Sunshine Blogger Award

Hey my lovely friends! This is a very special post for me and I am feeling so happy and excited to be writing this post. This is the first time that I have been nominated for the Sunshine Blogger Award by Hannah from Floraful. When I discovered her blog I was very impressed and loved her style of writing as well as the beautiful look of her blog. I would suggest you should absolutely visit her blog as she is amazing. I feel honored to be nominated for this award and want to thank Hannah for the kind love and support she has shown. I am also sorry Hannah for the delay in posting this post. 🙂

Here are my answers to the questions from Hannah.

1. What type of camera do you use for your blog photos?

Right now, I use my Samsung Galaxy Alpha Smartphone to take my pictures. I have to make sure it is bright enough to get the pictures right.

2. What is your favorite fall beverage?

I don’t have any specific fall beverage, but I like to drink a nice Masala tea  and some Nestle Instant Coffee which I prepare at home.

3. Which beauty products can you absolutely not leave the house without on your face?

Lipstick and some powder. I always wear lipstick and feel it brightens my face and dust a little powder to reduce the oily shine on my face.

4. If you could go back and fix one of your biggest blogging mistakes, what would that be?

I am quiet new to blogging and I don’t think I have made any blogging mistakes so far. But I think, I should be careful with my typos and punctuation marks. 🙂

5. How do you manage blogging on top of your other life obligations?

I am an at home mum and most of my time is for my family. The remaining time I use for blogging and myself. I need to plan my time more efficiently in order to be more consistent with my posts. I also need to learn to schedule posts.

6. White, milk or dark chocolate? Which do you prefer and why?

I love milk chocolates and can eat a lot at a time but I try not to due to the sugar in the chocolates. I also like to eat dark chocolates with less sugar – advantages of having a doctor at home – Eat healthy is the mantra. 🙂

7. What was the last concert you went to?

I have never been to any concert in my life.

8. What are some of your holiday or Christmas traditions?

Even though we don’t celebrate Christmas much, Christmas is the favorite time of the year for our family. Firstly, its vacation time for kids and secondly my birthday is on 23rd December. Combining everything it becomes very festive all around. For the past many years it has now become a tradition to visit different places during this time. We have visited many countries and for the past 4-5 years we have been exploring US. Looking forward to our December trip from Seattle to Chicago.

9. Tarte or Too Faced? And why?

Tarte because I own more products from Tarte than Too Faced. I absolutely love the colorful Tarte packaging. I was first drawn towards Tarte and own a few beautiful palettes. But I need to try Too Faced as well. Their lip products are great.

10. What are your goals and plans for 2018?

I have not yet planned much for 2018, but I want to focus more on the growth of my blog. When I first started, I never expected anyone would even read what I write. But I am very happy with the love and response I am getting. I am enjoying every bit of my blogging and this motivates me to work harder to grow my blog and interact with such amazing people who share my interest.

11. What life quote do you live by and why?

” Work hard, be positive and you will succeed.” I totally believe in hard work and giving in your 100% to whatever goals you want to achieve in life. I am naturally a very positive and happy person. I feel if you believe in yourself and work hard the rest will automatically fall into place. I rarely have doubts about things not working. I know sometimes there are failures or things don’t work as we thought. It happens, but that doesn’t discourage me from starting afresh again. I always tell my kids if you work hard now, you will have a relaxed life later. 🙂

I hope you all liked my reply to Hannah’s lovely questions.  I would love to know your answers too? Let me know in the comments.

Until next time always stay motivated, work hard and spread happiness around. 🙂
