Sashree from A warm welcome to all Foodies has passed on the "Nice Matter" Award, the "Good Chat Award" and she also has tagged me to write 10 things I hate..Thank you Sashree you have become a good friend and have a lovely blog with some nice authentic recipes.

"Nice Matters Award is for those bloggers who are nice people; good blog friends and those who inspire good feelings and inspiration. Also for those who are a positive influence on our blogging world.”

Well I like so many blogs and people and many have already received these awards.

I would like to pass the Nice Matters Award to both Alka and Srivalli who have been very understanding and nice and I love their blogs.

Alka of Sindhi Rasoi - She has been really nice and has some great authentic Sindhi recipes on her blog

Srivalli of Cooking For All Seasons I love dropping by her blog for some great Andhra recipes. And love the Melas she is hosting.

I would also pass the "Good Chat Blog" to Alka, She has some good write ups and pictures you should drop by her blog and Swati Raman Garg of Chatkor, its so refreshing to read the story behind each of her recipes.

Well since we are talking about Good Chat Blogs, I decided why not share some Mixture recipe to share to have along with a hot cup of tea and some gossip. I love using Rice Krispies cereal has it is really crisp and lends a nice sweetness in comparison to the spices. Best part is it takes no time to make and you can play around with the spices to suit your taste.
