To those who stopped by to check out my blog, thank you very much. I have been bogged down with my work, another new blog and lots of unexpected incidents that took up a huge amount of my time. Hence, this blog has not been updated for the last couple of days. 

To those who came to check on the winner of the Father’s Day Contest, please accept my apology for the delay. I had posted the original closing date as 09/06/2007 thinking that Father’s Day falls on 10/06/2007*slaps head* I shall be announcing the result a week late from the original date, meaning it will be out on 16/06/2007. Once again, my profound apologies for the delay and thank you for your patience.

I’ve just ordered a custom designed header as I needed a more appropriate one that matches the theme of my blog. The earlier one was ok, considering it was FREE. I was surfing the net for web designers and stumbled upon this site www.go4templates.com. I love the designs of their templates and naturally, checked out their banner design offers.

Actually, the price range that the website quoted was totally out of my budget but nevertheless, I dropped them an email. After corresponding a couple of times, Kundan, the designer and owner of the company actually agreed to design one for me which was priced within my budget. In exchange for his kind deed to me, I am promoting his website here.

For those who are interested to have a ready made template, custom made template, banners, headers, you can hop over to www.go4templates.com and check out the wonderful designs. Go4templates is a web designing company belonging to two brothers Kundan and Kishore who have 4 years track record in this business. As far as service in concerned, they were courteous and efficient and I enjoyed the fact that they fulfilled all my requirements. For a simple header, the price will start from USD25. Take my word for it, these guys are a great team to work with!

Lastly, do cast your vote for my poll below. I would love to know your opinions.

My hubby is an avid fan of fishing and before we had kids, he had often gone deep sea fishing with his good pals. However, since we had kids, he had voluntarily put a halt to his fishing trips.

Lately, we had been discussing about his hobby and I could feel his eagerness to join his friends on such trips again. As much as I hate the thought of sacrificing our family weekends, I agreed to let him indulge in his hobby once every 3 months. He was so delighted that we had both come to an agreement on this issue that he has started buying a new fishing rod, fishing tackle and all the other fishing accessories that he needed.

Looking at hubby’s expenses, I can only say fishing is certainly not a cheap sport but as long as he is happy, I guess I will be too

Even the name of the website itself is so cute! Lol. KooKoo Bear Kids is a site which parents will enjoy shopping at. You must be wondering why I said that. Well, KooKoo Bear Kids is a life-long dream fulfillment of Tara and Joe Mediate who wanted to create a delightful shopping experience for consumers seeking upscale kids furniture and gifts for baby and children. To me, browsing this site is already a delightful experience by itself.

KooKoo Bear Kids offers hundreds of products available via their web site, catalog and even retail store. I love the fact that the design of the products is from a “kid’s point of view”. They have so much to offer from delightful children’s furniture, kids bedding, accessories, rugs, curtains, wall hangings and all sort of decorative items beautifully designed for sleep and play.

P/S Since you are here, why not check out my Father’s Day Contest? Hurry, contest closes on 09/06/2007.

Believe it or not, fashion has evolved to the extent that even world class tennis players are pouting their lips and saying “I have nothing to wear!” before they go on court. The premier players now demand both style and the latest fabric technology in their tennis apparel. Maria Sharapova, the princess of on court tennis fashion may not have won many tournaments but she has certainly made many opponents green with envy for sporting the latest trend and style. Many tennis stars like Daniels Hantuchova, The Williams sisters, Ana Ivanovic and Nicole Vaidisova are now emulating Maria’s on court fashion sense.

Even the leading sports apparel manufacturers such as Nike, adidas, Lacoste, and Diadora, acknowledged that womens tennis apparel are just as essential as their on court tennis skills. Hence, the services of the world’s top women tennis players are constantly in demand to showcase their latest tennis dresses and skirts. Adidas has teamed-up with clothing designer Stella McCartney, to allow rising WTA star Maria Kirilenko to sport the new designs. Nike is also doing equally well with its designer Serena Williams. If you ask me, whether it’s adidas, Nike or Diadora, each has their own favourite line of tennis wear that appeals to their audience.

  

 

It certainly cannot be denied that some people may have a passion for tennis, while others love fashion, and then there’s those who love tennis fashion!
