Atul tagged me this time and while all the others he tagged seem to have smartly come up with their own versions of the tag, I have dawdled over this not knowing what else I could say about me which my limited readership does not already know about me.
1. I am known to perform and hold sustained that extremely complicated yogic asana for extended periods of time, the classic foot-in-mouth asana.
2. My nose swells quite independent of the rest of me- especially when I begin to cry, which is often.
3. I shake like a jelly when I laugh, which is often too.
4. I preen at my kids and can spend hours, even days, grooming and cleaning them.
5. I love eating bread (white, brown, warm, old, fresh, soft, fibre-rich, garlicky, flaky, buttery, cheesy, banana, raagi bread- you name it) and can actually spend the rest of life feeding on bread. Alas! I don't.
6. I am fiercely protective of all those whom I adopt as my own. I am NOT a soccer mom but can often lapse into the Mom-Fom-Hell mode.
7. I am very impressed by all the well-groomed folk, but can relate instantly to those whose hair is a bit, umm, disarrayed.
8. I appreciate people who sing and recite well, even while I am godawfully off-key myself.
And what of this tag? All of you who read this, please take this one and attempt your own tag of eight.

Starry,
What a pity you already done this tag- must read it!
Great that you are a breadie too! For all my love for bread, I am no great baker- in fact typically enough, cake is so much easier to bake than bread!
Shankari,
Dropped in to say hi. I like people who laugh with their whole body, shaking like jelly.
If you like bread, here's a link for you:

Priya.
interesting!

Priya,
I respect my bread tooooo much to deep fry it and make a halwa-ish paste of it! (Bread upma is as far as I'd go)
But thanks for a link to a wonderful site. Hope to lurk there often, long and gainfully!
:)
Ende,
