Second of all are my picks, in no special order...

1. Alyssa @From freeways to fjords has just moved over from Sunny California to Rainy Bergen. I have the extreme pleasure of not only knowing her in real life (thanks to the internets) but also working with her (so we probably would have met anyway, haha weird) She writes about her new experiences and adjusting to life in a new country! plus she is definitely a sweetheart!

2.  Next up is my dear dear friend Rebecca French who blogs over at The Veritable Shiz which showcases here amazing illustrations. you all definitely need to see them. I was lucky enough to get to spend a year living just down the hall from this girl and her high spirits kept me entertained a lot, she is one of my favouritest sweethearts in the whole world!

3. Sarah Elizabeth is a Norwegian blogger who uses her blog The Beara Necessities to write about fashion, healthy eating and generally a little bit of everything. She is going to be Russ this year which will be super fun for her and great fun for us to read! This sweetheart is awesome at leaving aleays leaving lovely comments on my blog. ps she is an awesome photographer as well!

4. This is an obvious one for me Jello the lovely and artistic writer of Jello's Kitchen This girl has it all, seriously she is funny, kind, artistic (check out her etsy page) and just down right a bonafide sweetheart. Her blog is never the same and i always enjoy reading what she has to say!

5. And last but by no means least is Talitha at TTimeChatter, I have only just started reading her blog but i really love her outfit of the days and her take on fashion. she also does some wicked fashion DIY's!

I got the sunshine award!

Yay i woke up and found that Hot Pink Combat Boots had given me the sunshine award! Thank you!!!

I have to say it was the perfect time to receive it as i was on my way to the hell that is the dentist and from there the day only got worse! think money troubles, constant pain and a lot of tears but today is a new day and the sun is shining, so i shall stop my moaning and get down to business!

The rules for the Sunshine Award are: 
1. Thank the person who gave you the award and link back to them.
2. Tell us something about yourself.
3. Nominate 10 other bloggers.
4. And let them know you awarded them!


1. Done! see beginning of post.
2. Some things about me....
 I once wore pink everyday for about a year, i don't mean like head to toe in pink but at least something on my body was pink everyday. I was that cool!
I am incredibly messy but actually quite organised and dream of one day having a craft room (yes i do intend to be one of THOSE people, who spend far to much and long in craft shops buying stuff they don't need-lets face it, i already am) and in my craft room with be a wall made of shelves and drawers all different sizes for me to organise my buttons and ribbons etc. again cool much!?
I was a vegetarian for 22 years until i decided to stop last summer and start eating chicken, my sister was a vegetarian for 15 years until she decided to stop a couple of years ago and now she really enjoys steak! goes to prove that children brought up vegetarians are not being brainwashed by their parents into hating meat.


3. nominate people! I hate to admit my uncoolness but i really don't know ten people on blogger who might actually re blog this! i tend to be a bit of a fan girl and just silently stalk cooler peoples pages but i will give it ago anyway.
