Thank you Archana :)

About a couple of months ago computers topped my of things to “avoid like plague unless under severe circumstances”. Its been an amazing journey since then, from learning to mail, to chatting with my daughter and for the last month and a half – blogging about food.

There are a fair set of humorous incidents to illustrate my amusing chemistry with computers before I entered the world of blogging. The most famous one being the time I thought the computer was sick because the wall paper had been changed!! Now that I have started scribbling on food on virtual papers, I realize that I have missed meeting and interacting with so many wonderful people who are as crazy about the simple pleasures of life as I am.

But this post isn’t about my relationship about computers and how this has changed since I started blogging. This is a post to thank Archana, who writes at luv2eathate2cook, for all her affection, friendliness, laughter and help that she gave me and The ‘Yum’ Blog.

Archana pointed me out enthusiastically to different forums like Food Blog Desam and many Food Blog Events, helped me with figuring WordPress around from things like putting ‘widgets’ (about a month back I would have thought this was some kind of snack) to replying to comments. She even introduced our blog to the tons of food bloggers.

I have also been reading about awards that bloggers give each other – and since there seem to be no rules or governing body etc etc, and awards seem to be delightfully left to the individual discretion – I’d like to give Archana the Thoughtful Blogger award.

And this Archana, is especially for you 🙂
