Awards/Tags
The Dim Sum Book Tag

The Dim Sum Book Tag is the brainchild of Joey @ Thoughts and Afterthoughts and Jenna @ Reading With Jenna. Dim sum is a style of Chinese cuisine whereby food is served in small (tapas-like) portions and is common during yum cha (which literally means: drinking tea). This tag is inspired by good company and good eats.

Here are some rules to devour this tag:

  1. Thank the blogger who nominated you, linking back to their site
  2. Devour dim sum and answer the tag questions
  3. Tag five others to join your round table for some dim sum fun
  4. Food coma

(If you could link back to this or Jenna’s post, I’d love to compile a list of taggers who completed it!)

People who’ve devoured dim sum:

Ashley @ Socially Awkward Bookworm
Deanna @ A Novel Glimpse
Aimal @ Bookshelves & Paperbacks
Cristina @ My Tiny Obsession
Kat @ The Impossible Girl Blog
