Do you ever get tired of eating what seems like the same thing for dinnerweek after week. I try to fix somethings a little different but, I end up feeling like I always eat the same foods by habit maybe. I have gotten to the point...

emmaoxley I am so in agreement with you. I got so fed up of the same foods all the time so I started to buy recipe magazines or books. With the magazines I would tear out recipes that appeal and put them in a recipe folder that I made. Each week I go through this...

emmaoxley I'm not sure about a title but the book would definately be fiction. I'm always trying to start to write a book but struggle to come up with a storyline that hasn't already been done to death. I then get fed up and delete whatever I've done, which one day I...

I would choose Edward Cullen, because his character is the most perfect person ever! He is very nice and he only thinks of the one person in his entire 100 years of life! He is like a dream come true every girl would ever want!...

emmaoxley I would choose Robert Pattinson without a doubt. I love his sense of humour and the fact he is so down to earth and doesn't take himself seriously. He's a genuine guy who doesn't confirm to all the hollywood hype and bull. If I ever see him around London I...
