Although I reckon that most of the time the only people who read my blog are my mom and Luke, my number of followers is slowly increasing so I thought I’d let you all know a little more about myself. So without further ado…
Where I come from: Twenty-something years ago, I was born and raised in a town about 10 miles south of Birmingham. Then went to Nottingham for University, which involved a year living in Lyon, France. After I graduated I went to Uganda to volunteer then I came back home and moved out with Luke into our own place.
What I do: I studied French at Uni (with a little Italian thrown in for good measure) but my job involves nothing French related. I won’t bore you with the details but it’s in the legal sector.
Why Pumpkins and Puddings? To cut a long story short, I wanted a new blog name and these are nicknames that Luke has for me, amongst many others. How kind of him – pumpkins are round and orange but, hey ho, there could be worse. Pumpkin also happens to be what my mom called me when I was in her tummy:)
If you want to know more about me then just ask in the comments below :)
i love reading posts where the blogger explains more about themselves. i like to kind of ~know who i'm reading about.
ReplyDeletenottingham uni was one of my first university choices, but i ended up going to reading and then hull for reasons that would take forever to explain.
my dad always called me pudding when i was little. though it turned into 'pud' towards my teenage years. haha.

Aw Nottingham was a lovely university.
DeletePudding has also been shortened to 'pud' for me too! I also get called pop tart, pudding pops, pup. Think Luke has an obsession with words beginning with P! X
My friends about to head of to Nottingham for uni so I have a reason to go visit it for the first time!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to hear more about your time in France and volunteering in Uganda!
