Believe it or not, I have been kindly been nominated by two people for the Liebster Award which is super nice of them. A big thank you to Alli from wormal blog and Lia from happiness is a piece of cake for being so lovely and mentioning me on their amazing blogs!
My first two Liebster Awards are in a post here if you are interested in checking them out too!
Rules
- Thank the blogger who nominated you
- Answer the 11 questions the blogger asked you
- Nominate at least 5 bloggers
- Create 11 original questions for the nominees to answer.
Alli’s Questions
- If you could only have one drink (NOT WATER) for the rest of your life, what would it be? Diet coke!
- What was one of the best sarcastic remarks youβve made? Oh I have too many to choose from obviously. I know I have made some good ones when I was younger that have been remembered. I said once in reference to my Grandad’s driving that it would be quicker if we towed him. That comment has definitely stuck for years!
- Would you rather discover a new color or a new texture? New colour, I’m not sure why!
- Where is your dream vacation spot? New York, Maldives or Santorini. They are all dream locations to me
- Would you rather have 3 ears or 3 eyes? 3 ears because I could hide it with my hair! You might say you could hide the eye with a fringe but everyone knows hair in the eye is super painful
- Whatβs your favorite type of food and what dishes do you like most? I love a good spaghetti bolognese or classic burger
- When was the last time you read a book for fun? I’m currently reading Cormac McCarthy’s The Road and I recently finished Gone Girl
- What is your ideal/perfect partner like? Appearance wise; tall, dark hair, tanned and tattoos. Oooo and I love blue eyes and a nice smile (i.e. my boyfriend in a nutshell). Personality; somebody who is going to care for me, who supports and motivates me and is genuine. I do think we need to share a lot of core values too in terms of politics and philosophy, or at least enjoy healthy debates.
- If you had to lose one of your 5 senses (vision, hearing, touch, smell, taste), which one would you lose? Taste because at least then I would stop being so fussy!
- What is your favorite blog? (besides mine of course) Ohhh I can’t choose! For makeup, I love catflicksandmattelips and classyamour. For fashion I love ainsleylouise. I also adore jessicajadebeauty, jessicariga and marble beauty. Ahh too many! I have definitely missed loads off here… I love everyone I follow!!
- Favorite dessert? Warm chocolate fudge cake and vanilla ice cream.
Lia’s Questions
- Your favourite holiday destination? see Alli question 4
- Your dream meal? See Alli question 6 combined with question 11, hehe!
- Your house is on fire, one thing to grab.. what would it be? My cat, Bradley
- What inspired you to blog? Other people. The community has always been a love of mine and the kindness within it just warms my heart, aww
- Biggest blogging achievement so far? Becoming ellamaygarrett.com was fabby. I think being recognised by some of my favourite blogs is pretty darn cool too. Also, when pinkfordays did her Perfect Party Series on me I cried so much! I have to mention all the times somebody has ever uttered the word “inspire” with reference to me, as well. Nothing beats that.
- One 2017 goal? Be as happy as I can be and make as many people around me happy
- Favourite person in the world? Celebrity, Emma Watson. Someone I know, Adam (my boyfriend)
- Best memory as a child? Getting my cat
- Most embarrassing thing thatβs happened to you? Any time that I trip over in public! I remember falling flat on my arse next to the canteen line at school before…
- Sun or rain? S U N
- Are you an introvert or an extrovert? Most people would say introvert I think but it depends who I am around. I am an introvert with those who introverts and vice versa. I think I can be very different depending on who I am around.
My Questions
- Have you ever given blood?
- What was the last photo you took on your phone?

- What was the best thing that happened today?

- Do you have any weird scars?
Congrats again dear Ella!! I love getting to know more about you π
I’m always impressed by sites that are self hosted, I find myself noticing it more and more, to the point where I feel like I want to do it, but I can’t leave my blog alone even for a day, so I don’t know when I would do it π
Thank you for the nomination as well π
Thank you lovely!! I haven’t paid for the ability to have fancy themes and being able to do more with my blog because it confuses the hell out of me so just being ellamaygarrett.com is good enough for me!! I don’t know how I would leave mine, let alone how you could!? Haha xx
Fair enough! I’ve been thinking about one day going fully self hosted, like moving away from wordpress.com completely and making my own site, but then I’d have to go off for like a week and I don’t think I could do that π
I’m too nervous as I don’t even know where to start with it all!! Haha, ahh bless you! I love seeing you post all the time, what would we do without you!? Xxx
Congratulations dear. xx
Thank you so much lovely xxx
Sun or rain?
R A I N.
If you lived where I do I’m almost sure you’ll pick rainπ
Great reading your answers Ella
Hahahaha!! I’ve had too much rain in England π I love the sun! Thank you lovely xx
Congrats on the nomination!
It’s funny that you tagged me because I literally JUST got done writing an award post where I tagged you! Lol. But thank you, of course. It’s always fun to do these π
And lol at your favorite childhood memory being getting your cat. That’s me. Like a million times. If I wouldn’t sound stupid if I was asked that in a job interview, I’d be like well, when I was 8 I got a puppy. I named him Gizmo and he was amazing. π
Ahh that’s so weird ππ!! Hahahaha, I do shit like that in job interviews. I got asked about my hobbies and I talked about Harry Potter for ages π©… I got the job!! π xxx
Lmao! That’s amazing. π
I actually nominated 2 other people you nominated too. (In my other award post) lol
What!? That’s so weird omg hahaha
Congratulations on your award Ella and thank you for nominating me! I totally agree that hair in the eye is painful!!! I answered this question before as well but my reasoning for 3 ears was that I have terrible eyesight and contacts for 2 eyes is expensive enough! π
Thank you so much lovely! Oh my god I love that reply, what a brilliant answer hahahah xxx
Hahahahaha just looking out for my wallet π
You know! Hahah
Congrats on these awards!
Thanks darling!! Xx
Well done on your nominations! I’d love to visit Santorini too – it looks stunning! I also agree about the introvert/extrovert thing. I mainly identify as an introvert but there are situations I can be extroverted π
Thank you lovely!! Nice to know some other people are the same as me! Santorini just looks so Insta doesn’t it!? Beautiful place xxx
It does! The houses are such beautiful colours x
Ali’s questions were so interesting! Really made me think, especially the one about the discovery of a new colour or texture. I think I would choose colour as well, though it seems impossible
She had some fantastic questions didn’t she!? Crazy when you think about the concept of colours that don’t exist xxx
I’m so glad I was able to make you happy with my post about you. You are inspiring!! π
You’re the best! Xx
You are <3
