice in your past do you wish you could undo? My first choice of frames for my glasses… I looked like an 11-year-old granny!
Funniest movie/s you ever saw? There are so many… I’ve always loved the old British Humour, pre PC times so the Carry On Films are a must for a giggle! More recently Girls Trip had me cracking up, and Bad Moms!
Greatest song/s you’ve ever heard? You can’t ask an eclectic music lover like me a question like that! I love so many different songs, I couldn’t possibly choose one! Oh, Okay, I guess one is En Vogue’s Hold On!
Greatest truth you’ve ever learned? That nothing is more precious than my kids and family. They come first every time.
What are the last words you want to hear before dying, and/or the first words you want to hear after dying? Before: We love you, we miss you but we’ll be okay. After: Peace at last!

Thank you Anna for thinking of me for this award!

I have been lucky enough to receive this before, but I would like to share your post as thanks, and I will answer your given questions!

Did you ever attend a blogger event and which one (if not which one would you like to attend)?

Oh yes I did! I have been lucky enough to attend the Annual Bloggers Bash Awards in London the past two years and I aim to be there for the next one too! It was awesome to meet some of the bloggers who I admire so much!

Do you have pets and what kind of pets are they (if not would you like a pet)?

I have the wonderful Sonu Singh, our Punjabi cat, and my parrotlet pair, Heer and Ranjha!

What are you most proud of?

My children, Lil Man and Lil Princess – fur and feather babies included!

What is your favourite blogpost and why?

I have been asked this before, and I really don’t have a favourite blog post! So many of them strike a chord as there was a reason why I felt compelled to write them!

If you could stock up one thing for a lifetime supply what would that be?

It would have to be Maltesers Chocolate!

Thank you again Anna!!!

I haven’t done much Blogger Awards/Tags in a while. When Jasmine from Thoughts From Jasmine nominated me for The Mystery Blogger Award, I thought I’d do another one. I really like the t…

“Mystery Blogger Award”is an award for amazing bloggers with ingenious posts. Their blog not only captivates; it inspires and motivates. They are one of the best out there and they deserve every recognition they get. This award is also for bloggers who find fun and inspiration in blogging and they do it with so much love and passion. – Okoto Enigma

The award was created by Okoto Enigma. Here is the link: http://okotenigma.wordpress.com

A huge thank you to Rob of Art By Rob Goldstein for considering me eligible for this award. It is not one that I have received before!

Rules For The Nominees:

Display the award logo on your blog. √
List the Rules. √

Ok, so three things abut me…

I am a British Indian woman, with a Kenyan background thrown in, thanks to my parents being born there.
I wear many hats… Daughter, sister, wife, mother, friend, teacher, blogger, author… I wonder where I have the time to sleep sometimes…
I love to sing! I find a song for all occasions! And if I can’t find one, I’ll make one up!

5 questions to answer…

Would you jump in front of a bus for a complete stranger? I think it depends on the situation. If I was with my children, I couldn’t leave them and put myself in danger. If I was alone, I would.
If a neighbour was a hoarder and lived in unsafe and unhealthy conditions, would you ignore it or take action? If you did, what would it be? It would depend on how well I knew the neighbour.
If you could go back in time and change one day in your life, which day would it be and why? A bad decision I made a good few years back. I can;ty go into details, but that day comes back to haunt me regularly.
What is your favourite word? I can’t have one favourite word, I’m a writer!!!
The weird question: If you knew you could get away with it, would you rob a bank? It would haunt me for the rest of my life, so no!

My nominees…

I know some don’t accept awards, so consider this a thank you for being such amazing writers, inspiring me in many ways!

The same five questions for you to answer, please!

Would you jump in front of a bus for a complete stranger?
If a neighbour was a hoarder and lived in unsafe and unhealthy conditions, would you ignore it or take action? If you did, what would it be?
If you could go back in time and change one day in your life, which day would it be and why?
What is your favourite word?
The weird question: If you knew you could get away with it, would you rob a bank?

The award asks for a link to your best post.

I don’t know what my best post is… maybe it is yet to come… but here is one on family… which is most important to me!
