so excited to visit you all soon + i shall be expecting you in this corner one of these days too! happy tbe everyone!

lookie, the april issue of the blogging magazine, the barrel, is up + ready!

they are celebrating spring this issue (love the purple cover!) with loads of interesting articles, tips, mouth-watering recipes (which i’d really wish to cop one of these days *fingers crossed* !), and an enlightening article about upcycling (yes, recycling’s got a twin!). to know more about that + other must-read items, see the barrel’s widget on my sidebar or better yet install one on your blog (it magically updates every month, so you’ll be sure to read the latest edition once it comes out, cool, right?). also check out their cool new blog site, for updates!

happy reading!

Questions:

1.  If you had to eat only one food for the rest of your life, what would it be?
2.  Do you write your blog posts in advance or the day you post them?
3.  Have you ever ridden in an ambulance?
4.  What is your favorite candle scent?
5.  Coffee or tea?

My Answer:

1.  i think i’d go for pasta, i can eat it the whole day, or the rest of my life!nom, nom!

2.  it depends on my writing mood + if i am writing a post with a particular date target. it also depends if i’ve got enough time in my hands. when i do, i normally write posts for memes in advance to be published at a future date, but most of the time, i post stuff i’ve written the same day.

3.  nope + never dreams of riding one for any reason.

4.  i used to like lavender-scented candles, but since lavender essence + scents are a big no-no for baby boys, i’d settle for anything relaxing + subtle, a faint whiff of citronella can’t be that bad too.

5.  i just recently developed the habit of preferring tea over coffee or any drink for that matter. i just hope my metabolism improves immensely by doing so 😉
