Above are the questions that Beckie at  Becca's Book Bug Blog set me to answer when she nominated me for the award. I didn't answer them on Monday as I didn't have the time but here I go...

1) My star-sign is Aquarius.

2) I believe there is something after we die, I hope it's something lovely and bright and colourful! I don't wish to think of my Dad (or anyone for that matter) in some horrible afterlife darkness.

3) I have one tattoo, it's between my shoulder blades and I'm not quite sure what it is. I liked it because it's pretty and different. I call it a chandelier but it's difficult for me to describe without showing you, and I don't want to show you...sorry!
For the record, I thought long and hard about getting a tattoo. It wasn't a rash decision made on the spur of the moment. I gave it much consideration because after all, it is a lifetime mark on your skin. I will not be having anymore.

4) I do drive, I don't have a car at the moment at it makes more financial sense for our family to only have one car. My husband has a Renault Megane '07, I used to drive a Fiat Grande Punto '08.

5) My favourite month of the year? It has to be December. It contains excitement, cosy nights, gift-making, crafts, cinnamon, hot chocolate, twinkly lights...and of course Christmas. Without a doubt my favourite.

6) I don't have any scented candles but I do have a favourite ...Yankee Candle, I don't know the official name of it but it smells like fresh laundry. I heart it!

7) I am right handed.

8) I am terrified of spiders and death. To the point of panic attacks and cold sweats.

9) I like a glass of rose wine a couple of times a month, the fruitier and sweeter the better.
Non alcoholic drink? Coffee, I can't function without several coffees throughout the day.

10) I had two cartoons as a child that I loved, they were Raggy Dolls and Fraggle Rock.

11) I love my name, I wouldn't change it for the world. 


So there we go, I hope you feel you know a little more about me. I enjoyed answering these questions!


Thank you for reading today.
Lots of love,

Liebster Blog Award!


Look who's back!! <sings>


I got my laptop back, wahoo!  I can't even begin to explain how lost I was without it... I kept thinking of things that I needed to do and send and pictures I wanted, so frustrating! Oh I'm so glad I've got it back! I can crack on with the things that I'm way behind with.


And what good news to come back to! The Liebster Blog Award! My friend Beckie over at http://www.beccabookbug.blogspot.co.uk/ nominated me for this award some time ago but because I had no internet and then no laptop I haven't been able to really look at it.
I am THRILLED to receive this but a bit baffled by the rules if I'm honest. Mainly because I don't get enough time to myself to read 11 other blogs, or even 5! So I have absolutely no idea who to nominate. :(


Does that mean I'm not allowed to display the award? I don't want to break any rules so I won't display it, but I do want to show you it...



For those who aren't familiar with the award (I wasn't before this), the Liebster Blog Award is an award given to upcoming bloggers who have 200 followers or less. The word 'liebster' is German in origin and is a term on endearment and means beloved, dearest, sweet, kindest etc.

What an honour! Thank you so much to Beckie for nominating me and my blog for this. I wish I was a bit more experienced and understood what to do now! :-S



Thank you so much for your patience through this technology nightmare, if you come back tomorrow I have a very easy to make Disney tag! I can't wait to show you.

Lots of love,
Kaye xx
