Mumabulous is pretty bloody fabulous for tagging me and therefore nominating me for a Sunshine Award. Feeling the LURVE in the land of Blog.
“The Sunshine Award is an award given by bloggers to other bloggers. The recipients of the Sunshine Award are: “Bloggers who positively and creatively inspire others in the blogsphere”. The way the award works is this: Thank the person who gave you the award and link back to them. Answer questions about yourself. Select 10 of your favourite bloggers, link their blogs to your post and let them know they have been awarded the Sunshine Award!”
Here are my answers to these famous questions.
1. Favourite Time of the Year?
Just before it becomes unbearably hot during Summer. You know, when it’s warm all day but still cools down at night. When you can play all day but still sleep well.
I love early summer days.
2. Favourite Festive movie?
The Ten Commandments. Wrong season I know but it makes me think of family time when I was very young, huddled together on the lounge with my brother and sisters, watching the Rank Arena late into the night.
3. What is your Passion?
The incredible sensation of giving everything to something, or someone even. A new project, cooking, for friends, caring for my family. In my career as a teacher, the greatest reward comes after investing time and resources into a student and seeing results, even small improvements. Giving is my passion and it makes me happy.
4. Favourite Colour?
I love red and blue and green on my kids. Bright happy colours.
5. Favourite time of the Day?
Morning, before anyone else wakes up, or night, when everyone else is asleep. I love quiet time to myself.
6. Favourite Flower?
Lillies for their stamina in my vases and gardenias, for their scent.
7. Favourite Non-Alcoholic Beverage
Cranberry juice usually makes me feel like I’m doing something good.
8. Favourite Physical Activity?
I used to run and it’s something I loved to do. I hope to get fit enough again soon to do it more regularly.
9. Favourite Vacation?
I’m partial to the GC… Love me a tan, cocktails and some bling, in any order.

Thanks so much for the tag. I’ve never seen the Ten Commandments! I’ll have to check it out xx

They describe it as an epic and they are right. When you do get the chance, let me know what you think.
December 14th, 2012 at 20:51
Oh we had a Rank Arena too! I haven’t seen the 10 Commandments in aaaages. Might be time to relive some good memories 🙂
Thanks for linking up with FYBF. Feel free to include the FYBF button at the end of this post! 🙂

“Australia’s favourite colour TV”. I think that was the slogan. ;o)
Thanks for having me for FYBF. It was my first one!

I remember the old Rank Arena, that thing lasted for years! Excellent answers, I did one of these today too!
December 14th, 2012 at 20:51
I tell my kids at school stories about the Rank Arena. Their reactions make me laugh…
December 14th, 2012 at 20:51
Thank you for the tag!
Festive movie is a tough one for me.. I have a terrible memory for movies. But I can pinpoint where a lost super croccy or golden ninjago weapon is lying in hiding.
December 14th, 2012 at 20:51
LOL! That’s funny!
December 15th, 2012 at 20:51
Love your flower choices, especially lilies for their stamina. Same reason as mine! Favourite time of day is similar too though I don’t get much quiet time with two little ones. Evening is the closest and I’m always forcing myself to stay awake just for those moments yet I’m usually too foggy brained to appreciate them! Visiting via FYBF.

Quiet time is a rare commodity here. I crave it.
December 17th, 2012 at 20:51
I love cranberry juice as well! It really does make you feel like you’re being healthy!
Just a gentle reminder, that for IBOT we like to encourage people to post a new post. 🙂
December 17th, 2012 at 20:51
I know! It’s coming… I’m a slow coach ;o(
December 17th, 2012 at 20:51
Congrats on the award! I found you through the IBOT linky and the questions/answers were a great starting point for me to get to know you. Look forward to following you blog going forward!

early summer is the best, I’m so sad we’ve passed it already

Thankyou so much for tagging me, I really appreciate it, it’s an honour 🙂
I’m sorry to say that I’m not going to continue on with it at this stage – so hectic trying to get things organised for Christmas, need to cut back on some things… But thanks again, I enjoyed reading yours 🙂
