Blog Awards

I was recently rewarded two blog awards: The Versatile Blogger from lovely Amanda from Homely One and the Sunshine Award from equally lovely Christine from Sunshine & Lollypops.

Belated thanks to both ladies and all the other lovely followers (already 8 of them, yay!). So here are the 7 things you didn't know about me:

1. I was born in a country that no longer exists. I am talking about former Yugoslavia that fell apart in 1991. We came to Australia in 1996 and haven't looked back!
2. I have an unnatural love of books :). Seriously, I can't NOT have a book in my handbag or on my night stand and I usually read at least 2 books per week. My favourite writer is Jane Austen.
3. I am an aspiring writer. I am about to submit a short story so keep your fingers crossed.
4. I love the Australian bush. There is something otherworldly about the scorched red earth, gnarly trees and the big blue sky above.
5. I am drawn to water (perhaps it's something to do with being an Aquarian) and I love living so close to the beach which I visit often, particularly when I need to 'recharge my batteries'.
6. I love food both cooking and consuming it. At the moment, I am better at the latter, particularly anything containing chocolate :).
7. Last but never least - I couldn't be what I am today and be doing all the things I do without my extremely understanding husband and my lovely daughter. Yes, there is an occasional eye roll and a 'here we go again' mumble, but considering the numerous changes I make to things and plans, that is pretty good.

Hope you are all having a wonderful weekend.
