Tagged with a Booky MeMe

Swapna of Crafts and Cooking has tagged me with the Booky MeMe. The rules of the tag are as follows:

• Pick up the nearest book
• Open to page 123
• Find the 5th sentence
• Post the next three sentences
• Tag 5 people and acknowledge the person who tagged you

The nearest book is always far away in my case, because almost all my books are lying in cartons under the bed (as mentioned in my First Tag). The books I have bought from here are inside my cupboard, away from my curious and adventurous toddler who loves to tear up pages of any book she can lay her hands on.

Anyway, back to the MeMe. I run to my cupboard, grab the book I am currently reading, turn to page 123, count up to the 5th sentence, and read the next 3 sentences, which happen to be:

1. Peita had put up heroic resistance and performed a stunning one-woman show in technicolour and stereophonic sound without the aid of loudspeakers.
2. 'I will not return, not on my life.
3. Everybody mollycoddles and pampers Eddie. ...'

I would like to pass this to:

A_and_N of Delectably yours,

Dee of Ammalu's Kitchen
Simran of Bombay Foodie
Vaishali of Holy Cow!

Happy Friendship Day to all:-)
