Sweet Fabric [Search results for tagged] 

I was tagged ages ago by the lovely Chalk & Cheese. I'd decided today was the day & then Arthur's Circus tagged me too.

• Seven is the number of rings I wear all the time. It's ridiculous for a girl with hands my size & I look like a mafia wife but I don't care.

• Friday is my favourite day of the week - I run like a demon, drink with friends & fall in a heap.

• I love mornings best of all. The crispness of the air makes me feel alive.

• My favourite piece of jewellery is my wedding band. One of my school friends told me it would be & I didn't believe her. I was so in love with my engagement ring I couldn't imagine that a little piece of gold would be more treasured - but it is.

• I've known the date since I was 12 years old & we've been together for more than half my life.

• Grant Caroll made me remember than 7 8s are 56. He tortured me with that table in year 4 it's just about the only "times" I can remember - I was always bad at tables.

As for tagging other players - if you want to play consider yourself tagged.

First things first. I was tagged quite some time ago by the very lovely Kristy with a you make my day award, which was very sweet. Thank you.

Now I've been tagged by Chocolate & Steel for the six random things. I've only fairly recently done the 7 random things & I'm really bad at these games so I apologise in advance. I've used these Op Shopped cards as my springboard.

My Favourite Tea:
Earl Grey
My Favourite Outfit:
My Asian slash modern slash tree dress that I bought without trying on! It was bought from a guy who knows his stuff.
My Favourite Food:
It's a toss up between lollies & Burgen Rye toast with St Dalfour raspberry jam.
My Favourite Shoes:
Yep - it's the runners although I am pretty partial to my boots too.
My Favourite Flower:
Hydrangeas
My Favourite Book:
Recently, it's The Lying Tongue. In the last 5 years, it's The Kite Runner. Historically, it's The Outsiders.

Now, this is where the really bad comes in. I don't pass these things on. I'm not really sure why - I think it's linked to the whole chain letter caper when I was a kid. But...if you'd like to have a go. Consider yourself tagged.

I was tagged some time ago by the lovely Alexandra for the book tag that's been doing the rounds.

the rules are that I, as the tagged, must:

1. Pick up the nearest book.
2. Open to page 123. The book I have is only 98 pages so I've opened to page 23.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the next three sentences.

So here I go...

She began to put out the things for dinner. Now she wished that she had remembered to bring a tablecloth -it made everything look so much nicer. But she had remembered spoons and florks, and her mother had put in plates.

I've posted about The Deserted Cottage before. Oh how I wished to be Maggy Ann & have rolicking adventures in the woods & wheel a bodge to our very own deserted cottage in a lovely clearing in the English countryside.

I won't tag anyone but if you'd like to have a crack consider yourself tagged.

Kristy tagged me. She wants to know 6 things that made me happy today. Actually she wanted to know last week but I was still at Slide Night.

So today these things have made me happy:

1. listening the the small girl on the phone receiving her birthday phone calls.
2. the smalls hugging each other.
3. walking along the street in the winter sun arm in arm with the big girl.
4. the date - he's especially good because he did the coffee run this morning.
5. the smell of eucalyptus oil.
6. the run.

I haven't forgotten the music meme. It's coming.

I won't tag anyone but if you'd like to play consider yourself tagged.

I was tagged ages ago by August Street & then Drewzel for this 7 songs gig.

**** WARNING **** music lovers should read no further!

Music is not really important to me. I like stuff, I just don't know what I like & because I share an office/studio/tip with the date I just leave it all up to him.

The pic above is the list (compiled by the date) of seven songs I've been listening to lately & enjoying. I think he's done pretty well considering I just mumble at him if I like something & grumble at him if I don't like it. I guess I'm just a background kind of girl.

This shouldn't come as a surprise. I spent alot of time with my Grandma as a kid & she always had the radio tuned to "easy listening 3MP".

The date loves music! I'm a sad disappointment to him. We are currently in negotiations. I want him to host the blog on a Monday for Mixtape Monday. He wants to know what's in it for him! .....Hmmm.

I won't pass this on but if you'd like to have a crack at it consider yourself tagged.

I owe a fair few tags around the place.

I really honestly tried for the 6th in the 6th as tagged by the Potty Mouth & Jimmy Trickle but I wasn't at all happy with the image.

Then mixtapezine gave me a lovely award.

So when she posted this I thought...BINGO. Here's something that they'll all appreciate.

Band name: Oleg Fedoseyev
Album name: (size of the) fight in the dog
Album cover: As pictured from here

Here are the rules.

1 - Go to "wikipedia." Hit “random”or click this. The FIRST random wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.

2 - Go to "Random quotations"or click this. The last FOUR or FIVE words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album.

Fun - have a crack.

you don't know about me.

I was not so recently tagged by the lovely bricolagelife. I'm mixing it up a bit.

6 crafty talents I'm a wee bit jealous of.

1. cathedral window quilt, 2. Kath, 3. April CAL square - Chocolate Delight, in Lime, 4. First Etsy Listing!, 5. Ciabatta, 6. tcb08

I wish I could:

Quilt like Leah (& Vicki if she had a blog).
Crochet like Lara.
Draw like Claire.
Take photos like Angela.
Cook like Pip.
& do anything 1/2 as well as Anna Laura. She is one multi-skilled crafter.

I'm tagging anyone who is secretly (or not so secretly) jealous. Let me know if you play along.

a few lovely folk have tagged &/or given me awards recently. I owe some people a drink.

I'd like to chink pretty drinks with these girls & maybe you might too.
