Tagged by madmomma, I'm taking you through The Story of Me, through blogs.
The rules: Post 5 links to 5 of your previously written posts. The posts have to relate to the 5 key words given (family, friend, yourself, your love, anything you like). Tag 5 other friends to do this meme. Try to tag at least 2 new acquaintances (if not, your current blog buddies will do) so that you get to know them each a little bit better. Now don’t forget to read the archived posts and leave comments.
Well, my links are going to be on a varied set of subjects because I blog about a lot of different things and haven't really mentioned any of these specifically as the focus of any posts...Family - I wrote about my grandma here and here who I think is just awesome. There's a hysterically funny story from a summer back when I was in college. And many of my memories related to food and family.
Friend - weirdly, haven't really blogged about them. Did do a draft once, but it didn't read well to me so never posted it. But I will tell you that I'm lucky enough to have 2 BFFs/ soul sistahs and we've survived going from single-ready-to-mingle fashionistas to married to mothers who think they're well-dressed if they don't have a snotty towel perched on their shoulders with our friendships intact. Now sanity, I'm not so sure about!
Me: well, the whole blog/ blogs is me, dontcha think? Though, thanks to mummyjaan, I did find this one.
Love: Well, now, that opens up the floodgates, in more ways than one. I love books and reading, music, gardens, monsoons, winters, food, India...but even more, I love my babies, Chubbocks who's growing up too fast and Puddi - the urchin princess whose smile makes my day, and my better one third.
Anything I like - I'd classify that as posts which I enjoy reading over again or which speak about something dear to my heart, so I'll start with mother love and the issues of being a working mom, and about bringing up a mixed up family. I always think age is such a non-issue too. I'm really looking forward to our summer holiday by train after re-reading this. You can see what A and I look like here. And these are some of my favourite recent food posts: Secret sauce, Terroir and Chocolate.
Now to tag, I pick:

This looks like an interesting meme... should be fun to do. Thanks.
I have to read one more time to understand the meme but it seems fun. Will try
Anita - I look forward to it!
Indosungod - all you have to do is to link back to your old posts featuring the subjects mentioned in the meme. Looking forward to your post!
Have been going through the posts you highlighted. Makes for very interesting reading. I bet you can type really fast :)!
BEV, thanks for thinking of me! :) Do you have an e-mail address I can write to you at?
Mummyjaan,
Yes, I'm a really fast 2-finger typist - I used to type faster than all the secys at work. But I've noticed that over time, with the urge to write quickly I end up making many more spelling goofs!
Sujatha - left you a message with my email id on your blog.
