♥ Favourite clothing brand? On me, no particular brand but I love the look of Michael Kors.

♥ Best childhood memory? Mom's silvery, glittery Christmas trees and everything underneath.
♥ Ever been to Africa? Yes,to Egypt a few years ago.
♥ Ever rolled anybody in toilet paper? Well almost, Martin dressed as a mummy one Halloween... we used fabric but it might've been easier with toilet paper. Unless it rained.

♥ Favourite day of the week? Friday after work and Saturday morning.
♥ Favourite flower? Any in white.
♥ Favourite - Hot dog or Chinese food? I'm not a huge fan of either. I do eat more hot dogs than Chinese dishes though.

♥ Who was you latest e-mail from? Have to check. Hold on a sec... boring work related from a Chinese supplier.
♥ Where would you like to shop more if you could afford to? I'd love to go wild in a Kate Spade shop.
♥ Bed time? I try to be in bed by 11 pm on week days. Don't always succeed though.

♥ What are you up to now? I'll try to find an appropriate photo for this post and then start working.
♥ Favourite color? White and green.
♥ How many tattoos? On me, none. On Martin an anchor on his leg which he got when he was a seaman many many moons ago in the mid/late 70's.
Ha, there you have me. In a nut shell!
Se där! Några svar har vi gemensamma. Kul att få veta lite mer om dig. Är inte Kronan tillverkad i min gamla hemstad Sollefteå?! Jag har svarat i min blogg. Ha en bra dag! :-D
