I met Paloma at a Tweetup in Ealing. It was towards the end of the night and it was almost a fluke that we met, and a very happy one at that. At the time she worked for the Ealing Gazette and she interviewed me for it. This was a marker for our future friendship: she is generous, giving and always looks for opportunities to help people. She really is a true friend and is now my chief bridesmaid at my wedding in July. When I met her I thought she was beautiful, nice, sweet, smart, a decent person and great company. All things turned out to be true.
However, it was a little embarrassing doing the Flowers of Holland competition challenge which is hosted on their Facebook page, because I learned that, even though we know a lot about each other, there is quite a bit I don’t! Almost like a Mr and Mrs challenge where the guy does really badly. For the challenge, if you guess your best friend’s favourite flower correctly you are entered to win a bouquet of flowers. Which is pretty cool so take the challenge yourself.
I will find out soon if my answers were even slightly correct, but what I do know is that we have loads in common: we have the same anniversary with our fiancees’, got engaged at the same time, are the same age, are the youngest with two older siblings…the list goes on. You can take part in the competition yourself here.
What is my friend’s favourite cafe?
It will be somewhere amazing that no one else had heard of yet. She is good at finding the buzzing places before they are trendy.
What’s my friends’ favourite place to shop?
She has good style but is also not too frivolous. I reckon she might like Topshop and will also know lots of out-of-the-way boutiques and shops that no one else knows about.
What’s my friend’s favourite city?
London I reckon. It is an amazing city and she grew up in London.
What’s my friend’s favourite movie?
Oh, hard one. Maybe Dirty Dancing? It is pretty classic and most women like it.
What’s my friend’s favourite flower?
Roses I think. Paloma is elegant.
What’s my friend’s favourite fragrance?
Maybe something from Dior.
I hope I got some of these right! I now nominate two excellent bloggers, http://teatimeinwonderland.co.uk and http://www.lookwhatigot.co.uk/ to do the challenge. Good luck gals!
Take the challenge yourself and leave your link below, I would love to read it.
