Urban Mantra: Blog Awards and the Christmas Spirit

Blog Awards and the Christmas Spirit

By Urban Mantra December 10, 2012 Christmas, Christmas tree, holiday, holiday season, Lovely Blog Award, winter

It’s always hard getting back to routine after vacations, especially when that vacation happens to be in Bangkok! As it always happens, we suffered from vacation withdrawal and homesickness for a few days after getting back from a whirlwind trip filled with amazing food, family time, relaxation, and shopping. What did make it easier, though, is the holiday spirit back here in the States. Stores are decorated with Christmas trees, holiday markets abound, and good cheer is in the air!

We were also honored and delighted to receive the Lovely Blog Award from Ashy at the Zing of My Life. We love Ashy’s style and sweet nature, which is reflected on her blog, and so appreciate her support! Please visit her blog to read more about her fashion, food, and travel adventures!
