About me

Who am I?

I’m Emma, 32, red haired, brown eyed, compulsive dieter.

What do I do?

By day I am HR guru extraordinaire, by night I am uber-mummy to Sam (4) and perfect wife to Craig. * Here and there I try to fit in blogging and a fledging knitting business, A Close Knit Family.

 

What do I like?

Exaggerating (see above). Things that are green – eyeshadows, emeralds, handbags, dresses, shoes, kiwi fruit, apples, mojitos. My family. My iPhone. My iPad.  The internet. Diet coke with ice. Ray ban aviators. Cheese. Kit Kat Chunkys. Neil Diamond. Nail varnish. Wedges (both shoe & potato). Make up. Glee. Criminal Minds. Vodka. Beer gardens. Lilies. White zinfandel.  Curry. My breadmaker. Aprons.  Knitting. Dorothy Perkins. Dresses with leggings. Dr Martens. Tattoos.  My dad’s business Bread and Basil. Pulling stupid faces.

What don’t I like?

Feet. Littering. Rude people. Mushrooms. People who boast. Coriander. Tequila. Cats. Granny Murray. The fact my sister lives in Australia. Soap operas. Justin Bieber. David Blaine. The word ‘moist’.

 I want:

To be a domestic goddess. A SMEG fridge (green). A new oven. More kitchen space. A fully decorated house. 2 small dogs called Gary & Ian. Hair that reaches my waist. More shoes. World peace (obviously). 4 day weeks. A vegetable patch.  Someone to pay my next account off. To win the lottery so I can retire and spend my days playing with Sam and knitting.

I don’t want:

To be fat and unhealthy  anymore. To lose who I am under the wife/mummy/employee etc labels. Spots.
