what makes you happy?......in five words or less...?
Always the sea and my family
Which talent would you most like to have?
I would love to be a novelist
Which words or phrases do you overuse most?
what would you like for dinner?
can you help empty the dishwasher?
What is your favourite book
I love books, I have a whole room devoted to them from floor to ceiling. Each time I think I have a favourite I read another book and trump it. I would have to say that I could read Nancy Mitford - love in a cold climate - over and over again.
If you could go anywhere in the world for a creative retreat where would it be?
Anywhere in the Mediterranean.
What about you? what is on your list?
It's so difficult to pin down the answers isn't it? The sea so beautiful in all it's moods and I'm with you on the books so many to chose from...
ReplyDeleteFun questions and images to accompany. If I could go anywhere??? It would be somewhere in the mountains!!!
ReplyDeleteI like how you added the photos to your answers! The sea looks so peaceful!
ReplyDeleteLovin your book answer...I too am a bookworm...a girl can just NEVER have enough!!

This is a fun exercise, Justine. I will have to check out some of your favorite reads. I love that last shot -- the colors are wonderful!
ReplyDeleteExcellent answers! I'd love to spend a few days in that book room of yours!
ReplyDeleteI agree, the Mediterranean would be a fantastic place to get your creative juices flowing....and I need to check out your favorite books....I have not read any of them.
ReplyDeleteI so loved the image of the orange peels
ReplyDeletei loved the orange peels, so creative. i need a book room, instead there are books in every room.
ReplyDeleteThose aren't easy questions to answer - my mind would change with my mood.
ReplyDeleteI think I need to try Nancy Mitford again. I tried once before and couldn't get into it, but I think I was too distracted. Is there a particular book of hers that you would recommend? Love your photo of the orange peels and the sea.
ReplyDeleteGreat list and photos. Now that I think about it I ask my kids to unpack the dishwasher also...
ReplyDeleteLove the orange theme of your books, ties nicely with the Mediterranean picture.
ReplyDeleteGreat list, & love the photos too- I'll have to think about my answers to those questions.
ReplyDeleteyour bookshelf must look wonderful with all those orange Penguin classics!! I love the orange and blue shot at the end too - you do such a good wonderful job with color. : )
ReplyDeleteWhat great questions !! Love your answers and love your photos. That last picture is so amazing and so inspirational...the colours and the lines and shapes, it's just so beautiful and very representative of the Mediterranean. xx
ReplyDeleteYour photos made reading your answers a fun trip! I love Tim Winton in fact I could happily read that whole pile!So nice to meet you!

Loved this, the colours and the pics. Mine; always family, friends and countryside. Comfort reads, Jane Austen but my favourite novels change. My creative retreat is Cornwall, it quenches the thirst of a parched and weary soul.
ReplyDeleteHi, Justine! So lovely to get to know you a little better! The books sound wonderful, I might have to peruse a couple of them myself! The Mediterranean calls my name, too!
