Blog Your Heart Out

18 March 2014 by Eileen

Recently, both Tami from Mummy of Two and Pippa from Red Rose Mummy had tagged me into Blog Your Heart Out Meme.  These are my answers to the questions!

Blog Your Heart Out

Question 1. Who/What encouraged you to start blogging?

My husband’s friend’s sister-in-law, Anna Guest, who encouraged me and often passed me her contacts to help me along.

Question 2. How did you choose what topic to blog about?

I started off blogging about my children doing modelling and product reviews.  Now both my children are in school and don’t get as many casting or modelling opportunities, so I changed the topics I blog about.  I like to blog about Chinese food recipes; Chinese crafts like Origami, Chinese New Year Lanterns and Chinese culture.

Question 3. What is something most people don’t know about you?

I nap every day for an hour when the kids are at school and I hate roller coasters.

Question 4. What three words describe your style?

Simple, plain and boring!

Question 5. What do you love to do when you are not blogging?

I love to watch Korean drama and sleep.  But I spend most of the time cleaning. I like a clean house!

Now I tag Anna from intheplayroom

    I most definitely want to nap when all mine go off to school – I have a lot of sleep to catch up on!

    Can’t believe you manage a nap during the day! I hate roller coasters too – we will have to make sure we go to Alton Towers on the same day and let our menfolk do the big rides!
