Brown paper packages, tied up with strings...

These are a few of my favourite things...

My blogging friend Lou over at Lous boos and shoes invited me to take part in a Getting to know you Q and A. How very kind of you Lou.

Here goes.

1/ What is your favourite time of the day?

Night time. Late. I'm a night owl. I try to go to bed by ten thirty but its never before midnight.

2/ When and where did you meet the love of your life?

On my way to a mutual friends engagement party. Waiting for a bus. Almost 4 years ago.

3/ What three words would your friends outside the blogging world use to describe you?

funny

thoughtful

good cook

4/What country would you most like to visit and why?

Bora Bora. Ok that's not a country but my sister went there recently and the pictures from her trip made me seriously jealous. I have no fear of tropical holidays since surviving the trip to Fiji.

5/ What is your favourite dish to cook and why?

Bon bons. They are my signature dish and so deliciously chocolaty. I could eat them everyday.

And my Nana Junes banana cake. It rocks! I just made some today.

6/Salt or sugar?

SUGAR. Everyday.

7/What are your must have make up or beauty items?

I love this question.

I swear by Proactive solution. It has worked for my skin for over 7 years now.

I use a great lancome moisturiser. I don't know the name but its expensive and it works.

Clarins beauty flash balm for eyes. No wrinkles. So far.

I love Chanel eyeshadow's. They last all day and are a great quality. You really get what you pay for.

Touche Eclat by YSL.

I like a good coverage foundation. At the moment its a clinique one but I use a Chanel one and a Lauder one as well. Depends on where I'm going. A great foundation brush helps. I have a good one by clinique.

Lancome definicils mascara I also swear by.

My secret weapon is blusher. I am loving clinique's iced lotus at the moment. They will probably discontinue it and I'll be screwed.

Just add perfume, lip gloss, and nail polish and I'm good to go. My go to never fail fragrance is coco by Chanel and OPI dutch tulips nail polish.

8/What are your favourite flowers?

Hyacinth, peonies, sweet pea's, tulips. My husband buys me lilies.

9/What do you think are your worst vices, honestly?

I am indecisive. I can whinge with the best of them. I also eat to much chocolate and don't exercise enough.

10/ at what time of your life were you happiest and why?

When I first met my husband and when we got engaged. I was so happy to be starting a great life with someone I loved so much. It was such a special time.

Thanks Lou for including me in this!
