I meant to post yesterday but we had a little party and I was helping CBC tidy his house.
The lovely Angela at Tracing Rainbows did a taggie thing and I thought it would be fun to join in. I wont tag anyone because I know we're all busy, but if you do decide to do it, drop me a comment and I will come and read:
Eleven Questions to answer
1.What was your favourite sweet as a child?
There were many but the ones I always remember feeling excited over were those pink foam shrimps and those gummy bears, the slightly hard ones that were penny sweets. I have a lasting childhood memory of buying 40 pence worth of these whilst watching The Box of delights one Christmas!
2.Historical novel, romantic fiction, or detective story?
Mmmm, I'd probably say Detective novel but usually historical or days gone by setting, not the modern blood, guts and gore sort. I do like a nice chaste historical romance!
3.Where in the world is your heart ‘at home’?
Well, home where I live in Essex but in the Chilterns, there is a certain Hill that I heart belongs to.
4.Nigella, Delia, Jamie, or HFW [or another?]
I don't really watch cookery programmes but I have all Delia's cookery course books- my Mum went to a signing by her when I was about 6 weeks old, taking me with her and Delia commented on what a small baby I was!
5.What is your favourite season of the year? Why?
I love August, it's sunny and I am on holiday! Also really like early April as the weather is usually surprising you with how beautiful Spring is!
6.What was your first car?
I've never owned a car or had a driving lesson but the first car I remember my Mum owning was a pale blue Morris Minor.
7.Which aspect of housework do you find most difficult?
HATE washing floors!
8.At this very minute, where are your house keys?
They are in my handbag, slung on the floor
9.What is your favourite ‘Christmas’ food?
Mmmm, turkey and those pigs in blankets! I detest all sweet Christmas fare!
10.Who is your favourite cartoon character?
Well, I will always have a soft spot for Princess Kneessaa from the Ewoks cartoon of the 80's!
11.What colour is the chair you are sitting on right now?
Wooden foldup chair in a sort of stripped pine colour with a floral cushion on it.
You can answer Angela's questions if you'd like, I like those questions and I am nosy to compare answers with you!
Ciao bella!

I'm glad you liked the parcel and hopefully it will be of some use to you. Your list is great too I remember the Ewoks.
ReplyDeleteUgh. Ewoks!
ReplyDeleteIt cannot be coincidence that "ewok" is an anagram of "crap".
Nice dalek though!
me and you are opposites in christmas food. you like the meat, and i like the sweet. :)
ReplyDeleteyou're lucky you can get by without a car! Haha x
ReplyDeleteI'm all about the vegetables when it comes to Christmas, and lately I've been really carving a mince pie, so that's something to look forward to.
ReplyDeleteI always love these "random question" things - a neat glimpse into someone else's mind! I have to say, though, I've never met someone who DOESN'T like Christmas sweets! Maybe it's a cultural difference? Although, to be fair, my favourite Christmas sweet is pumpkin pie, which is really more of a savoury dessert.
ReplyDeletei love these kinds of posts. we get to know a little bit more about you! i love that you have never owned, or learned how to drive a car!! and certain candies bring back great memories for me, too!
ReplyDeleteMy heart belongs in a certain hill or couple.of hills in the Chilterns. Which hill has your heart? Here's my email so we can exchange addresses! Dawn_breaks@hotmail.com
