Ultimate Blog Party 2011 - Welcome

Ultimate Blog Party 2011

If you are coming here from the Ultimate Blog Party 2011, a warm welcome to you. Grab your beverage of choice and join me here. Please feel free to browse around and read more.

To get you started, the links on the right side which says Even More Things About Me would be a good place to start.

Are you back? Well, while you were out looking at it, I did too. I realized that the Link "Why Just About Anything?' is outdated. Sorry to have wasted 2 minutes of your life. I do have a cute child now and I am a SAHM now. I gave up my job when the cute factor in the house rose exponentially around 2009. I lost my figure, went through pain, delivered the child and I saw no reason not to be there to enjoy all that cuteness once he was out of my tummy.

I love traveling and I have come to realize that I do love cooking. It has come rather as a shock to me. I do not like the clean up after and despite the cooking, I am not very domestic. I have succeeded well in killing anything I have tried to grow in the garden, yet I continue to try every year. The Spring season gets me every year. I love reading and try to read a little bit everyday. I might not have time to wash dishes everyday, but I have time to read. Priorities, people.

I am a nerd, and love to play word games. I am rather sarcastic in real life. Hubby is still my best friend after 5 years of marriage. It is awfully sappy, but I love him more than I did 5 years ago.

I used to to be terrified of dogs, but got one and then had to give him up. It was one of the hardest things I had to do. I wrote about it here.

I am Indian living in America and I once wrote about what I love about America.

I am shy at real life parties, but I hope it didn't show in this one. Once the party is over, I hope you come back and visit me again.

I love your view on being a stay at home mom. "I lost my figure, went through pain, delivered the child and I saw no reason not to be there to enjoy all that cuteness once he was out of my tummy." That is such a perfect way of saying it!!! I'm going to have to remember this the next time someone asks me what I do. :-)

I can totally relate to your non-green thumb. I kill silk plants - lol!

Stopping by from the UBP. So nice to meet you.

Cheers,

Sounds like we have much in common. I am a plant murderer too. I have given up.
I love to cook and it is a good thing with five kids, but it is also a good thing I taught them to clean up since I refuse!!

Nice to meet you.

I've always been a little on edge around dogs. We don't have one - yet.
