Well people who read this can be my guests. I'm not tagging anyone myself, it's not always appreciated and I will only give a few suggestions... Zorra, Gea, Marleen (of buster), Aranka, Monique????
Lien I enjoyed reading this a lot but I do have a question too: this last photo, to which point/question does it refer?
ReplyDeleteDa's leuk om te lezen...! (En aardig dat je aan me gedacht hebt...;-)))
ReplyDeleteEnne eeeh in mijn 'kippenboek' staat dat kippen alle groenten mogen behalve.....broccoli....!
@ mar1...ooh, dat wist ik niet, wat krijgen ze daarvan dan?
ReplyDelete@ Ilva, well I didn't really have the photo's that are to the point(s), but I wanted to liven it up a little with things I like.
This last one I choose because my sign is Libra, and though I'm not really a believer in astrology, I do tend to be like that; weighing issues and looking at it from all sides. And I'm starting to look a bit like her too I'm afraid :(
..well except my head is bigger ;)
ReplyDeleteI just have though of one extra point at Q 11)
- I really like to go and eat out in very good (starred) restaurants (in England at locanda Locatelli's, Blumenthal's fat duck,
Gary Rhodes, Michel Caine and Raymond Blanc. And a nice trip to El bulli in Spain....
Oh my goodness, this was totally delightful.
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed all your answers.
Like your books! More cleaning . . . probably not me.
And I have dust under my bed too.
Love the upgrade idea!!
Leuk om jouw antwoorden te lezen. Het antwoord op vraag 7 is heel herkenbaar.
ReplyDeleteBij ons gaan de broccoli stronkjes linea recta naar de cavia's. Ik heb er nog 2 in de aanbieding. Interesse?
Pfff, wat een klus om zo eens over jezelf na te moeten denken. (Hoewel, die van het stof onder het bed in mijn geval niet echt erg moeilijk zou zijn ).
ReplyDeleteErg leuk om die kanten van je te leren kennen , Lien.
