Week 25: Liebster Award

Hi there! about a month ago now I was nominated for a Liebster award by my blogger friend Louise who blogs over at LAM you should check her blog out. If I understand correctly the deets of this award are as follows:

• Nominate blogger with less than 300 followers
• Nominate between 3-10 bloggers
• Have to answer 10 questions
• Nominee puts forward 5 questions and nominator the remainder 5.

So here goes,

1. How/Why did you start blogging? I started blog last year July after my birthday, I had just finished university and immediately got a graduate job. I immediately moved to a town closer to the job leaving all family and friends behind. My fellow bless him tried his best to make sure I was happy where I was. So he took me to Brighton beach for my birthday weekend and when we got back I felt so lonely and started writing a few things on paper. Spoke to my sister same day and she suggested I start a blog and that's how I started blogging. The why part was more to vent and also pass time a way to cure the boredom.
2. What's your favourite outfit? This is a tough one because at present I don't really have a favourite outfit but I did have a maxi dress which I gave away to my cousin 2 years ago and that was my favourite "outfit" all by it self.
3. What's your favourite quote and who is it by? I don't know who wrote it but a friend taught it to me and it's stayed with me all my adult life "a frog never realises the importance of the river until it's dried up", I thought that this quote is timeless it really is. For me it speaks about taking things for granted and only appreciate it once you lose it.
4. Who was the last person you texted? My dad asking him to double check our hotel booking for Munich next month so excited.
5. What's your thing at the moment? Y'all I love jewellery but I am in love with it even more so now than before. I love my Wantable accessories box and the jewellery I received.
6. What's you favourite thing about blogging? Making friends and reading from like minded people, I love sharing my life and my experiences and so far only bloggers seem to understand that need.
7. Who inspires you? My mother, my mummy is the most hard working, strong and talented woman I know. She cooks, knits, bakes, reads, she's artistically blessed and she loves to smile and laugh and I am so honoured she is my mummy. I only hope one day I can be half as good a person, a woman and a mother that she is.
8. What's your style? Me a style I really don't think I have one, I guess I am more what makes me feel good and what's comfy is my style.
9. Whats your current favourite product? Well there too many to mention but Betty's wonder moisturising oil is my favourite product right now. I only got a sample size in my love me beauty box bug it's been a week plus and I still have enough to last the rest of this month and I can see the change in my skin (only applying on chest and boob area). 
10. What motivates you? Knowing that all the I am is because of the good Lord God, I am a self motivated person but putting God first has always served me well both in good and bad times. 

So that's me done, the last 5 questions which I made up myself I am asking to my nominees below. I love blog awards because they are just a fun way to help each other along, as we all know it's not easy place to crack but it's a well worth it one.

My nomination:

Miranda in the middle --> partially biased since she is my name sake but I love her blog and I wanted to show her some love.

The remainder 9 nominees are my readers and fellow bloggers, this is one only one gift I can give to thank all of you for reading my blog.
