I have been tagged, by Brooke of Pure and Noble. I have to provide three answers to a series of questions (yes a week of revealing a bit about myself). Here we go again...
Three Names I Go By
Engracia
Mama
Grass
Three Places I Have Been
New Zealand, one of the most beautiful places on earth
Italy, so romantic
New York City, enough said
Three Favourite Drinks
Champagne, my drink of choice
Tea to start my day and beyond
Water, plenty of it
Three Jobs I Have Had
Solicitor (lawyer) for most of my working life
Book publisher for about 6 years (loved it)
Mama, toughest but best job by far
Three TV Shows I Watch
The news
Grand Designs, one day I want to design and build my own home on a country beach
Brothers & Sisters, pure escapist fluff I love it
Three Places I Would Like to Visit
Brazil, would be nice to pop in meet some of my cousins
South Africa, I've been seduced by the World Cup coverage
Kakadu National Park, I'm really keen to discover this place with the boys in a few years
Three Favourite Retro TV Shows
Three Places I Have Lived
Potts Point, Sydney
Paddington, Sydney
Darling Point, Sydney
Three Favourite Dishes
Vincisgrassi from Buzo Restaurant, a lasagna with porcinni mushrooms, prosciutto and truffle, so good I always take home an extra serving (try this recipe by Nigel Slater or if you own it, The Silver Spoon version)
Three Things I am Looking Forward To
The trip to France and Portugal with hubby and the boys
Having a romantic dinner with F in Paris (we've been to Paris many times but this is our first trip together)
Watching my boys grow into wonderful, caring and decent adults
I am supposed to tag three people, but I'm just going to tag one, Jane from My Pear Tree House (no obligation Jane, but over to you).
Have a happy day.
Nice to meet you :)Bonjour from France!
