One Lovely Blog Award & The 6th Photo Tag

Today I got a lovely surprise from my dear friend
Thom at Thom's Place 4 Well Whatever.
I'm so thankful & delighted that he thought of me for

The One Lovely Blog Award

Click this following link, if you want to know the story behind the one lovely blog award. I think the insight story of an award is very interesting. Did you know that the button above is actually a painting?

Here are the rules that MUST be followed:
1. Add the logo to your blog.
2. Link to the person from whom you received this award
3. Nominate 7 or more blogs
4. Leave a message on their blog,
letting them know they are "One Lovely Blog"!

Like I wrote before, I always think of the person who gave me an award as someone who particularly deserves it. But, they already have received the award and it's too difficult for me to make all other choices. There are SO MANY lovely blogs close to my heart!

If you have found yourself in one of the lovely categories in my post here and I am a visitor of your blog, then this award is dedicated to you from the bottom of my heart. I would love you to accept my deeply appreciation by grabbing this button and place it on your blog. Still there are no strings attached, I know that some of you might not be too fancy about buttons. The most important part is that you know I think you have a lovely blog. Thank you.

Now, let's go to the 6th Photo tag.
I don't know why, but I really do enjoy tags.
So thanks again, Thom!

Your mission, should you choose to accept it:
1) Go to your photo files…Select the 6th photo folder
2) Select the 6th photo in that folder
3) Post that photo along with the story behind it.
4) Then challenge 6 blog friends to do the same!

Here’s the 6th photo in my 6th folder, Food & Drinks
from my photo files

I took this shot on April 25th, 2009 at 2:51pm with my SE mobile camera when I was enjoying a cup of strawberry tea at my husband's office. The smell and taste of this tea was really lovely and relaxing. You can see a part of the green cup I used at the background. I thought that the tea bag package would be suitable for one of my Ruby Tuesday's entries, but haven't submitted this photo ever since. Looking at it now, I think it would also be suitable for Double Trouble Tuesday. You know what, I'm gonna submit it now. Play along with this tag, if you feel you are up to it. It is a lot of fun!

DOUBLE TROUBLE TUESDAY

Let's all encourage Martha's 11 year old wanna-be photographer and blogger son by playing along. There are no real rules, it's up for your own interpretation. Thank you!
