Questions from Lauren & My Answers

“What is one thing about blogging you love and one thing you hate?”

I love the fact that I can share my passion for living a healthy and balanced life.

I don’t think there is anything that I hate really. I guess I wish I could download my thoughts automatically onto the screen as I have so many ideas but it would be a full time job to get them all out of my head and into blog posts.

“If you won millions on the lottery, what would you spend the money on?”

I’d make sure my family had homes of their own and were mortgage free and living comfortably.

I would give money to charity organisations that help the homeless. I believe everyone should have a roof over their heads and be able to come inside from the cold and it makes me so sad that this isn’t the case.

I would also donate money to children and animal charities.

I love seeing the world so I would definitely see more of it and perhaps stay a little longer than a normal week or two week holiday!

“When did you start blogging and what was your first post?”

I just had my 2 year blog anniversary 🙂 I should really write a post about it actually!

My first post was a recipe for cajun turkey burgers. You can tell it was 2 years ago because the quality of my food presentation back then was awful haha!! 😀

“Who are 4 of your favourite bloggers at the moment?”

You, Annabelle, Huda Pervez, Sarah Klaren , Shevy and Moms Cafe Blog

I know that’s 6 but the more the merrier 😉

“What blogging goals have you set for 2018?”

The only goal I have set, is to post more regularly 🙂 Smashing it so far!

“What is one thing you would like to do this year?”

Get out and about and have a stress free year. The best part of 2017 was taken up with renovating our house and I was stuck indoors project managing it. It was hard work but worthwhile as we love our house now!

“What blog post are you most proud of writing and why?”

I love writing up my recipes for healthy meals but I also love sharing my thoughts on general health and wellness. I guess I am hoping that I am inspiring someone out there to live a healthy lifestyle.

“What is your favourite media platform? (e.g. Twitter, Instagram, Facebook)”

I think Twitter is the most sociable platform and tend to spend more time on that than anything else. I love connecting with like minded people.

“What is one boxset you would recommend watching?”

Friends! Definitely! Can’t get enough of it! 🙂

“Tell me one weird fact about yourself”

I am a really emotional person but I am not at all sentimental. I don’t keep ‘things’ because of the memories they bring, I throw everything out! I hate clutter. If my house is cluttered, it makes me feel stressed out. I hate even thinking that there is lots of ‘stuff’ in the loft!

“What tips would you give to other bloggers, that have helped you?”

Don’t pay too much attention to the ‘stats’. Write what you love, post and promote your blog on social media and interact with and support other people. The rest will fall into place.
