It’s back – over at ElizabethDhokia.com and the hashtag is #BEDN. I just looked and I haven’t done this since 2015.
And I’ll be back later today with the first prompt.
Hello April
Wow here we are in April already.
I managed to blog every day last month, which is pretty good for me. I have a new recipe to share with you in the next couple of days that we tried last month & have cooked a few times since.
I don’t think I’ll continue the Boho Berry challenge for April, I may revisit it in May but I don’t know if I’d blog it again or if I did I’d do it in a different way.
Not much else is happening apart from lots of birthdays and planning for our 2018 Afternoon Teal event.
Hope your March was ok
Mind your step

If you could go anywhere in the world, where would it be? Why?
Scotland. Why? Cause it’s where my family are from and the scenery is amazing!
Canada. Why? Wolves!! Scenery. And there is a personal reason I won’t go into here 🙂
New Zealand. Why? I visited there when I was 16 and I always wanted to go back. Love the place. And to visit family.
Crete. Why? My grandfather served there during World War II
and finally…
Wales. Why? Doctor Who of course!! Oh and the scenery.

The music of 2016
Create a playlist. What you’re listening to now, what encourages you, holiday favourites, etc..
A little while back (OMG back in 2013!) I made a playlist of my 100 (or was it 101) favourite songs. You can check out that list here and here.
Anywho, time for a new playlist – the music of 2016. Some of the songs may be the same, some will definitely be different. It’s a snapshot of the type of music I’m listening to now. Oh yeah, it won’t be 101 songs long 😉 For your listening pleasure, I’ve created it as a playlist on Spotify. You’re welcome.

Birthday memories
What was your most memorable birthday?
Honestly nothing really jumps to mind. I spent most of my birthdays when I was younger with family or friends. None of the big parties kids have these days. Simple things like pass the parcel and games like that. I remember having lots of fun and having awesome cakes – most from the iconic Women’s Weekly Children’s Birthday Cake Book (I still have the original edition even though it is slowly falling apart and the kids love choosing their birthday cakes from it) or ice cream cakes. Back when birthdays were simple but awesome.
I also remember my 21st. My partner at the time thought the new Star Trek was more important so I went and got drunk with some friends and had an awesome night at Karaoke.
Another memory was getting to choose what we had for tea for our birthday. If I remember correctly my choice was often Chinese.
