![]() Linking up with Corinne for Monday Musings Linking up with Vidya Sury for the Gratitude Circle We get to exchange so much about our lives-Bazinga! Somehow these gratitude posts have made us into closer online buddies. Well that’s all the news from my August 2019 and I look forward to reading yours too. Fingers crossed the listlessness has lessened and I will head back to my favorite gym in this month. I am just not in a mood to kick ass though I desperately need to. Health has been overall good though I have been lacking in the fitness workouts. ![]() Kicking myself over it now and its made me more determined to take part for September’s prompt. Motivated, I had dared to join up on the TOI writing contest but at the last moment chickened out in submitting my story. I am so blessed to have friends like this and thank the universe for putting them in my orbit. Two blogger friends find special mention as they took out time to message me privately over my writing ennui. Not only was it gratifying but hugely ego boosting too. I was totally blown away by the feedback on the post I did for it. The best part was the #WordsMatter bloghop that put my star on the map. I finally hit the writing mojo and managed to put up 7 posts this month on the blog. Best part was the cookie baking I got into and ended up parceling some to friends and family. I havent been that active in the kitchen this month but still managed to dish out some surprises. This month the rains have been plenty and hopefully all these trees will find fruitful grounds in our colony. I attended one more tree planting drive in the colony and was happy with the turn out and enthusiasm of the people. Next month, shall try to give out more bottles. I was amazed and delighted to note how many people wanted to try it. I just harvested a huge batch of it and decided to share with my fellow residents. Its an organic cleaner which has replaced most chemical cleaners in my house. I have been making conscious green efforts in my daily routine and began to make Bio Enzyme a few years back. Damyanti’s book was the Bazinga! ♥ Green efforts ♥ So even though I read one book out of context, I managed to read 4 books this month. The book is a crime thriller and extremely fast paced. I managed to read the book in a three hours sitting and now cant wait to attend the book launch. ![]() Its because I had just received the ARC copy of a fellow blogger turned friend’s debut novel. So it was a win-win both ways.īut when it came to reading one more book for the challenge, I totally ditched it. Best part is that I managed to find all the three books from my unread bookshelf. The prompts were in sync with Independence day and I had such a fun time doing this. I joined in on a fabulous readathon which was initiated by Shantala – a book blogger. Yup I will be shopping for some books now □ ♥ Bookish notes ♥ ![]() Plus one of them (as always) gifted me a huge Amazon voucher. Three of them called me before I could call them, it was so good to hear from them. I dont send rakhis anymore to my brothers, preferring to call and chat with them. Its been two years since I went Zero Waste for Rakhi. Some days it just pays to get out of bed □ I treated myself to the infamous Hot Chocolate Fudge from Nirula’s after ages it was as decadent and yummy as ever. I am happy to see such a huge corporate house investing in the future of the planet. These were on a payment basis-this move is certainly for the good of the environment. I shopped to my hearts content and was thrilled to see them use paper bags. Darn! I do love these loyalty schemes on credit cards. Bazinga!Īugust was also the month for unexpected gifts as my dad sent me a voucher for shopping at Westside. It has been so long since I sat and watched rains like this. I had to stop on the roadside and wait out the downpour which by the way, was simply awesome. It began to pour heavily just as I started driving down to meet her. Warm, effusive and oh so down to earth, she was every bit the delightful person I imagined her to be. We have been online friends for a while now and it was an absolute smasher to meet her in person. The best thing that happened in August was meeting up with Parul, a fellow blogger. It best describes how the month of August 2019 has been for me. What does Bazinga mean? Its the geeky, nerdy Sheldon’s way of saying “Gotcha” and “Yes” as he loves to have the last word in any conversation. In case you havent watched it, a few of the channels are playing re-runs of it. Nevertheless, am making up for the lost ground by binging on the episodes on Hotstar. Bazinga has really become quite the buzz word for me as I have fallen inextricably in love with the TV series – The Big Bang Theory.
