I’m a little under the weather, so I will share a couple of awards with you readers which I “won” last month.
My first award was the Lemonade, which was presented to me by Antonella from the STUPIDEST corner of my mind. I received this award because I deal with topics with a certain attitude. One instance of this can be seen here. 
The concept of this award is to
1. Thank the person who was so thoughtful for giving you this award by linking their blog to this post. (Mucho Thanksies Anto)
2. Put the logo on your blog or post. (….check)
3. Nominate 10 blogs which show great attitude/gratitude. (….ummm I’ll do 5)
4. Link your nominees to your post.
5. Comment them to tell them about the award they’ve won.
Right, so here they are… (and I shall be counting in Arabic… because I am learning arabic (but I knew to count already))
Wahid) MaliZOMG – Blogging is all about passion, and this guy does it with attitude – thats a lethal combo!
Ithnayn) Mars – I love honest writing… I love reading about real life issues, and I get my fix over at Mars’.
Thalatha) Mona – When you talk about passion, you talk about Mona. Everything is attitude, and standing up for what you believe is right. Rebellious Arab Girl is one of my favourite blogs because of the style and “anger” in the writing.
Arba-a) Falak – I like this blog because of the giggle factor. It reminds me of myself behaving in the same random ways 10 years ago.
Khamsah) Katherine because I feel that she is inspirational to young people, trying to get through the battles of day to day life, doing what she does.
I thank you Anto for picking me on number 7 on your list…. it is my luck number, and I feel privileged! 
The second award which I received recently was the Honest Scrap award, which I received from MY over at For the Love of Life
The “rules” for this award are:
1) Choose a minimum of 7 blogs that you find brilliant in content or design.
2) Show the 7 winners names and links on your blog, and leave a comment informing them that they were prized with “Honest Scrap.”
3) List at least 10 honest things about yourself.
10 honest things…… (oh dear……)
a) I try and be logical when sometimes I should be emotional.
b) I will have an opinion on anything and everything.
c) Most of my friendships have been formed because of my reliability.
d) I always used to think that I would have issues with commitment in a relationship. Turns out, I over committed in my last one.
e) I constantly try and bring out the best in a person; I feel the need to motivate anyone and everyone.
f) I love eating, I will dip my fingers into anything.
g) I feel at home with people from different cultures and regions.
h) My inquisitive nature will get me into trouble one day. One person should not be allowed to ask this many questions!
i) My style is to shock and awe… it’s the rebel in me which brings out the “dark side”…
j) I selected the title of my blog based on one of my beliefs in life – anything and everything seems simple in life…. until you get down to actually do it… to put the biscuit in the basket.
As for the nominations… well, I will nominate the same 5 people above, plus Freshly Squeezed because she gives me a genuine reason to wear my shades indoors, and Minus 1 thousand because I enjoy her pics, and recipes! Did I mention I love eating?
Shukran MY for nominating me, and for understanding what my blog name meant!
