How exciting is this! Yesterday morning I turned on the WiFi on my phone having to find out that I have been nominated for the “Liebster Award”.

1. What is your guilty pleasure?
Chocolate, without a question. Especially now that I am in my third trimester of pregnancy I want a lot of chocolate. That will have to change once the baby is here though.
2. How long have you been blogging?
I started off blogging in 2010. This was just something I wanted to keep for my own records. It wasn’t a parenting/mummy blog at all. I only documented my day to day life. Until the day I found Fatmumslims Blog. I blogged up until the time I went to New York. Then I took a break when I gave birth to Matthew. I am fully into blogging again since 9th March 2014. Wouldn’t change it for the world because this is my proper hobby now.
3.What is your favourite thing about blogging?
Sharing photos, stories, advice and getting advice of other bloggers.
Also it is great to meet other mummy bloggers and share the same things with them. I love reading so many other blogs and it keeps me occupied when I am not after chasing Matthew around the house.
4. How did you choose your blog name?
I have never changed my blog name when I was doing my day to day life blogging in 2010 because even now as a parenting/ mummy bloggers it still “My little World”.
5. What makes you smile?
Waking up to my son standing beside my bed trying to wake me and saying “hello” in my face.
6. How do you take your coffee?
2 spoons of instant coffee (Nescafe) with a bit of milk and no sugar.
7. Where in the world do you live?
Republic of Ireland. A small town called Sligo in the North Western part of Ireland beside the Atlantic Ocean.
8. If you had 1 day to yourself, what would you do?
What I normally do, when I get a day to myself, either, reply to all my letters, go into town and do some shopping or clean the house. Sad I know, but it relaxes me.
9. What is your dream holiday?
I have seen a lot of places in Europe but I would really like to see Dubai, Thailand or China.
10. What is your favourite food?
There’s so much to choose from but a meal I would want to eat everyday would be Spagetti Napoli. Simple but delicious.
11. Are you a texter or caller?
Texter, even though I work on the helpdesk which makes no sense really.
