Therefore thank you so much Shari at Lauren's Closet and Taci at TaciStudio for this great award. Can I also recomend bloggers that if you haven't done so already you pop in to visit these blogs because you won't be disappointed.
The following is to clarify what this award is about:
"The Liebster Award is for bloggers with under 300 followers and the rules of the award is that the nominee must link back to whoever awarded them, write 11 random facts about themselves, answer the 11 questions from the award giver, and then nominate another 11 bloggers and make up 11 questions for them to answer.

Hi Amanda, great to see you have the Liebster award and interesting to read your answers. Hey spooky I don't like the restrictions of wearing a watch, I often have a little fob watch with me instead.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for nominating my blog, I actually had the Liebster award some time ago so I don't think I will get involved with it again but it's nice to be thought of.
I'm having a busy spell making stuff with an easter theme right now. Happy crocheting,
Sally xx

Congratulations Amanda! I like your answers, similar to what mine would be...white wine, thunder storms (I LOVE these!!) etc, and the 'watch' thing, I cannot wear a watch unless it has a battery and even then they seem to go wrong!! Must have too much electricity in my body haha !! :)
ReplyDeleteHello lovely Amanda, a lot has been happening in your life, have been busy with my night and day work and generally just tired :( I loved that book The Magician and love books like that. Congrats on the award nice to read some more about you.

Hi, Amanda! I saw on the news at RTVE last night the weather you guys have been having. It was very impressive to watch the tornadoes hit the ocean so close to the beach. And all the snow all over Andalucia. Just checking on you. I hope all is well with you and your family.
ReplyDeleteHello Maria Elena
DeleteSea Tornedos were further down the coast off Benidorm....quite impressive! Lots of snow up in the mountains but we never get any down in Alicante City although we did have two hail storms yesterday....nasty cold weather!!!
keep well
Amanda :-)
