Liked reading your list. I think your husband ought to take a look – Diamonds mentioned several times ! 😀
You like ‘Saravana Bhavan’! Me too, but then I’m from Chennai ..
Oh and you are a Pro-blogger ma`m!
“Learning new things is fun” – Double thumbs up. I’m with u.
Enjoyed this.. Will definitely take up your tag next week.
Phewwww! Baap rey! Thank God u didn’t tag me with this one… I would have got stuck on the very first question itself! I watch only “Sa Re Ga Ma Pa” on Zee TV. 🙁
nice tag! i was tagged by Mr. Bharti for the same one..I thought everybody will think ‘oh she’s a kid’! when i wrote tom and jerry in ‘8 shows i love to watch’, but now i saw everybody has mentioned that one…:)..
I do watch ‘Sarabhai Vs Sarabhai’ its hilarious….
Thank God that you have not tagged me… this would have been too much…
I was in such a hurry to complete the tag that I forgot to comment …
Was great to read your answers. Diamond – chakmak chakmak ..
Hope you get your 8 wishes.
@ lostworld: Hi! I dont know when I’d get new ones! But THANK GOD!…after a mild heart attack and loads of panic attacks, I found my one diamond and gold earring!!
After checking in the hotel, a look of a tired me in the mirror revealed that an earring was missing! Frantic looks here and there, ended in the Taxi! And FOUND it! Though the back screw could not be found! 🙁
I’ve been to Chennai many times and everytime, either the breakfast or the dinner for the day was at Sarwana Bhawan!! It’s just amazing!
Would love to see your 8 wonders!!
@ Kaddu: Why do you keep giving the impression that you do not like tags, when you do them so amazingly!!
Sa Re Ga…is good! I used to passive watch it too (for some time!), coz my mom is an ardent fan of this program!! 🙂
@ Shilpa: Tom and Jerry, defies age group categorization!! Everybody likes them!! And it’s so very refreshing and always brings a smile!!
@ Dhiman: Yeah, Sarabhai…is very witty and intelligent comedy!! All the characters are so very entertaining!! 🙂
@ avdi: Your 8 wonders tag is just superb!! Loved it!! 🙂
And thank you so much for your wishes!! 🙂
Hee hee hee! 😀
I like them when I’ve got nothing else to write about… but recently, I’ve been like ‘flooded’ with them! Hence, the temporary dislike! :p
“Be chary of giving advice, wise don’t need it and fools don’t heed it!” – well it drove me to think over the recent incident of me advising my brother-in-law as he was posing me a weirdy look. I’m n’t clear whether he did not that or did not heed that…
Nicely written Shilpa 🙂
@ Musings of a lonely traveler: My experience tells me not to give advice…(though I keep giving it still and remember the learning later, when I get the weird look or the patronizing look!!) 🙂
Arey Shilpa!
