Okay so let me start by saying a big thank you to http://grassandlemonade.blogspot.co.uk for my nomination for the Liebster Blog Award. A few weeks back I was nominated for the sunshine award but for one reason or another, never got round to doing the featured post-not this time!

"This is an award to celebrate blogs with 200 or less followers and ultimately tell someone how much you love their blog! The nominations are chosen by bloggers and given to the bloggers.

When you receive the award, you post 11 random facts about yourself and answer 11 questions from the person(s) who nominated you. You pass the award onto 11 other blogs (make sure you tell them you nominated them!) and ask them 11 questions. You are not allowed to nominate the blog(s) who nominated you! (To get the button, right click the picture on my page and save the picture to your compute. You can then upload to your blog.)"
